Fan speed on my gpu

[garret_1]

My fan jumps between 45%-75%
45% no load
75% load
Highest temp is 79°c
I'm just worried the fan is working too hard , because it sounds loud .

well it can go up to 100% quite happily, you have no problem from a 'working hard' standpoint. Make sure your case has good airflow and it'll do as little as it needs to, and be as quiet as it can be.

That's what the GPU is paid to do 😀

what GPU? what is the idle temp? I have mine set to hit 100% at 70°c lol
also i have a GTX 1070 so it can turn off the fans completely when idle but I have them set to never go under 50%

You can customize your fan curve and lower it if noise is a problem. For comparison I had an M17XR3 Alienware laptop and everyday I loaded up HWinfo and maxed my CPU and GPU fans they have spun at 100% for 6years. Of course it was off sometimes during those 6 years. but usually it wasn't off. sleeping without the sound of the fans was just too quiet.
On steam i have 9,273Hours logged so I can safely say my fans spun at 100% for at least 1.05 years. They're still working, although I got a new Desktop 21 days ago 😀

Simple answer
Your GPU will become outdated and obsolete way before your fans fail. That's what mine did.
