I recently got the GTX 970 from Gigabyte and decided to try to OC it a little because i've seen alot of good overclocks on them. Upon doing so however i noticed i was barely able to add 50 offset to my core clock before my driver restarts and now my card idles on desktop at 1177 MHZ which i don't think it should be sitting that high at idle. if i re install the drivers it fixes this, although if i try to overclock again the same thing happens. Any help as to what im doing wrong would be greatly appreciated. I should also note that the same thing is happening with the memory clock which is now idling at 3506 MHZ

What are you using to overclock with, what software?
Most of them have a setting in there to remove idle clocks and to always stay at an overclocked state.

I had this High Idle Temp issue since 4 to 5 months. I search over internet everywhere cant found the solution. but then finally i bought gta 5 i love that game so much watching youtube videos of gta 5 ultra settings graphics looks so awesome. but when i do my gta5 graphics on ultra results loss of fps and shuttering occured. but then finally i rid this issue by my self and now i can play on ultra with full 60fps no shutterng fucking hell smooth you hav to do 2 things as mention below.
1. Open a command prompt. (Run a command prompt as Administrator in Windows vista/7/8)
Copy command line and Paste sc stop NvStreamSvc hit enter then copy paste 2nd line on 2nd task sc config NvStreamSvc start= disabled then hit enter close cmd
2. Go to task manager and stop this process. (Services and Controllerapp.exe32*)
close task manager. Now see your temp it will decrease and gpu utilization will be reduce from 97% to Early 1% to 15%
Suggestion: Keep ur Room Cool Always.
Hope it works for u all.

This does not have anything to do with OP.
Also we WANT over 90% utilization on the GPU when gaming so that we can get as much fps as possible from our hardware, under 90% means you have a system bottleneck (most likely CPU) or the game is not written well for your hardware/drivers.
