Whenever i leave my pc idling (on the desktop not even moving my mice ) in CAM it says that my GPU load jump to 100% which leads to the card heating than the fans turning on and that just annoys me whenever i am doing something else in my room i always have to listen to the GPU fans at 80-100%.....And its not only because of the noise i think is shortening the lifespan of my gpu that way because its like i am gaming even when i am not

If that doesn't work, do you have another PC that you can try your card in? What @RobCrezz said sounds more like the issue, but if it doesn't solve it, try it in another PC. It could be a damaged thermal sensor, causing the fans to spike to 80-100% at all times or just randomly, this is most likely not the case but it is worth an attempt. Could always RMA it if it carries on and is in warranty.

Best bet is to try the above though.

I dont think that could be the issue because the fans go up because of the gpu load and the fan curve that i set

I did scan my pc with that program and it found 127 malwares and it cleaned them now everything is okey. Thank you :)

127, that's impressive, I guess :lol:

Get them things off of there and you'll be fine, be careful in the future :p

I don't think I've managed to get 1, no doubt 127.

My answer was just a suggestion, in case the malware scan didn't work, but that seemed like the culprit.

Glad it's sorted :)

Torrents are legal in my country so i pirate a lot of stuff and that's where most of them came from i guess

Fair enough, discussing it isn't tolerated on here as it is an American site I believe? So just end it there :lol:

Technically you can bypass it due to them being legal torrents, but yeah.

Glad you got it sorted anyway, just do regular scans and clear anything it finds.
