GPU revving / "breathing"

[FirefexD]

I had an Bluescreen today. Thats why I updatet all my drivers and since then my gpu is kinda breathing. like spinning up faster than it should be and then stopping again. (its a relativly new build but I had the GPU from the build before). 

Card is a 980ti btw.

i made a gif of the behaviour. You can see that it should constantly be at 10% fan speed, but goes much higher and then stops. 

 

I tried reinstalling the drivers with ddu before but it didnt matter. Even a custom fan curve didnt matter. The fans would both spin up, but in the same breathing rythm as in idle would spin even faster and lower.

 

Obious question is: Does anyone know a way to fix it?

My Gigabyte windforce does the same thing. Set the fan minimum speed to 40% and it'll stop cycling.

Yeah that's usually a suggestion to these type of problems just set it to a set speed

My rtx 2080 as a good example kept crying and the fans didn't work because the software was so new back then. (They didn't work automatically) so I had to set them in 40-50% at all times for a month until the software got a major overhaul

Ok thanks will try it. Its not really a big problem its just annoying to hear it wind up every few seconds
