Hm, I haven't read about that option in Inspector. From what I read, the dual monitor power save option still allow the card to clock up when it needs to, but fixes the issue of not downclocking while idle. I tried a game and the card does seem to start clocking up as normal when it's put to...

So basically all day it was fine. I just accidentally closed GPU-Z (hate how if you minimize it doesn't just drop to the task bar) and when I pulled it back up everything jumped to 23% usage and now it's hanging there again. I ran Nvidia Inspector again and that dropped everything back down. I...

Just ran through the steps you outlined, using DDU and installing the new drivers. Should I also switch to adaptive rather than optimal in the Nvidia control panel? Too soon to tell if that did the trick though. Like I said, this issue usually pops up after idling for a while. Strangely enough...

Blew out dust yesterday. Not sure how to change thermal paste on the GPU, or thermal pads, though. Would that cause it to begin drawing more power, even though the fans aren't really running? Main thing is it seems like it's in use. Memory goes up, draws more power, then the card heats. Should...

Trying simple color doesn't seem to make a difference. honestly I can't think of much I have changed. I got a Huion drawing tablet, so that acts as a second monitor at times, but don't always leave it plugged in. I had updated to new drivers about a week before that, so I had the latest Nvidia...
