Only getting half performance from Fury X

All of a sudden I seem to be only getting about 55% performance from my Fury X card. I noticed when benchmarking Deus Ex Mankind that I was only getting 31FPS on the LOWEST settings!

I then tried the benchmark on ROTR where I normally get around 50 FPS - this time only 27FPS.

I then tried the Firestrike benchmark which previously gave me a score of over 13000 which was better than over 90% of results. Now I'm only getting a score of 8125 and better than 53% of results.

I haven't been changing any components. The card has not been overclocked and I haven't made any tweaks to the settings in Reddit. I'm assuming there is a fault with the card and intend to talk to OCUK tech guys but can anyone think of any other reason why I would suddenly start to lose this kind of performance aside from a fault with the card. Is there anything else I can try?

do you have msi afterburner?

check your gpu/cpu useage and gpu clock speeds while running a benchmark see if anything is amiss.

do you run win 10?..i hear the anniversary update has messed up some fps.

Thanks again for the suggestions guys. When I went into the driver settings the GPU clock was set at -47%. I reset the settings and rebooted, ran the ROTR benchmark again - same 27FPS. Went back into the driver settings and the GPU clock was set at -47% again so resetting to that every time the system started up. So then checked MSI Afterburner and I somehow saved a profile with the GPU clock set to minimum and set to be applied on start up! I must have thought I was putting it back to normal when I was messing around with overclocking a while back.

Problem now solved, back to 50FPS on ROTR and getting 45 FPS on High setting plus a few extras on Mankind Divided. Happy and relieved. :)
