Driver 23.7.1 issues with RX6700xt with vram

On my Radeon RX 6700xt im finding a new bug that causes vram to be used randomly at idle when ever the radeon driver window is either closed or minimized sometimes when not active, but it causes the vram to be entirely used at idle but once you change to the driver active window then it will drop, but still seems way higher then usual, but at idle the vram will say it is using 12000mb of vram or about 11000 minimum at idle until the driver window is opened, I haven't ran into significant performance issues apart from occasional crashes of other windows, but it started ever since the new driver was installed, but it is using the vram because windows task manager registers it and the gpu warms up due to it because my fans run a lot more often then normal at idle and they rarely turn off when they used to be rarely on because its the Powercolor Red Devil 6700xt which is completely overkill on heatsink and fans so clearly there is an issue with vram on this new driver at least on the 6700xt and others should discuss this issue. Also the VRAM usage increases after things are launched after fresh restart the gpu will typically idle around 3126-8000mb at random usually climbs then drops even with driver window open which is highly unusual for this gpu.
