What the statistics server said about that THRM?

BTW, I'd crank up the fan manually at 100%, and then repeat the tests: if it throttled again, personally I'd RMA the GPU.

Perfcap is a GPUZ feature and it is probably early days for the newer cards such as the GTX 1080. So it may be that GPUZ is picking up some sort of transient inconsistency but the Perfcap reasons being displayed may have little or no relation to what it actually is. Updating to the latest 1.10 version of GPUZ and/or latest Geforce driver might help.

I try on GPUZ 1.10 and the same. Restart pc fixing this.

So rma my card because sometimes i get THRM perfcap reason for couple of seconds, after starting games? Clocks are the same with or without THRM, its not performance affected.

Are you serious with this RMA?
