Hey!
I got this card back in April and a few months ago I started hearing ticking from my PC (I was sure it's a hard drive).
I know it's the GPU because I disconnected it entirely and the ticking stopped, and I know it's the pump because it happens even when the fans are off.
The ticking is pretty loud, especially when booting.
It doesn't sound like a stuck air bubble, the rad is top mounted.
The only time the noise stops is under load, when the temprature goes above 35°C ish the noise stops.
So when idling or doing anything other than gaming, the noise persists and it's really annoying
So I'm asking you guys to help me with this problem because this is a new GPU that hasn't seen much use (when I first got it I didn't have a lot of time to use it) and is really expensive
Thanks!
