Hey,

i've just noticed my FTW going hot in idle and the voltage is 1043.. When i use the default button it goes back to 800 something but goes again very high.. Any ideas? oO
 
Is it because i ran it full power in management settings in nvidia?
 
thanks

Here are the top causes of why a GPU would run at full clocks at idle...
 
#1 You're running multiple monitors. Fix: Enable mutil display power saver using nvidia inspector.
#2 Your machine has a virus. Fix: Scan computer using malwarebytes.
#3 One or more programs running in the background are using your GPU. Fix: Perform a clean boot of windows.
#4 Power management mode inside the nvidia control panel is set to prefer maximum performance. Fix: Set power management mode to adaptive then reboot your computer.
#5 Running a resolution of 2560x1440 @ 144Hz. Fix: Change refresh rate to 120Hz.
#6 K-Boost is enabled inside Precision X. Fix: Disable K-Boost.
#7 Shadowplay is enabled inside geforce experience. Fix: Disable shadowplay inside geforce experience OR completely uninstall geforce experience from your machine (highly recommended)

I guess it was the power management.

Why uninstalling Geforce experience is recommanded?
