    Try a Clean install of Windows 10 or use DDU after OS upgrade and install new nvidia driver.

    Also check your vbios, I've had this before with some modified vbioses with newer drivers. Its something to do with Nvidia implementing / changing some of the power saving profiles and when a vbios has had the voltage tables modified.
