Hey, guys! So I have been having this off-and-on problem with noise in my ASUS strix 980ti. But now it's happening every single time I turn my computer on and honestly not only is it extremely loud and annoying but I'm worried some damage is being done, if not a possibility of overheating.
To put it simply, the middle fan seems to be off balance or possibly have a bad bearing in it because it will begin to spool up with the rest of the fans and then shortly it makes a high pitched noise and then a low growl and stops spinning for a second. Almost looks to be spinning off-axis ever so slightly.
So like I said this is really loud during use and drives me crazy, as well as the fact that I think my GPU is getting hotter than normal and it is beginning to throttle as a result. I don't want to do any damage but it is worrying.
Any possible ideas on a fix from home or am I going to have to RMA this card? I really can't go without a card too long is my only issue as I have work that is needing to be done using this card. (not cryptos, don't worry lol). Thanks for any and all advice.
Here's a YouTube link to the sound and look of the fan while it is doing this weird stuff.
