Weird spikes on memory clock and core clock (GTX 1080)

Hi there guys.

 

I think i am having some issues with my gtx 1080 that i bought a couple of weeks a go.

 

I have been noticing that it does not perform like expected and in all games i have random framedrops. So i checked out the info in MSI afterburner and i noticed some weird drops in core clock and memory clock and at the same time with some voltage limit drops.

 

And when in idle the core clock and memory clock spikes.

 

Can someone explain what is going on? Printscreen in files attached.

Nothing is overclocked.

 

System:

ryzen 5 1600

16gb ddr4 3200mhz

asus gtx 1080 strix

asus x370 prime pro

Those drops happened while gaming. I was playing The witcher 2: Enhanced Edtition and noticed a huge FPS drop. Then i exited the same through the proper means, not alt+tab or ctrl+tab.

I know it's been a while, but did you find a fix to this issue? I'm seeing the same thing

Bumping to see if the OP found a solution. 

Well the problem stopped by itself, i guess. Or when nvidia released new drivers. I haven´t had that problem again.

 

Also i don´t have that 1080 anymore. I endend up selling it a few months later and got a GTX 1080Ti.

 

So, no specific solution for the problem.
