LOL I had a similar problem the other day because my videocard makes a noise on low speeds as if the fan hits a cable or something so I decided to run the fans set at 20 and it was running fine on desktop applications, but then I started to game and noticed the videocard got hot ( I guess it was stuck running only on 20 fan speed ) So I hit Default, Apply and Save in Precision X1 and that fixed it. (so it goes back to default settings) try that, I hope that helps

sucks to hear that but just manually add a fan somewhere next to your videocard to pull or push air and that should do the trick to cool it

Hi guys! so I bought my GPU about 10 months ago and since then I was aware that my second GPU fan wasnt spinning, so I did researches and found out that the second fan only works if the card is overheating or becomes really hot.
 
2 days ago, I started playing Miscreated and Apex Legends, my GPU temp rises up to 80-83C which is scaring me, I cant even touch my GPU, thats how hot it is, and the second fan is still not working.
 
so!
 
did I get a broken GPU from the start? if yes it is really sad because it cost me about 750$ CAD, it was my first expensive card and im terryfied about the idea of having to buy a new one.. especially when I bought a year warranty then moved to another house and lost the box which contained the package and serial number etc.
 
if its not broken, help? plz before my pc melts.
 
thanks!

  Sorry to hear you're in the situation you're in.  If I followed what you've posted here, you still have 2 months warranty remaining; For EVGA Limited Warranty RMA purposes, you do NOT need the original packaging, just make sure to follow the packing guidelines in the RMA section when sending it in.  The serial number is on a sticker on the card, you'll need a copy of the invoice or receipt to upload which hopefully you either have or can get a copy--all the info you need is here: https://www.evga.com/warranty/rmaprocess/   Who knows til you send it in for sure, but depending on whats wrong causing the inoperative fan and with the stock situation what it is you could conceivably get an upgrade for a replacement.  If for some reason you can't RMA, there are many helpful posts and linked videos here in the forums if you're worried about disassembling your card to repair, apply new thermal paste, thermal pads, etc..

This works too if you don't mind the appearance and can't find a replacement fan, OR sounds like a great excuse to investigate hunting up a water block kit if you wanted to go that route.
