That's a laptop right?

My guess is it is power saving, and switching between the dedicated GPU and the iGPU in order to best save power. It's probably changing states depending on what you're doing. It's some odd software that you get with intel/Nvidia laptops, I don't recall the name. I warrant that is perfectly normal behaviour.

EDIT: NVidia Optimus! That's the badger.
