I would try the following...

Uninstall any overclocking software like MSI Afterburner etc as they conflict with Global Wattman.

Reboot computer into Safe Mode and use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to uninstall AMD Radeon Drivers.

Reboot computer into Normal Mode.

Install AMD Radeon Drivers.

Reboot and test.

Have you saved any profiles in Radeon Settings?
Temp seems fine as does Memory speed, it's only the core speed that is reduced.
Core speed should be 1224
Memory speed 1750

something definitely hookie with your gpu on the desktop alone your gpu core clock should be reading 300MHz not 214MHz I'd have to say that somewhere somehow some setting has become borked I'd defo do the DDU and reinstall the driver

214MHz is the minimum state for that GPU.

What do you mean by fluctuating clocks and voltage. That sounds like normal behavior to me.

We can't really help you unless you give us more details than this vague statement.

So maybe it's PSU issue or even mobo not able to deliver 60-75W through pci-e.

1) Try another PSU
2) Try gpu in another rig.

Try running that game with lower settings, possibly the 2Gb Vram isn't enough to cope with any in game updates they may have done

I would consider a fresh install of Windows at this point. Something might be borked.

This would eliminate any software related issue. If that doesn't improve anything, that would narrow it down to a hardware problem.

I'm pretty certian that running FurMark will cause your card to do just this in order to protect your VRM's...is it happening when you do NOT run FurMark?

looks to me that under that vddc your card is not ''boosting'' to max bios set volts [.8438 idle voltage to 1.15 load voltage ] I would think to hold its full load stable clocking [bios set ] it should be around 1.xxx maybe say 1.15v

I don't know much about a 460 but there is a idle volt that's low and then when the card gets a load it ''boosts to the max bios setting ssay to 1.15 and maybe why your gpu-z looks so erratic under load

like a guy said above test the card in another computer

I was looking for a review site with gpu-z shots to show this not even techpowerup and its there own software ,,,lol.....


if you had installed a newer driver may try to do a clean uninstall of it and reinstall or just try a older one that 18.9.2 is a latest driver and could have a bug that in turn may cause this ?

with that I would install a know working older driver and retest things

your screen shot shows you running AMD Crimson 16.6 why are you running such an old driver you need to be running one of the Adrenalin versions the latest of which 18.9.2 or if you prefer to stick to an WHQL version then Adrenalin Edition 18.5.1 you can get either from here

https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/radeon-400-series/radeon-rx-400-series/radeon-rx-460
i try all versions
