Intermitent, Graphic card is slowing down

Thanks again James for your generous help.

Is there anything to do to allocate more resources to Windows and or graphic card?

How can I test the resource level?

Question: What if my PSU is not driving enough current for the video card.

Will the symptom apparent to that or the card will not function at all?

If you get a drop in voltage to the GPU you should actually crash. This sounds more like a resource issue.

EDIT:And your PSU should be providing more than enough power for your system.

Download GPU-z and check the usage level while this is occurring.

Hello

GPU-Z is running. What should I look for?

Martin :)

Hello Martin, sorry I haven't gotten back until now..

Hello James

No problem at all, your generous help is truly welcome

Here is a screen capture of two period
1- Graphic was OK
2: Graphic is choppy

GPU-Z is showing actual data, not the max and min

Hello Martin, sorry I haven't gotten back until now.
Were you able to figure out how to use it? The second tab, Sensors, should show you what you what you are looking for. Take snips of the different tabs under different scenarios. 1 for stable usage and 1 while the display gets choppy.

Hmm, by the graph it looks like that are some spikes on the core clock and the voltage. I would be interested in seeing the minimum, while the choppiness is not occurring and the maximum while the choppiness is observed. If you click on the labels, there are options to show minimum, maximum, current, and average. Please try and capture the minimums and maximums.

OK
Since it is choppy now, I will capture the value. When stable, I will capture again

Here is the data for the Win & Max while the screen is choppy
