like the title says, my GTX 560 Ti is currently running @ 405mhz core/810mhz shader/324mhz VRAM/30% fan/35°C. no more than 30 minutes ago it was running at stock clocks (900mhz core/1800mhz shader/2106 VRAM/30% fan/53°C)...i know those aren't "reference" clocks, but they are factory clocks - its an EVGA factory OC'ed model. at any rate, its been running fine 24/7 for ~2 weeks now. as you can see cooling isn't a problem, nor was it when the cards was running at the stock clocks (i'm cooling it with an AC Twin Turbo II). i monitor the vitals w/ MSI Afterburner, but have not (and probably never will) OC or overvolt the card. i've been crunching Einstein@Home BRP4 CUDA tasks on it since i got it, and they've been taking ~72 minutes on average to finish. i have yet to report any tasks that have run entirely under the reduced clocks, but the ones that were running when the clocks unexpectedly dropped look like they're going to take in the neighborhood of 150-165 minutes to finish. and i suspect that any tasks that run entirely at the reduced clocks (if i haven't fixed the problem by then) will take closer to 180 minutes, or 3 hours, to finish...
might anyone have an idea why my card has underclocked itself, even though its set to a profile in MSI Afterburner that matches the factory specs?
TIA,
Eric
