Hello,

I uploaded a week ago a thread were I had a problem with my GPUs fan which was buzzing. I stopped the fan with my fingers and the sound stopped. I suspected the PSU is faulty because it ls not a really good unit. I ordered a new one but it hasn't arrived yet. The problem is that the sound only came up when the card was cooling down and now it happens when the card is at idle. These thing happens at around 40C which idles at or close to that because of the hot weather. Lastly I want to mention that when I hit the front panel of my case the sound goes away.

I shared a recording to hear the sound!!

Thanks in advance!!

From your description it sounds like the fan is failing, since the noise stopped when you stopped the fan. The fan should have identifying marks somewhere on the cage (usually the back of the fan hub) that you can use to look up a direct replacement, or you could strap a case fan to the card instead.
