this 1080 strix i have makes this weird clicking noise on the left most fan. I made sure the cable underneath it isn’t hitting it so i assume the bearing is at fault? Just want to confirm my suspicions to see what i should do to fix it, it’s more prominent at high rpm’s. sometimes not happening at all on lower rpm’s.

it just sounds like a old card doing old card things, and yes most gpues even modern ones can make this noise out of the box if you set the RPM to MAX

the bearing in the middle when putting my finger on it is super hot 💀 but if
ig
i might just disable the fan all together
if i can figure out how to do that without changing the others

if your running the fan at 100% and your slowing it down it will get hot
icy pumice
i mean in
yeah u right
would you know how to set it to 0RPM all the time or do i need to cut its power

as long as afterburners fan profile is not running it should just stop
but if it is NEEDED then i have had to swap a fan on a 1080 strix card and its not too hard
icy pumice
see that’s the thing
i already did a fan swap for this thing 😭
and i just got this back from my cousin and noticed it was doing it
ig he never noticed it

maybe because you were not running it at 100%

the ones i buy from ebay are always crap

it happens at any rpm just not as dramatically
i notice the fan wobbles a lot

get a case and it should be fine

ye that might just be cheap fan stuff but ofc if its on 100% its normal
icy pumice
nah this was happening in the case that’s why i’m running it on my crude test bench rn
but idk i’ll see
jagged folio
tbh due to its age it might just be better to say sell it as a gpu with issues then buy a new one but if its not needed too some gpues you can remove a and it will still work
icy pumice
yeah that’s what i plan on doing, but i think i can set it to 0 and have the other fans work fine on normal curve
jagged folio
you can also do the normal 120mm zip tie fix
icy pumice
or that lol

fan control III i think might be able to do that
