Hi,
This hasn't bothered me too much in the beginning, but after several months it has become rather annoying. For some reason my GPU is spinning uncontrollably fast at startup and 1-2 minutes after startup. Not only is the spinning itself very loud, the rest of my PC seems to resonate with the sound too. The resulting noise is close to unbearable.
I'm wondering what could cause this. It seems like it takes a while before the driver gets a hold of the card. Anyway, here's what I'm using:
XFX HD Radeon 5770
Dell XPS 410/Dimension 9200 (all stock components except for extra SSD and GPU of course)
Windows 7 x64
Catalyst 11.7 (latest)
Hoping for some suggestions! Thanks!
