This gave me a good laugh :P but yeah both CPU and GPU will clock down to lower speeds when idle, to save power. There's no point in running at full speed if there's nothing to do.

also, why overclock a laptop GPU? chances are you are going to overheat it and it will thermal throttle to lower clocks anyway.
