560M Performance drop.

Hello everyone,



I own a gtx 560m, it is less than 1yr in use.
I noticed fps drops in multiple games ( WoT, Arma3)
The fps fluxuates from a solid 50 a 7 in a matter of seconds.
It stays at 7fps for 3seconds before boosting back up to 50fps.

I decided to monitor my GPU..
You can find the .txt GPU log in the attachment.


Without result:
- Updated driver & rebooted
- GPU temperature OK
- Cleaned heatsink
- Changed settings to performance in Nvidia Control Panel.

I am clueless at this point.

 

Awesome to see all these topic views, +120, of which less than a hand full of people, 2%, decided to download a 226kb .txt file in an attempt to help me out.
The best of all is that 98% of these 'helpful' forum users took the time to read the title, click the link and read the post, without leaving a reply or suggestion....

 

Hello Hyperr. First of all, that is rather unfair of you on the other forum members. We understand that you have a problem and frankly speaking, in most cases, the majority of the aforementioned 'helpful' forum users read and don't respond simply because they don't know the answer. We are not paid to answer these questions and in most cases, we are tinkering with these stuff ourselves. If you require immediate assistance, call dell customer service. THIS is not a customer service forum and neither of us have any right to demand anything from each other just like that. I may have over-reacted but the truth is I have seen many a forum user that sign up, post a message and expect an immediate response. THAT is never going to happen.

Regardless, to answer your question. Your system temperatures appear to be in the green although a sudden FPS drop does point to GPU throttling. When was the last time you formatted your system?

 

GPU temperatures look good, shouldn't be throttling. Check your CPU temps? That might be throttling I think, and causing FPS to drop at the same time.

Check your GPU is on 'performance' mode in the nvidia control panel.
