2080 XC ULTRA TI Fans really Loud on Startup

[azngreentea01]

@azngreentea01 - could you do us one quick favor? Do a visual inspection and look at the fans during next boot. You should be able to see them spin backwards for a couple seconds, then stop and change direction for normal operation. Does that happen?

The Fan spin normal, doesn't change direction, it spin directly into gpu. I also notice that, it take longer for power to boot up the computer.
What i mean is that the gpu take about 4-5 seconds to see the motherboard logo. Usually with ryzen 1700x, it take about 2 seconds.

Thanks for checking. That suggests to me this EVGA card does NOT implement a dusting cycle. At least not one like MSI's that involved spinning the fan in reverse.

Not sure I would read anything into that either - especially if everything seems to run fine once fully booted.

While it may seem like this is just one computer booting up, there are really 3 major and a couple minor systems booting during the entire boot process. The main hardware (motherboard/chipset) needs to boot and during that, "basic" graphics systems must boot (or else you could not see when booting into the BIOS Setup menu or what's going on to even install an OS). The OS first boots into a basic mode (Safe Mode, for example) and then into the full OS mode. In the meantime, the full graphics systems boot too. That's a lot going on with much needing to happen in a specific order too.

Be glad we are not still using XP. It regularly took my old XP system 4+ minutes to fully boot. And that was considered a pretty quick system in its day.

I have bought this card for about 4 months ago. It starting acting weird today after i got the new CPU installed the r9 3900x. Every time my computer startup, the fan on the GPU will ran at full speed really loud for about 4 seconds, once it getting to the login screen then it will stop. I have installed the latest Driver 431.26 and Windows vers. 1903

I am seeing this exact behavior as well, and my config is a match for yours. EVGA 2080Ti, Asus X470-F, 2600X.... GPU is quiet on startup. Swap in new 3900X... GPU goes full hairdryer for a couple of seconds on startup and shutdown. Maybe a BIOS bug on the X470-F? I wish I could offer more than just "yeah, me too."

I am having the same problem with b350f gaming mb after I installed the r5 3600 and updated to 5008 bios, After I press the power button while the gpu fan spinning like crazy, I notice that the led on the right side of the rim also light up, normally it would be green, but now it’s going yellow > red > white > green then it start to boot normally. Seems like the mb is doing some check on the hardware? I tried to reinstall the gpu driver(even the one from EVGA website), reinstall gpu, ram, cpu, but still the same. I think there is bug with the bios, hopefully they can fix it in the next update.

@raygundan and @Spoonkiller can u check something for me, when you turn on your computer, the right fan on the gpu will be the only running really high? i notice that. only one fan running.

Huh? I have never seen this. Got a link?

Playstation 3 has a self cleaning fan feature.

How to Fix My PS3 That Got Wet

Water can short out some of your PS3's internal components and cause corrosion, resulting in reduced or ruined functionality. If you know that your PS3 got wet, act quickly to dry it out so there's less of a chance that the moisture will damage your console. Since the Sony PS3 warranty doesn't...

Yes, but that's a manual process - the user has to initiate it. It does not happen every time the console is powered on. Still, I think it is a nice feature - though I think I would do it outside if it has been awhile.

Mine's spinning both fans-- I can't tell from the noise or looking if it's both fans at 100%, or one at 100% and one at some lesser speed. It sounds like both are running hard, but it's difficult to be sure.

 

[azngreentea01]

I just think this got to be mother bios that messing up the gpu. I guess we all have to wait for new bios and see if that fix it.

Same problem here. Just upgraded to the 3900X w. The Gigabyte Aorus x570 ITX. My 2080 Ti FE fans run on full blast whenever in the pre-boot/pre-mb logo phase. Usually just a few seconds.

I’ve also noticed that the fan to my right appears to be going much faster than the left one. It’s hard to tell for sure, but it might even be spinning in reverse (small case, hard to tell where the breeze is coming from)

Really hoping this is benign and fixed soon...

Same for me, all I did is swap the 2600X for the 3600, and now the MSI Gaming Z 2060 runs the fans at full blast during POST.

I got the exact same problem with my GTX 1060 6Gb.
At startup, while loading windows, only ONE GPU fan will run at 100% for 3-4s, then go to 700RPM.
Sometimes, the card did that behaviour 3/4 times in, a row, running at 100%, going down to 0%, getting at 100%, then stabilising at 27% with BOTH fans running...
This is driving me crazy, and when I have this behaviour, every programs i've tests cant control the GPU fan speed.
I've also DDU my nvidia drivers, and the problem disappeard. It reapparead only after the reinstall of nVidia drivers.
Also, it only does that with a "cold" start, when the card is cold. If I turn off the computer, wait a minute, turn it on again, the behaviour will not be reproduced.

Ask the card maker.

My cards fans in a blue moon do it, i believe its a form of BIT
