I have noticed a weird new gpu burning smell when my card goes above 60*C while stress testing or playing games,Its a zotac gtx 970 normal version http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/b3053/zotac-gtx-970.html
Even my mom noticed it,so it wasn't me.My card has a screw missing on a resistor mini heatsink but it still sits flush on top of it and the thermal pad touches it properly,everything else is fine.It won't crash or do anything else but that smell.Could it be due to the missing screw or is it any other issue,i already rma'd it once and received a new card.Or could it be due to a fault in my psu.Its a corsair vs650.I suspect not.
