I suppose you're right, it doesn't make sense to open it, and I'll RMA it. Thanks for the advice.

Will MSI void my warranty if I open the card?

Thanks for the advice! It's probably a bad card then. The card I sent in for RMA was the same model I currently have, but different serial number. I'm using a rather aggressive custom curve in afterburner (I only temporarily deleted afterburner and tried X1 to see if that would fix the problem). And I don't see how the case fans could be the problem, 3 noctua intakes on the bottom, and the rest of the fans are exhaust, meaning that I have 3 fans blowing air directly at the GPU.

Parts list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Bstq4d My GPU is from a fairly recent RMA with MSI. It's worked fine until a few days ago, with temps in the mid 70s. However, recently the GPU started hitting 80° C under load. When that happens, the fans will spin to max speed (3600rpm), regardless of what my custom fan curve says in afterburner. I've already tried using Display Driver Uninstaller, along with rolling back drivers to an older version, changing my riser cable, and switching to EVGA Precision X1. Nothing seems to work.

I bought an MSI 2080 Gaming X Trio back in August. It worked fine until I had to send it back for an unrelated issue, and I got my new one back recently. The new card works fine, except for one issue. The small fan near the left of the computer always spins at a constant speed, no matter what I do, and it's loud enough to be annoying. The fans are all set to be stationary at idle, and the other 2 fans are spinning correctly. I called support and they told me that this was supposed to happen, but it did not happen with the old one and I'd like to make it stop. Thanks for the help.
