AMD R9 380 fan pulsing and running hot!

armyofscrap · Sep 26, 2015

I recently bought a R9 380 4g graphics card for my new build and I've been using it for about a week now and I've noticed when under stress and high heat the fans will pulse from 0% to 100% and back instead of a constant speed, and when they don't do that they are off.
now because of this the max temp is about 205f (96c).
also i have the up to date drivers and have also been using msi after burner.

i would appreciate some opinions!

Do you have a custom fan profile set up in MSI afterburner?

No I don't think so, I haven't changed any of the settings other then temperature readings from C to F

Try setting a custom fan profile and see if that gets your temps under control, if you're not sure look at this pic: http://s1068.photobucket.com/user/loki1944/media/profile_zpszvu8dywt.png.html

basically click on the gear icon in the MSI Afterburner GUI, then, on the window that pops up, click on the Fan tab and make sure "Enable user defined fan control" is checked, then move the gray boxes on the graph to how fast you want the fans to spin at what temperature thresholds.
