Evening Reddit,
system is 10850k with 64gb corsair 3600mhz ram, gigabyte z490 aorus elite ac motherboard
card was delivered to me a week ago, have just tried to overclock it,
only reason i have done so was because playing cod zombies max details and medium ray tracing gives 55fps, and with no raytracing is 130 fps, whilst looking at wattman, i noticed it would only use 150w of power consumption, regardless of clock settings, i have failed to get it to reach its total wattage, this is the same for borderlands 3, it uses only 220w, just seems its not performing correctly.
the stock clocks would never go above 2200mhz, despite being an after market card,
when i chose manual tuning settings and the checked gpu tuning, i saw that the voltage slider was already maxed out and appears the power limit slider makes no difference,
i also dont know if its worth mentioning, a game called "the medium" would always crash, and the driver would crash aswell, it happened a couple times in borderlands,
its a shame because i read the review of this card and it can achieve 2600mhz+, mine fails to go above 2500mhz, if i adjust the max frequency slider any higher than 2550mhz, it will straight away crash, does it have something to do with the voltage ?
i only posted because the card appears to be unstable even at standard clocks with a clean install of the driver. i have attatched a picture of my settings on wattman, if im not wrong, there is no other program that can control the gpu overclock?

any one have any advice what im doing wrong or any suggestions ? cheers for the help 
ps, can some one tell me how to upload an image to this post? i have posted a link to my wattman
