i made a post earlier about this but it talked about a much broader problem. when i use it i get only 30-40 watts in geforce experience overlay. Every time I restart it it is capped at a different wattage. It says that it it using 100% of the gpu on the geforce overlay but in task manager it says its using 10%. when i try to auto tune the gpu (i suspect this to be the issue because it is i cannot set the powqer max to 100% see video). It says that i cannot do an auto tune when gpu is in high usage how can i fix this?

make your video an mp4

#

did you check event viewer for criticals/errors?

The system on a fresh wipe and has had no setting tweaked. 5600x, 32gb @3200, 3060 to

#

3060 ti

#

This has happened every time I have used this card

#

I am in contact with nvidia to find the culprit

hard sparrow
#

what is your psu spec

molten idol
#

650w

#

I could draw well over 40 w with my old gpu

hard sparrow
#

is this a new gpu or you have had it for a while? nvidia support is useless they never give an answer

molten idol
#

New gpu

hard sparrow
#

i would do rma

molten idol
#

I already have replaced it

hard sparrow
#

so you have had two 3060ti's with the same 30-40w issue?

molten idol
#

Yes

hard sparrow
#

then its a psu issue

#

what model psu do you have

molten idol
#

Idk it’s an nzxt 650w

#

I have a h1

#

I also have replaced the riser with a pcie gen 4

hard sparrow
#

thats a pc case

molten idol
#

Yeah it has a built in psu

hard sparrow
#

so its a prebuilt and you upgraded the gpu, its not built in, you can remove it

molten idol
#

It’s not prevuilt

#

It’s custom

#

With my old gpu there was no power limit

hard sparrow
#

what was your old gpu

molten idol
#

1650

hard sparrow
#

since you replaced two gpus i would think the issue is with other components not nvidia

molten idol
#

I’m pretty sure it’s a software bug because I am stuck unable to change the max power draw on my card because GeForce experience will not change it if it is at its current max usage

hard sparrow
#

if you did a clean whipe how can it be software?

#

i mean it can be a version issue

#

@molten idol have you tried a new power supply?

molten idol
#

i have not tried a dif power supply
