I installed my new graphics card to my motherboard yesterday. Everything was working fine. I updated all the drivers and installed Asus GPU tweak 2.
I put Overwatch in the settings recommended by Nvidia GeForce Experience application (60 fps, Ultra graphics, 1080p resolution).
It was working smoothly until the frames started dropping to 20 - 30 fps after 15 mins. I then put the game on windowed mode and saw the Asus software showing the GPU temperature is at 93 degrees Celsius and it was not decreasing. The fan speed % on the software was showing 0% with no change. I opened the Cabinet while overwatch was running and noticed the fan was not moving at all. I changed the settings to Overclock mode, gaming mode on the tweaker software but no luck. I even tried manually increasing fan speed in "Professional Mode".
Today I went to the service center and they told me that the fan should start running after the GPU gets hot and if it didn't my motherboard might be faulty(which I think is bs). My motherboard is Asus H97M-E. It has a PCI 3 x16 so I don't think that is creating an issue.
I reinstalled my old GTX 720 which is currently running properly.
What could be the problem?
The GPU is Asus GTX 1060 Turbo Edition 6 GB.
Edit:
I went to the other Asus service center. They stress tested it and acknowledged the issue and replaced the card in 20 mins
.
The new card works perfectly fine.
There is another issue. I have dual monitors and my second monitor has only a VGA input and my GPU has 4 HDMI and 1 DVI outputs.I used a DVI to VGA adapter but it's not working - its not getting detected. Do I need any software or anything to make it work?
The monitor is a DELL
