Hi guys, I bought my GTX 970 to replace R9 280X. Today I put it in and tried a few games. Everything went fine until I quit the game. One fan is stuck at I would say 100% according to the noise level and the other one is not doing anything. I know there is the independent automatic fan control thing but this remains the same even after one hour when the temperature is back to 29 degrees. One of them keeps going. MSI Afterburner is set to automatic fan control and is showing 0-1% fan speed. When I put there manual nothing happens. When I change from gaming mode to silent mode or OC mode in MSI Gaming app nothing happens.

I have the latest drivers 344.16 :(  Do you have any ideas? I have already contacted MSI support and waiting for their answer.

Thanks in advance...

Update: It seems to be good now. When I had a look yesterday the one fan was kind of plucking back and forward like just about to move but it couldn't and so therefore the second one was playing up and trying to cool it on its own. I moved the one not moving fan by finger and now it's good and it doesn't pluck anymore.

A wire or cable must have been obsructing it. Be careful when you close up the case.......happened once to me before and it nearly fried my CPU.

that would be quite obvious mate ;)  It's not a cable or anything like that.

Is it completely fine now or do you have to start the fan manually every time?

That's good! If it happens more you might need a replacement, but glad you're enjoying it! I'm so keen to test out DSR :D  hurry up monday! I got the same card btw.
