So I bought a used pny geforce gtx 1080 ti 11gb, saved about 250 dollars. Everything was working fine when 2 months later one fan quit up on me. But since the cooling on the card was so good I wasnt big of a deal. Now about 5 months later another fan "broke" whhich left me with only one working fan. Now here the thing, when I say the fans are "broken" they aint acutally broken. They come on an off as they please as now the first fan that failed is working again. Anyway to the point, so the only working fan goes to full speed which I expected. However now the middle fan is working again and the two working fans are on constant full speed. I didnt know why, so I uninstalled the gpu drivers, msi afterburner, and did a clean install of the card. Turn on the pc and everything is fine, but here is the weird part. As soon as I start installing the latest gpu drivers the two working fans goes back to full speed. They are full speed no matter what I do all the time,then I uninstall drivers and everything works just fine, I install driver......boom airplane in my pc. I've tried with both the newest driver and the one I've been using which has been working excellent. 

 

Before anyone tells me PNY is a shitty company and all that, yes yes I know, but I bought the card because it was one the best gtx 1080 ti (when working) and the looks on the card is by far the best I've ever seen. Since there is no option to contact the company back in Asia (read so much about useless customer service there) along with all the time it takes since the card is out of production, I'm thinking about buying a nzxt bracket and smack a aio cooler on it. But before that I wanna hear if someone else have experienced this, if so did you solve it, and lastly is it possible to make a custom loop for the gpu only? (dont worry I have enough space with my in win 909 ;) 

 

Would appreciate any answers :D

Go download DDU and use that to clean out any and all drivers before installing new drivers. You can download it here: https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

Didnt work, same thing happens. I could also mention that the fans works correctly before booting into windows. As soon as windows is loading it goes full on retard.

First, the R word is not cool.. 2nd, I would look on Tech Power ups website and see if there is a different BIOS version available for your card.
