Hmm, that might explain the odd noise i hear from my 1070 at random times. Its kinda like a rattle or faint clicking sound, I suppose that may be the fan blades.
The sound doesn't last longer than a couple seconds, and doesn't happen very often. I'll find out while I'm giving it an inspection and thermal make-over soon.

(nothing against you NucleusX, just a funny thing) I knew the moment I mentioned the rattle, someone with a 10 series would start looking for their card to do exactly that.

The rattle was far from quiet. Just look up YouTube videos and you will see how bad it was. The 700 and 900 series cards each had a few that did it.

lol, nah this isn't all that bad. I'm quite happy to live with it if i have to as long as the sound is just related to the cooler, and nothing more sinister.

After reading this^ I'm glad I stuck to reference design 1080 GTX. I've always disliked the ACX cooling designs, they've either always had coil whine down the road, or fans made more noise than radial cooled designs(770 SC ACX SLI which I absolutely hated!).
