Is this using GPU-Z? If not, what does GPU-Z say?

Preferably I would like a full screenshot of GPU-Z, as there is a lot of information in there.

*edit, the bios shouldn't have an impact with this problem, sorry about that 

pretty sure there's a "fans spinning after shutdown" feature on your BIOS you can turn off. but i dont think this is the problem

Not too bad. How are the temps when not gaming? Have you tried other games?

40 degrees is great for idle. Did you buy the game? Things like that can happen when playing pirated games.
