Hey guys,
The fan on my 4890 has been making wierd buzzing noises on/off for some time now,at least 4 months,It seems to only do it though when the fans rps slows down and the fans spinning around 50% speed,If i raise the speed of the fan the noise goes but im thinking that the fan will eventualy fail?
i have contacted XFX about it and told them,They said that if i send it out to them they will have a look at it for me.... But do XFX still make the 4890 series? for replacement? or would they just replace the fan?
Also what im concerned about is....like i said it does not do it all the time,it just randomly starts buzzing and what im worried about is that when it arrives at XFX and they test it,If it does not make a noise them they might just send it back to me and say theres nithing wrong with it!
What you guys think?
EDIT:Anyone know why my card idles at 500Mhz?....iirc it used to idle at 250Mhz on the older drivers!
