Usually the card underclocks itself when just doing windows stuff. But when you open 3d applications, like games, or renderstuff, it runs at it's normal (high) clock speed. This is called throttling and is very normal for most gpu's.
However, it shouldn't be that erratic.
What were you doing at the exact moment? Do you remember?
