So I have a EVGA GTX 770 SC ACX and so far I've been enjoying the card, but recently I had Precision X open on my second monitor while doing some light web surfing and the GPU clock jumps to 1110 MHZ and the voltage to 1100 constantly, I have also been receiving higher temps in some games then what people have been reporting.(I.E. Simcity 70C, Crysis Warhead 75C, 40C on Idle). The Card is only a couple of days old.

Driver: 320.49

I remember a setting in Precision X "K-something" Thats makes your Graphics card always run at full speed "IDK why people would want that" check if you had it on. its in the voltage settings.

Well there seems to be alot of application that use the power of the GPU anymore and that can cause the problem you are having.

I had the same problem with my SLI GTX 670 setup and found that when I run Universal Media Server the GPU speed ramps up as does the temp. There are also more and more Firefox plugins that are using the GPU. In my case it was because the newer versions of PS3 Media server is using GPU transcoding.

If your GPU goes back down when you close your browser then check out what plugins you have running.

Plugins running: Intel web components updater 3.0.72.0, Acrobat 11, iTunes detector, Java, Nvidia 3D vision and Flash.

I disable the 3D vision plugins and the spikes stopped happening, re-enabled them and the spikes weren't happening. Closed and opened Firefox, GPU spiked. Played a youtube video and flash animation, GPU spiked like crazy
