Hi all! I'm running a GTX 760 graphics card and I have an annoying problem
When not playing any games or really doing anything at all my GPU fan will go from zero to about 3000rpm every 30 or so seconds. I've checked all my computer temperatures, which seem to be in the high 30's to low 40's C without any fluctuations or spikes. I've tried manually setting my own fan speed with MCI afterburner and while it takes longer for it to dip back to zero and then spike to 3000 before settling itself on whatever fan speed I temporarily set it to, it obviously still does not stop it. I've given it a good clean as well.
The annoying thing is that it mostly does it on idle and rarely happens when I'm actually gaming.
I should note that this is not a new graphics card or a new computer and this problem has only started in the last week. I got the computer new about 8 months ago.
If anyone has any ideas I'll try as much as them as I'm comfortable of trying and I would appreciate any assistance given.
