4070 TI SUPER Power usage (watts) drops then utilization / FPS

[arkyblarky1]

My gpu power usage (watts) starts to drop then my gpu utilization ruining my fps in games i should easily be able to run. I have a pretty brand new high end pc.. my specs are 

specs ; 4070 TI SUPER , AMD RYZEN 9 7950X3D , ASUS TUF GAMING B650-PLUS WIFI with 32 gb of DDR5 6000mhz and a CORSAIR RM1000x  Modular ATX Power Supply - 80 PLUS everything isnt even a year old yet

All of my drivers are up to date like : GPU , CPU CHIPSETS , MOBO BIOS / CHIPSETS.. only thing i could thing after weeks of trying is my 16 pin pcie to my gpu is messed up as it does look off in a post where the protective cover isnt fully secure and i can see its wires.. came like that with the gpu..

one thing to note that i found out.. i used the pcie pigtail so one pcie to power my gpu.. i just recently used 2 diffrent pcies in the 12VHPWR.. its been running for a long time on one pcie could this have caused damage..?
