I didn't know Nvidia cards downclocked? Mine doesn't.
GPU running 3d clocks @idle

They do now. When you are on desktop they downclock to save power when in game they go back to normal clocks. Mine does it

Have you tried the latest drivers? Like I said, I've NEVER seen Nvidia cards do this anyway. But I've also been out of the loop for a while.

I don't use either of those programs.

Just a side note: I've been on the 191.07's for a while now and the clocks have NEVER been at 3d @idle. Today is the first time this has happened to me.

well seing as you have an EVGA card, I'd say get evga precision and check your clocks in there to make sure, but maybe some random applications make them run 3D clocks simply restart you pc to get rid of random applications in the equation, happened to me before

, well no harm in trying right

I agree, restarting might fix the problem. I want a long term solution though. Something is causing it to force 3d clocks @idle, and I want to know what that is.

I'm 100% sure the GPU is @3d clocks because I can tell by the temp. My normal idle temp is 33-35c, and it's currently at 43c.

So it in fact might be at the 2d clocks, but they still show 3d performance clocks. Use some sort of hardware monitoring that is included with rivatuner or precision to see your actual clocks. |

, well goodluck finding the problem !
