I recently cleaned my computer of all its dust as my GPU fans werent spinning which was causing my computer to shut down. once i had fixed that however, my GPU fans now run incredibly loud and fast. Does anyone know of any solution because this is quite annoying.

what brand gpu nvidia or amd? If nvidia download either evga precision X or MSI afterburner and create a custom fan profile to slow the fans down until they reach a higher temp then have them speed up. Msi afterburner works on both amd and nvidia cards so you may just want to download and use that. Also if your gpu was getting hot and the fans were not spinning at all due to dust that must have been ALOT of dust and it very well could have cooked the thermal paste to the point of ruining it so the gpu may be trying to spin the fans as fast as it can to keep itself cool. Just download msi afterburner and report to us what the temps are that its showing as well as create a custom fan profile.
