High vram clock in idle a750

In idle my arc a750 vram clock stays at 2000mhz. I have reinstalled the latest drivers an rebooted countless times but the issue persists. I am adding a gpuz screen. Is there any solution? Have done a bug report with intel support. So hoping new driver might fix it?

Quick update, driver 3959 doesn't fix the issue. Vram clock stays at max speed even in idle resulting in higher power consumption.

Hello,

 

Was there any solution to this case since I have the same issue with brand new Sparkle A750 Orc OC? Oddly the Vram is stuck at 2000Mhz, although it should boost to 2200Mhz and does neither go down or up. It's just stuck. 
I've tried both the latest GPU driver - 31.0.101.5522 WHQL and also downloaded two versions older - 31.0.101.5448. 
I've made clean install when downgrading.

The GPU is brand new, literally unboxed today and I am trying to figure it out.

Hi vyrgozunqk

 

To be Clear on intel arc Gpu Memory Clock / Vram ,

it will allways Stay @ its Designed max Clock. 

-  for intel arc

A750 = 2000Mhz @ Idle and load

A770 8GB = 2000Mhz @ Idle and load

A770 16GB = 2187Mhz @ Idle and load

 

That is an normal behavior by design, First gen ARC has no Memory Clockstates or Memory OC capability.

The Boost Clock you mention is you GPU Clock not your Memory/Vram Clock.

 

There is actually no info Known that this will change in future Drivers or Firmware updates.

As i Know Intel Mentioned that Arc won`t have that Feature.

 

Maybe they change that ... who knows.
