So my 4 year old PC has always run at near enough silent, until this weekend, it has decided the rear exhaust fan should run at 100% for a while, then drop to silent and then back to 100%.
Literally nothing has changed, i’ve cleaned it, i’ve unplugged and replugged it back into the motherboard. I’ve not touched the bios.
So my case extraction fan keeps booting to 100% and dropping back down. My cpu and gpu temps are both below 60 degrees. I started gaming and my fps with a 3070 was down 30fps, so i ran a benchmark. It abandons the gpu test, so it assumed it was a gpu issue, so i swapped my 3070 for a 1060... exact same issue. The 3070 is OC’d, the 1060 isn’t.
Everything else on the benchmark is as normal. Literally nothing has changed between last weekend, when it was fine and this weekend, where the fan has been an issue and now the gpu’s.
