GPU Clock & Voltage within precision should read 324MHz & 987Mv if the card is truly in it's idle state. If you see anything other than 324MHz for the GPU Clock & 987Mv for the voltage then the card is not in it's true idle state.
Well, mine is definitely not in idle....
I kid you not, it has being Stock at the same Temperature and Clock/Voltage for the past 30 minutes. I don't understand, all I'm doing is browsing the web. Driver 310.70
Dang thing hasn't moved more than 1c in the past 30 minutes. Only thing I've changed on the Global Panel is that I have Power Management Set to "Prefer Maximum Performance" but this is normal.
I have nothing running on the background, not even Steam app.
UPDATE: (If anyone still reads this thread lol)
I set Power Management in the Global Nvidia Panel back to "Adaptive" and 5 minutes later my Idle temperatures went back to normal, which is 27c-28c with fan at 36%
Why would Power Management Mode set to "Prefer Maximum Performance" do this, I don't know, but perhaps is a glitch, because I don't think this is normal for it to do this when the PC is only idle.
I guess I'll just set it to Maximum Performance manually depending on what I'll be doing.
