I have an RTX 3060 OC Eagle Edition By Gigabyte i bought 3 weeks ago
Whenever the fans start spinning, there's a rattling sound for a second then it goes away
Should I RMA?

#

Since i am unable to catch the sound in my microphone due to noisy environment, i found video of another GPU with exactly the same issue

vale spindle
#

Can someone help

hoary quarry
#

Sometimes with my laptop cooler

#

RMA it I think

#

It's not audible in store

#

Only when AC and Fans are off

hoary quarry
#

Is it performing fine

vale spindle
#

Yes. I just bought it. I'm just scared that it's Bearing issue and fan will fail after a few week s

#

replace the fan or deal with it

#

nothing you can really do

#

That's why I'm frantically trying to find out if it's normal

hoary quarry
#

Okay imo

#

Run a thing on it 24 hours intensive idk benchmark or somt

#

Fan will spin to its max

#

Leave it like that and see what happens

If anything happens RMA it if nothing happens then its probably just you freaking out

#

below or above that its gone

vale spindle
#

Now i KNOW it's normal instead of some Weird thing happening to me alone

glossy island
#

hoary quarry
#

Its not normal lol

vale spindle

But do what I said

#

vale spindle

#

See what happens to fans and stuff

#

Uhh look online

vale spindle
#

I bought it with my first ever salary (entirety of it)

vale spindle
glossy island
#

its not normal

vale spindle
glossy island
#

yea what do you think is supposed to happen?

vale spindle
#

Fan stopping working?

glossy island
#

my GPU has 3 fans and a 2.5 slot heatsink

#

i can run it with 2 fans if one fails no problem

glossy island

#

why would it affect the other fans?

vale spindle
#

If it's just one of your fans , but still all 3 are working

#

Then it's probably just design flaw (I'm hoping)

#

What GPU do you have (as in MSI or Asus)

glossy island
#

?

#

asus ROG strix

vale spindle
#

It still makes the sounds and still all fans are working?

glossy island
#

no in the last 30 sec all 3 exploded

vale spindle
#

Man why y'all so mean in this server

glossy island
#

because i already answered it 3 times

#
  1. not a design flaw
  2. stop paniking its just a fucking fan and if the fan actually fails just RMA it since you got like a 3 year warranty on most GPUS

#

Imagine you get your first ever job, get first ever salary, and for past 15 years it was your dream to get a PC, and it starts making noise

#

You're telling me u won't panic?

#

PS: Yes I'm panicking

vale spindle

#

But the noise is barely audible in store so i couldn't prove otherwise

#

It's only audible with Fan and AC turned off

glossy island
#

so why even bother

vale spindle
#

You're right

#

I'm just new so i don't know WHEN something IS a big deal and WHEN it isn't

#

I want to give it my best

hoary quarry
#

Updates?

vale spindle
#

AS Well As the damn Gigabyte Service Centre

#

"The issue you're describing is not an issue at all, hence we can not help you"

#

Also the noise now happens even while the fan is running

#

I'm never getting ShitABYTE again

It could be a cable that gets caught every so often
