RTX 2070 super idling at 1605MHz

[mathieu20152]

So after a week I build my desktop with a r5 3600 and a msi rtx 2070 super gaming x trio I founded that im idling at 1605MHz.

Does somebody know if thats normal bcs normally im idling at a temp of 30C and now its like 40C.

If you guys have some tips how to bring it down while idling let me know.

So the other photo when i was in discord is from 2 weeks ago and then i had an idle of 300MHz so what could be it?

I could reinstall windows.

Seems about right, I have a 2060 Super and it idles at 1065MHz, 30 or 40C is fine.  Could also be ambient temps, dust etc.  Mine idles around 40 - 45...

 

Don't worry about it.  Idle temps like that will have no effect on the card.  Besides idle temps aren't what one should worry about its load temps that matter.

What display are you using? How many Hz?

@Moonzy I'm running two monitors most of the time, a 60Hz 2560x1440 and a 144Hz 1920x1080, but sometimes I even add my 4K 60Hz TV to the mix to play some controller friendly steam games on.

Hmm... Interesting

I've not tested 1440p yet

In the post I've linked I found out that certain refresh rate causes GPU to not truly be idle

 

It's a minor nuisance but it's still something i want to be solved

Can you open task manager and see if anything in the background is using GPU resources?

Its barley in use only some windows services use 0.5%

If you go to your nvidia control panel, then "Manage 3D settings", and then scroll down to "power management mode" is it set to "prefer maximum performance"? That will make it idle as if it were under load. You can try optimal power or adaptive instead.

It was on adaptive but I reinstalled windows and now my idle is back 29C and 300MHz
