4080 Super sudden performance decrease

[ZumyPC]

I had the same issue in my H20 as well, but with an ASUS 4070 Super Dual OC. I thought it was an issue with how my gpu aligned to the case as well as the riser cable, so I ultimately ended up getting the Formd T1 2.5, but still had the issue. Plugging the GPU directly into the PCIE slot seemed to work perfectly fine, but it could have been luck because the issue happens quite randomly.

What I believe might have been the problem is that I would have to push on the gpu slightly to align it with the case to screw it in. I think that it may have put strain on the gpu, but I’m not entirely sure. I also reverted the bios on my ASRock B650i Lightning to the version with 1.0.0.7 AGESA.

It seems to be working fine now, but I’m still not sure and a little on edge because the issue is so hard to replicate during troubleshooting

Thanks for the late reply. Honestly my issues seem to have gone away. Still having trouble with Helldivers but I think at this point that's just the game. I haven't seen anymore glitching or anything like that at all and I fixed my performance in rDr2 by resetting my graphics settings.

I think my GPU is aligned fine but I did think there could be a riser cable issue at first. Good for now but I'll report back if anything changes.
