Hey, and welcome to the forums, as for the clock speeds, that's normal, there's some unknown to me "real" max boost clock, and then there's the advertised boost clock. from my experiences with other cards and my GTX 1080 FTW DT, it seems that it'll slowly scale back over time from the max boost clock, down as far as the advertised boost clock, even without "real" throttling. if real throttling kicks in it'll drop lower ( IE gets too hot, or draws to much power, or simply doesn't need to run at a high speed)
As for the LEDs, I don't think the 16 points above the power connectors are LED, but soldering points for part of the power connectors on the card, if you're referring to what I think you are.
