Here is my card: CLICK ME 
Here are some of my other components:
OS: Win10 Pro 64
CPU: Intel i7 3770K @ 4.2
Cooler: Corsiar H100i v2
MB: ASUS P8Z77-V Deluxe
RAM: 32GB Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz
PSU: Rosewill Lightening series 800W
Sound Card: ASUS STX Essence II
SSD: Intel 250GB for OS
HDDs: 1: 3TB WD 7200rpm for games 2: 1TB WD 7200rpm for media and backups.
I'm not sure what's going on. No matter what fan controlling software I use, when my temps get around 60C-65C, my fans go HAM. Like, 4300rpm loud af level. I've used both EVGA Precision OCX and MSI Afterburner, both have the same issue. The only semi-success I had was using Precision OSX as it would at least keep the fan constant where I wanted, but again once it reaches 60C -65C it goes 100% on fans.
When it does decide to ignore the controls set in place it can take about a minute for it to go back to my settings, if it does at all. Most times it'll just flucuate between 10% or 100% and never reach equilibrium.
I thought maybe it was just getting a heavy load since I am using an older processor, an Intel i7 3770k. So I OCed it from 3.5 to 4.2 successfully and stress tested. Everything runs perfect. Load up a game and the same crap happens again.
Mafia III won't make it go AS crazy, but all bets are off when it comes to Dirt Rally. When I boot Dirt I might as well be in the car itself because that's how loud this card gets.
This made me certain it's either the card or some bogus software I don't know about overriding what I'm trying to tell the card.
The only success I've had to make sure it doesn't go into maximum overdrive is if I make sure it never reaches 60C to begin with, which is hard with some games.
What do you guys think?
