Hello,
I have an XFX Swift RX 9070 XT White. The GPU makes a crackling sound that is noticeably heard near the GPU's I/O bracket when at load.
Powered on: pushing the DisplayPort cable inwards stopped the noise (although the noise does not emanate from the port).
Off: I lightly pulled the GPU...
I see 2 screws behind each of the 3 fans. I can access those by moving the fan blades one way or the other. Are those the shroud screws?
My real question is....can I remove this shroud without completely disassembling the card, removing the heatsink from the PCB?
Thanks in advance!
Chris
