When I play games, this doesn't always happen, but I hear my reference GTX 970 making a grind type noise.

Is this ok? Haha...
I've uploaded the video to VidMe because it doesn't require an account.

You hear it about half way through the video...

When there is 3 seconds left of the video you hear it... it most likely is the fan but it sounds like it's almost suffering....

Does it still happen if you set the fan to a lower speed?

I haven't tried, what program changes the GPUs fan speed?
