I bought RTX 2070 Super GPU. I placed it into "main" PCI-E slot where previously had GTX 1660 Super. I did that due to cable management and space issues. My idea is that I would be using 2070S for mining meanwhile I would be using 1660S for gaming, movies, browsing etc. and during the night for example I would use both for mining. So I connected my monitors to 1660S and everything works fine.
I have MSI Afterburner opened more now then I used to and I see that 1660S is getting spikes from 300 Core and Memory clock on idle to 1900/7000 while scrolling or even opening folders on desktop. I got curious and pluged my monitors into 2070S. This one on idle is at 1200/7000 on idle, way more then 1660S and when I do all of previous stated actions it doesn't get any spikes.
Are this spikes normal and safe? I am afraid that this could hurt GPU and also curious why such a difference? Could it be because 1660S is inserted into second PCI-E?
