Hi Everyone Have a new build, Nvidia 4090 with 13700k, and when I am using msi afterburner, it is not reporting the correct values for gpu, mem, volt, temp. They are super low and everyone once in a while, it will shoot up to what looks like the correct numbers, but then goes back to normal. Anyone else having these issues? I reinstalled and nothing so far.
What do you mean by super low? Video cards idle very low, power and clock wise; CPUs not as low but lower. So what do you mean by super low?
Which resolution are you playing at, which settings, what framerate cap, which games and what's your GPU usage? It may very well be that the 4090 is "bored" by what you're throwing at it and/or that you're CPU limited (yes, that even happens with a 13700K at 3840x2160@120Hz in various scenarios). The 4090 is a beast, too much so for various games at times.
So on the desktop, it shows the following values GPU 210 Mem 405 Volt 0 Temp 31 I swear with past builds, the GPU and Mem values were static numbers when using MSI Afterburner?
Have not played anything yet, just using on desktop at 4k resolution. This is a new build and on Win11.
Well, on the desktop there isn't much load, so it's just natural that the card is in a low power state until it actually needs the power. And yes, the memory will downclock, too. Put enough load on it and everything will rise. Of course, you could try to force the card to run at full 3D clocks all the time by setting the Windows power plan to "High Performance" and especially setting the Global Profile to "Prefer Maximum Performance" in Nvidia Control Panel (there are even more aggressive options available via Nvidia Profile Inspector), but I'd advise against that unless you're troubleshooting certain things. It's better to only use as much power as you actually need. On a side note, be sure that you're running the latest version of Afterburner when you get a new GPU.
In desktop mode you're using 2D clocks which normally are the values you see. Sometimes an app uses the 3D engine for a short moment (for example something in Chome which uses HW acceleration) which manifests as a "burst" to boost clocks. If you try playing 3D game you'll see what you call "static numbers" (which in reality aren't static as they change with GPU load).
This is normal unless you set your GPU to Maximum Performance mode for the Global profile. This has nothing to do with MSI Afterburner.
