Did you have a custom fan profile for the GPU?

When do you recall ~30'C idle?
Have you cleaned the card?

i did not have a custom fan profile and i just use air blower to get the dust out from time to time

And when was the card running ~30'C idle? Was it yesterday, was it 2 years ago?

and if you revert the power plan and image sharpening back to how they were before, what happens?

I tried that and no change

something happened i got my 30 degree back let me tell you how there is a setting logo in Fan Settings in Msi After Burner i clicked on it it called user Define and my Temps went down fast to 30 i kept on for a while and now i closed the user Define and staying 35 degree

So, you had a custom fan profile? That's what "user define" is.
Even if you close it, unless you revert back to default, you're running the new (clearly more aggressive) fan profile.

Glad you got it figured out in the end though.

i never tired custom profile before this is my first time i was just looking and trying things and and now its on default and its giving me solid 42-45 degree in idle

All else being equal, "default" should never give you that level of variance.
Unless your ambient temps have increased >10'C in the last couple of days, in all likelihood, your stock, out of the box temps were not ~30'C the other day.

Either way, sounds like you have an acceptable temperature level now - so that's good.
