If anyone can help me with this its frustrating i have this issue for months and caused me to reset my laptop over 3 times in the last couple months.

 the issue is when my gpu isn't active . the core clock jumps from 300mhz to 645mhz every second causing my gpu temps to go high up to 60C and my system power usage to very high. when i boot up its around 35C. and keeps my fans running even if i am not using a single program.  i read that this issue because windows keep waking up the gpu but i didn't find any solution.  i went thought every driver on NVidia website still nothing works

My specs : Dell g3 3500 I5-10300H/GTX 1650 ti

This is 100% normal operation for most GPUs made today,.. and some apps will always trip it to above 300Mhz,...

Aka this isn't an "issue with clocks" this is a laptop cooling issue to me... those clock rises are expected.

 

I doubt your ever going to keep it locked to 300Mhz on idle as idle isn't really idle,.. things are always on a timer/scheduler for updates and online connectivity checks/loads as part of how Windows operates.

 

Again, I don't think you can lock it down to 300Mhz always until needed,..using drivers or any driver features.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

i did keep locked for over a week but windows update messed it up. basically i would have a wallpaper app running on the background using Intel hd gpu and it keeps the nvidia gpu inactive and at 300mhz. i tried to replicate this but didn't work

Oh, I figured you were NV only, my apologies.
