GTX 760 Loud when idle

[xXMike005Xx]

It is louder than usually on idle, tried restarting and all but didn't work.

Turn down fan speeds then.

How?

 

[turkey3_scratch]

Download software like EVGA PrecisionX or MSI Afterburner and create a custom fan curve.

 

[xXMike005Xx]

It is on the lowest speed, but the gpu is still loud

What is the temp of the card?

35 celsius

sounds like the bearing in the fan is going bad, contact the manufacturer to see if you can get a new shroud and fan for that model.... but being as old as it is I doubt it, may be time for a new video card.

 

[xXMike005Xx]

It's not really old it's like 3-4 months old

the card itself is 3 generations old, even if you bought it yesterday

You mean 1 generation old, since there is no 800 series and 900 is current.
