I have 2x gtx 680 sc sig 2's in SLI and for some reason unless I have precision x running open/running my fans on my gpu's don't kick in when things start to get hot? 
 
I have no idea why this is the case or is it that I require precision X running to have use of the fans?

    To add to this issue, battlefield 3 no longer seems to like the fact I have precision x open and crashes before I get into a game with it running. Or if I close it start the game then alt tab to open precision I get about 5 mins before I crash.

    Make sure you have Precision X v3.0.4. I had the BF3 crashing issue when I first got my 680 (and had v3.0.3), but it seems fine now. Do the fans come on at all, or just at a lot higher temps than when Precision X is active? That is normal if they just come on a LOT later than the fan curve set up in Precision X. It is recommended to use the fan curve & Precision X, as the kepler GPU's downclock at 70*C.

    Hi thanks for the reply, I have the up to date version of Px. 
     
    I just had a go with the OC scanner X software with and without Px running and the fans do seem to increase but very slowly so looks like I may have been wrong regarding the fans not increasing. 
     
    I was still getting really bad issues with BF3 so I have uninstalled and re-installed Px and Origin and I am currently re down loading BF3 so it will all be fresh. 
     
    If that fails I will go for a windows refresh.

    Well thankfully I went for a refresh before BF3 finished D/L as It deleted it all haha! 
     
    So jjust waiting on the massive down load to finish.

    Just to let you all know, if anyone was having the same issues, some how during all of this my BIOS/Over Clock on my CPU had become corrupt and basically was just BSOD'ing when running Intel Burn. A quick BIOS reset and Over clock re-instate and everything is happy again thankfully!
