jsteven212 I noticed these fan threads are popping up for 3080, 3070, 3060 users every day now
maybe at some point EVGA may do something about it. I dont understand why this company always gets a pass even when issues are brought to light. if the soldering on the 3090 would have been with any other company then they would have been torn apart on youtube tech sites. and dear god at the black screen issues that EVGA cards have had more than any other. I put up with that crap for months and finally got rid of the card and have yet to ever run into another black screen on any other brand. I don't care how good the customer service is because customers should not have to put up with crap like this in the first place.

Just run it at 100% fan speed all the time and you won't have the issue. The auto throttling setting on most GPU's is fairly inaccurate and relies heavily on the temperature sensor(s). I would greatly recommend 100% fan speed all the time unless you really hate the sound.

EVGATech_DanielM Thanks for speaking with me. Have a good rest of your evening if anything changes we will keep you updated.
Yet it's November and we still need an update on this. Give us a firmware that doesn't make our fans start and stop like crazy. I have same issue with clicking on a brand new 3070 ti ftw3.

EVGA had the same problem 2 years ago with the RTX 2000 series. Don't hold your breath. They don't learn.

ty_ger07 Similarly how did they make the aux fan completely broken? The PWM standard is so simple, it's mindblowing.
And the fact that they've had several months to fix such a seemingly simple and obvious problem, makes you also wonder if it's incompetence or more serious.
Several months? Try much longer. From what I am reading about fan behavior on EVGA's 30 series all symptoms are similar to exactly same behavior I and others have experienced (and still are) with their 20 series. So it is more like few years and EVGA has known about it all along. And yes, that -IS- mindblowing and outrageous.

Or they don't care to learn as long as customers keep buying. Once customers stop buying and go elsewhere because of it they will start to care and learn very fast. I believe something VERY public needs to happen for attitude to change.

Yes, it would be not only nice but also professional, pro-active communication is IMHO mandatory part of customer service, but that requires certain attitude which they don't seem to have. Do you see them pro-actively communicating what is being done to get to the bottom of "New World" problem? No, even though that is much bigger issue than fans (not that incorrect behavior of fans on components that run hot is IMHO small problem).

I have evga 3080 ti ftw3 and I have exactly the same problem with fan3. The solution that I found for myself is to set a fixed value in the EVGA Precision X1 program for all coolers 50% Then, in MSI Afterburner, set the "Auto" value for fan1 and fan2. So I have fan1 and fan2 = "Auto" and fan3 = 50%

welp looks like I've found the thread that addresses my problem and there appears to be no further update. 3rd fan crazy high RPM, and setting it to auto doesn't help. Dropped 1400+ on a 3080ti and then another $120 on the cooler. Would be nice to see what EVGA has to say here.

I had the issue of fan 3 being erratic, and when I called EVGA they recommended an RMA. I got my new card yesterday. I moved my build and did a reformat, but this time I didn’t install PX1, which meant I didn’t get a bios/firmware update. Fan 3 has been performing perfectly. This all but confirms to me that this is bios/firmware related. I put a video on YouTube titled “EVGA 3080 Ti FTW3 Ultra Fan 3 Issues”, that showcases what I encountered. Towards the end the ramping up and down is very noticeable.

Since my card was purchase under 30 days ago, I got a band new in box card sent out. If you don’t want to RMA, then headphones and wait for an update is your best bet.

I fixed it with a RMA. Got a NiB card and I never installed Precision X1. No PX1 means I never got a bios/firmware update to break fan 3.

Same issue here with 3070 FTW3. I'm even OK to wait for the firmware(?) resolution from the EVGA side. The main question for me atm - is it OK for a card to operate in such a state (fan 3 constantly pulsing and clicks on average loads) for months or even a year?

Waiting for firmware is your call. As for is it safe for the card, I’m not entirely sure. I didn’t like it or think it was good on the fan long term, so I did an RMA.

It's a "feature". Fans on EVGA RTX 20xx series cards clicked as well. RMA'ing the card is not the solution.

Did you use Precision X1 with the new card? If so, there is the problem.

RMA and not letting PX1 break the fan control worked for me.
