Gpu fan stuck at 100%? 4870x2

[jonnyrb]

Hello,

You can distinctly tell the % the gpu fan is at for any 4870x2 user, My GPU is running very cool for a 4870x2 (58celcius) and the fan is BLARING loud stuck at 100%

However, I when I lower my fan speed in CCC or afterburner it shows that it's going lower, however the fan speed is not actually changing. I have both tried setting a profile and disabling fan control... nothing is working... any assistance would be appreciated


I'll check back in the morning

Thanks for any advice

p.s. yes it's the fan, yes it's at 100%, yes I hit apply, no I don't hear voices

edit: this occurred around the time I took the 80gig sATA out of my broken ps3 and put it in my PC, and started playing ffx on a ps2 emulator. I don't recall the exact time, as I didn't really mind while I was playing the game but I cannot sleep with this ruckus

Agree, re-install the driver, use driver sweeper or update it with the latest driver from AMD site...

I hate that I put the "I'm not a retard so don't give me trivial answers" pretty strong. BUT it turns out the fan connector was loose or something to that matter, and was going at 100% no matter what, eventually (2-3 hours later) vibrated looser? and turned the fan off completely

SO, what happened to your card now?

 

[jonnyrb]

I plugged the fan back in, and it's perfectly fine...
