Yeah I've seen some confusing messaging there as well but it's clear as day that your temps are very low so safe to say that either we're misinterpreting what it's trying to say or it's wrong.
Do you feel problems in gaming? Does the card really overheat? Probably not, so here's my simple solution: Don't fix what isn't broken. :-)
I have the non-GRE version of that GPU. It always says it’s throttling but I’ve learnt not to give that much thought. The temps are always good and frame rate doesn’t seem to suffer so it doesn’t seem to be throttled.
Well that's good to hear, I thought I had a faulty card possibly. Everything seems within normal ranges.
The throttling message is a bit misleading. In fact it tells you why your GPU can't reach higher boost clocks, and will say either temperature or TDP/power limit
If it were throttling, you would see reduced clock speeds and/or reduced power. However, I'm not seeing any graphs for frequencies and power. Have you checked?
If you don't know what tool to use you could check LACT: https://github.com/ilya-zlobintsev/LACT
this is when I start the test
when its idle's it will constantly flick from throttling - NO to Temperature(TEMP_HOTSPOT) almost every second
this shows the test running temp on test 60°C
junction temp on LACT 74°C
I had the same question a while back. It's not throttling, it's just worded weird. I turned off that message in mangohud and never had issues
