Is the fan supposed to not run if the card is cool enough? Upon installation, it didn't run, and hasn't even after the computer being on for 1hour.

I use AIDA 64 to monitor all my fans. My 7750 fan never gets below 20 rpm, ever. I often have the MB at as low as 28C. I would therefor assume the fan should always be running.

same thing with me too........i bought two. one worked with the fan alaways on.The second never worked even for a minute.....not good...

Nope, mine runs all day long. You may want to get yourself a program to check the temperature of your CPU and the GPU on the card. My computer needs 3 case fans to maintain proper temps, and screen going black is exactly what happens when you overheat and the safety circuit kicks in.

Your card should have a fan on it already. If that is not enough just turn the computer off and let it cool down. Check with the specs on your computer. You can only upgrade so far. I wanted a stronger one myself but EVGA has not made an upgrade for my computer for some time now. But shop around you may find one that I have not seen yet. Let me know if you do. I may just upgrade to a new computer with a dual or triple slot graphics card. Hope this helps you out some.

Do not worry, sounds like you bought a psu to powerful for your system. The fan has zero spin technology only turns on when needed. If your worried about your system check temps if it's boots and powers in powersupply is working correctly

Just check your space for the card. This is a physically imposing card which corrects direct to your power source, so also be sure you have existing power lines off your power supply to enable easy hook up. If you don't have the line in place, you can hook it up of course, it just takes more playing around. But the main issue is simply fitting the card in your case. Good luck. We do love its performance.

It was audible in my system.... enough so that I stopped using it. You can lower the fan speed all the way, but it was still audible, and of course it won't cool as well. When the fan is at max speed it cooled my nvidia card around 8 to 10 degrees C. Giving your video card a good cleaning will help a lot too.

I wouldn't return that just yet. Don't think this is the same model as mine, but if it's not under a load and running cold the fan is designed to adjust speed automatically and even stop. It may not be broken. That supply being 1,000 watts is going to take some heavy use before you see that fan come on I bet. My 750 stops all the time running 3 mechanical hard drives a ssd and 2 video cards.

No, I don't have that problem. I never noticed a fan running until I read this email. Now, I can hear a slight hum occasionally. But nothing you should ever notice. Yours is not right.

The card does get very hot. You can increase the max fan speed to help cool it off. This will make the card louder but it's a trade off.

Not the fan, the heatsink. My heatsink did. I took it off, and using my own, but probably not a big difference.

The fan should come on when plugged in. Return it before it before it over heats and isn't repairable.

Nope the card is VERY quiet but of course i have a water cooled system which is loud so you don't here it the fan idles at 26% and max fan is 55% and max temp that I have seen it hit is 62 degrees Celsius and that was under full load i recommend this card

i would try it and see if it works . i have used them before and seemed to work ok. does it fit the cpu like your other fan? if yes give it a try. and i would check your bios to see if the fan is working at or near the speed that`s normal. a lot of boards have bios that tell you the operating speed of the fan

Are the fans spinning when its powered up? Make sure the video card is hooked up correctly and it has power. It may be dead on arrival

There is a teeny-tiny switch located on the side of the card beneath the power connectors that governs the behavior of the fans. In the default setting, only one fan runs at low temperatures; the other two start up as the temperature of the card rises. In the other setting, all fans run all the time, but at speeds governed by card temperature.

Hi, Michael. I can't tell, because my other 5 case fans hide it. I can tell you this: the overall noise of the whole system is pretty low. To illustrate this, I had to turn off the air conditioner to notice it. So, the card's fan contribution to noise must be next to nothing. I hope it's useful.
