Like I said in the title, my 3060 cannot go reach 70°C at all, even when I stress test the card many times without letting it cool down, the temperature just drops the instant it reaches 70. Is it thermal throttling? If it is then isn’t 70°C a bit low for that?

    Short answer: yes its fairly normal to not hit 70° with a good gpu cooler and decent airflow.

    Longer answer: Try running furmark or a similar gpu benchmark that lets you monitor clock frequencies and power draw. That will let you see if you have any kind of actual problem or not. If there are no dramatic reduction in frequency/fps/powerdraw, theres nothing to troubleshoot.
