    Noticed sometimes when launching Wow the clock starts to erraticly go between 1300mhz-1950mhz which shouldn't happen when I have the game's profile set to maximum performance.(should be at minimum 1785mhz since its the base of the gpu)
    I tried running/closing the game 7 times in a row and 2 of those times the clock was going below 1785mhz and erratically go up and down while the other 5 tries it stuck to 1785mhz -1959mhz.
    My global power plan is set to Optimal with Maximum performance per game bases.
    I already tried DDUclean and re-install the driver but I notice it still occasionally happens.

    It should not be happening on Maximum performance.[​IMG]
    Closed the game and restarted and now it's working as intended.

    Give it a try with the latest version drivers or 460.89

    WoW has 3 seperate profiles now,

    only the Retail and Classic profiles work.

    Found this out when the Main profile that doesn't check subfolders wasn't applying the flicker fix setting.

    Is that one of the most stable drivers?Ever since i upgraded to a 3080 frametimespikes (micro stutters) started to be a pretty common occurance.Granted the current one I'm using (457.51) is kinda subpar too frametime wise.

    Same happens on that driver and It's still random when it happens.Sometimes I may launch the game and it never goes below 1785mhz then I could re-launch the game a min later and it would start in this "de-powered" state.Mainly WOW

    Also do you happen to play wow?Do you also get random micro stutters occasionally?
