Hello everyone! So for some reason I have issues controlling the fans on this thing. I can set the custom curve to whatever I want, but no matter what I do the "G" fan will never stop spinning and when under load one of the fans, most likely the same one will go to 4500rpm and I can't do anything about it. The rest two fans are working properly. Any ideas ? I'm really confused. Thanks ^^

The BIOS switch may be in the Secondary/Slave BIOS position..If it is, flip it to the Primary/Master position and restart your PC and see if it matters..The switch is located near the 8-pin PCIe Supplemental Power Connectors. The fan/s ramping up to maximum for no apparent reason or becoming uncontrollable with EVGA Precision indicates a problem with the fan controller and an RMA would be in order..You can Contact EVGA about it. The horizontal yellow dotted lines in the Precision Fan Curve Editor indicates the minimum/maximum allowable fanspeeds.

With normal bios when under load the fans ramp up to 4500rpm and the speeds fluctuate a lot again.

Well I already email Evga EU about it, I just hope that it's not a problem that I got the card used couple of months ago. I still have the original packaging and all that.

Here is a video I did to show you the issue after I did all this 7 steps: Step 1: Uninstall PXOC 16, then delete folder in C/: Drive Step 2: Used DDU in safe mode and uninstalled the drivers, then shut down Step 3: Remove card from PC and power on PC without card and delete the NVIDIA folder in C/:: Drive Step 4: Run DDU again and select NVIDIA and remove all directory files and drivers, the sut down Step 5: Put GTX 1080 TI card back into computer and power on Step 6: Install drivers from CD that came with Card Step 7: Install newest version of PXOC from EVGA website Step 8: Restart and wallah everything is running as it should

If the issue persists, I would recommend performing that procedure again, except don't perform step 7 (don't install Precision) and see if the card works properly when controlled by its video card BIOS.

I've always suspected something was not right with the fans of my 1080ti icx. I started a thread about it a few weeks ago with pictures to prove my point, the fan will get very loud and randomly spin up to at least 50% then settle back down to some (silent) amount until the card cools down again, which is unlike any other gpu I've owned (MSI970, ASUS 1070). Now after reading what you're getting I suspect the software/bios they use on these cards is somewhat unfinished regarding fan controls. I like the sound of TechyByte's idea with removing the Precision software and drivers, but at the same time I think it's good to bring this to attention as it does seem odd for gpu's of this caliber to run this way.

So setting all the fans to like 50% static speed, and closing precision doesn't fix the issue?

I have the same issue except now the fan3 doesnt respond to PX at all for fan3 it runs perma 4500rpm. If I manually set it to 60% and take it off auto I can get the rpm to drop 2000 but thats it. I have tried the above fix attempts and no luck :(

Try using an older version of Precision X. Good Luck
