My hybrid has sometimes (not all the time) been thermal throttling itself while being on max load and max fan speeds with temps pinned at 95C. I dont' understand the issue. I'm getting horrible FPS while the MHz stays below 500. The fan is running, there is ariflow, i can feel the water running through the pipes but still burning hot? Any ideas? Pic related
The weird thing is that is doesn't always happen.
Additional Info: Driver version 397.64 released on 05/09/2018
Card was bought new around 8 months ago
No visible dust on card and nothing out of the ordinary
Doesn't always happen, maybe once every 2 weeks

Your pump is not running with temps that high. If you're running a bunch of other apps that monitor sensors it might cause an issue. Otherwise it is probably the pump and you'll need to RMA the GPU.
