I viewed some forums about the same problem that I am having... my idle clocks are very low.
300 mhz on core clock.
150 mhz on memory clock.
Tried the profile trick of CCC and tried the msi afterburner 2d profiling thingy.
The clocks don't change.None of these seem to work. Help required fast. Thanks

Edit: The screen flickers due to this problem... Very heavy flickering.

Okay then...
How do I fix this problem now? screen flickers like crazy. Currently downloading new drivers.
I didn't have this problem a few months back... Then suddenly one day my pc crashes while I was playing and then the screen flicker started from then on.

Those clocks sound correct for the idle speeds on that card. Not sure what you're referring to as a profile trick. There really isn't any trickery involved. If you don't like the stock clocks, you can simply create a different profile for your card, and edit that profile to include different clock rates.

The profiles are stored in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\ATI\ACE\Profiles in XML format, but it's pretty easy to open the file and modify the pertinent information.

Are you running your screen an a resolution or refresh rate that is not native to it? Is your signal cable running past something that could be imposing interference on it? Are either ends of the cable loose or damaged?

Sometimes digital screens will blank out when the signal loss is more than what they are willing to tolerate. Generally, if you have bad degradation over a digital connection, you'll see what appears to be snow-like static, which are actually missing pixels.

Resolution and refresh rate is set to native. Cable is not running past something that could be imposing interference on it. No damage or loose connectivity.

It seems that I am not having snow like static but my flickering is almost as similar to what this guy is experiencing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68dtHf3Glsk

Pretty sure that it ain't the problem with the psu since...
I didn't have this problem a few months back.

The video does make it appear as though the GPU is failing. You can look into an RMA for the card, if it's within the warranty period, replace it, or try home-brew methods such as baking it as a sort of last-resort to try and save it.

I would swap a known good card into the system first, just to be certain. Or conversely, you can swap your card that is suspected to be failing into another system and see if the symptoms transfer with the card.

This card is like brand new... i mean its almost 6 months... but i barely used it for a month.

I just checked out gpu-z and this is what i get
gpu core clock - 300 mhz
gpu memory clock- 150 mhz
gpu temperature - 37 C
fan speed - 30%
gpu load - 0%
memory usage (dedicated) - 3mb
memory usage (dynamic) - 4mb
VDDC - 0.825V
