Hello, i have a Point Of View GTX 960, i'm using it since July, 2015. I always look the temperature while i'm playing, by a month the gpu isn't working well. I use the MSI Afterburner to check the temperature and to set the fan control, the temperature it's going high for nothing. For example, I always played American Truck Simulator, but i can't do it now because the FPS drop and the temperature go to 90°C. If I put the low graphics i can play (the FPS stay in 60 stable and the temperature 51°C), but if I put in ultra or high no, and I always played in Ultra settings. I already change the Thermal Paste and clean all the computer one time per week.

The only game I can play it's League of Legends even if I put in ultra settings the temperature stay in 60°C and i get 60 FPS stable, the other games (GTA 5, CS:GO, RE7, Far Cry Primal) it's horrible the performance. The temperature goes from 60°C to 90°C and back to 70°C in a second, literally.

I'm brazilian, my english isn't very good. Please, someone help me, I already asked in so many brazilian foruns but no one knew answer me, I need your help.

Note1: When I was playing American Truck Simulator yesterday, the monitor come black and appeared "No Signal", 10 seconds later he back and when i looked to the MSI Afterburner, the GPU temperature was in 0°C during this event.
Note2: Sometimes when the computer it's starting, the GPU make some acute noise and the monitor stay with no signal, to solve it I need to turn off the computer and turn on again, up until the GPU stop to make noise and the computer can start normal.

ok your cards fan might be malfunctioning if that's the case you might have to go to a hardware repair shop or if you overclocked your card the card might be under too much strain from the overclock in that case you turn the clock speed down

I'd never overclocked my card, so the problem is in the fan?
