GTX 960 PerfCap Reason = Vrel

[BLoCKANDLOADED ⭕⃤]

How to Fix this PerfCap Reason = Vrel? my power consumption %. doesnt exceed at 80% it only gets to 45% to 75%? thats why i got the feeling thats why i get FPS DROP.

And I have the feeling it's not related to power limit. Post your full PC specs, the game you're having problems with and the resolution/settings in that particular game.

It's hard to tell without having some exact game running some exact settings, but judging by the specs alone you're very likely to get CPU bottlenecked in most games unless you run ultra settings. See, GPU doesn't create frames in games on its own, it requires some basic data from CPU first, like where the objects are, what they are like etc. If you CPU can't deliver enough data for GPU - then GPU will just chill. I recommend checking CPU and GPU usage in the games you're having problems with, you're very likely to see 100% CPU usage there, and that's where your FPS drops come from.
What comes to power consumption - there's barely any reason to worry about it. VREL usually means GPUs self-boosting is at its maximum. Checking GPU temps under heavy load might also help a bit, as graphics cards are able to limit the power consumption to keep it within the range of safe temperatures. Tho I expect this to be an unlikely scenario with your CPU, unless you crank up the settings too high.

Thanks for the awesome Reply!. yep i get 100% Usage on CPU when i play PUBG ( All Very Low )

Having used an A10-7860K, I strongly agree. In most games, A10 APUs are a bottleneck to modern GPUs and are best for low-end gaming if you can get them for stupidly cheap. They're best paired with nothing more than an R9 200 series GPUs, at least with the lower end models. NVIDIA's equivalent to that would be around GTX 950.

I Get around 35-85 FPS (65 FPS average) on PUBG with my specs.

Your FPS would be much better if you had an FX chip and not an A10, because A10s are much weaker and will bottleneck in pretty much every modern title, because I had the same problem with an A10 before with an R9 270X and RX 580.

i will be getting a new RIG soon. now im clarified that theres nothing wrong about my GPU.. i guess my GPU can be a good temporary gpu on my new rig while im earning money for a better graphics card.

Yeah, it'll work fine until you can replace it.
What's your budget looking like, though?

Then I recommend getting either a Ryzen 3 2200G, Ryzen 5 2400G, or Ryzen 5 2600 CPU, paired with 16GB of Corsair Vengeance LPX CL15 DDR4-3000 RAM on a Gigabyte B450M DS3H motherboard. OS storage on an ADATA SU800 256GB SSD, and you can keep your current HDD. You can also keep your current PSU as well if you don't want to buy a new one as it should be okay, as should be your case.
That should be around 400 USD, so you have a bit of room to save up for an RX 580 or better.

Thanks for the advise.. im planning with same CPU a Ryzen 5 2400G or 2600. but im planning to get with a GTX 1660 :)
