    GTX 780 fan problem

    I recently purchased a new GTX 780 graphics card. After installing it in my system when I started the computer then I head some noises from the fan os this card. I ignored it but after playing and exiting a game I noticed very high fan noises. This is a new card and I dont think that it should give any kind of nuisance. I know that the fan makes noise but only after using the card for years or so. Should I return the card, what do you suggest? Thanks

    You can try to download EVGA Precision X 4.2.1 to increase or decrease the fan speed. When I normally use this software to increase the fan speed to 45% then the noise drops below. I am using another card and I am looking to the fan speed update which will letme to go to 35%. If this is not going to be fixed or the still the noise problem will be there then I will also return my graphics card.

    Have you tried to remove the plastic firm from the graphics card that might be around the fans, that might be making the fan noisy a bit. There are many people who are having the same problem with this card and there's no doubt that it is very irritating. At idle the fan will make noise but when it is set to 45% then the noise disappears.

    Even I was having the same problem with my Geforce Gtx 780 video card and after raising the fan speed the issue got solved for me. You can obviously try to RMA it, meaning replace your video card, and get a new one, but if the stock of this card is over then you will have to wait for sometime for the next stocks to arrive.
