I've been facing this annoying issue with my Legion 5 where the RTX 2060 is stuck at 300Mhz core clock even when running it at full load
When I run furMark with power connected it gives 10-15fps with gpu utilisation being 100% but core clock being stuck at 300Mhz. I'm getting abysmal performance when running games too. I don't think it's a temp issue as my GPU temp is around 50deg and hotspot being 65deg even on load which is weird.
Things I've tried:
- Re installing Nvidia drivers after removing it using DDU.
- Lenovo BIOS setting to Disable built-in battery when laptop is unplugged, then plug in battery to ensure proper power is delivered to the gpu. HWInfo shows that the gpu is using 280W of power.
- I've done a clean re install of windows.
I have no idea how to proceed because lenovo service is telling me that they cant service and can only replace the motherboard which is almost the same as buying a new laptop.
