I limited TDP of my GPU using command:
nvidia-smi -pl 100.
After that i can not restore the productivity of my GPU using commands:
nvidia-smi -pl 200;
nvidia-smi -rgc;
nvidia-smi -rmc;
nvidia-smi -r;
nvidia-smi -i 0 -c 0;
but they didn’t help.
After tests in multiple games (Control; Hitman (2016)) and benchmarks (OCCT, Furmark) i noticed that my fps decreased in around 2.5 times, gpu clock in games is now at 950-1200mhz (instead of 1850+), TDP is now 100-120 watts (instead of around 200w).
nvidia-smi --query-gpu “power.limit” format=csv
says that power limit is set to 200w.
This problem stays at both Linux and Windows
How can I get back productivity of my GPU to default?
