GPU fan speed always at 100% but shows 0RPM

Sounds like an issue with the card's BIOS, if it's a serious issue you might consider flashing the card's BIOS. Does your CPU have integrated graphics?

I have a Sapphire Rx 480 4gb. No matter the software (msi afterburner, amd radeon/wattman, sapphire trixx) I cannot change the fan speed. even when running at 30º on idle it sounds like a jet engine. I set a custom curve that stays on 0rpm on both afterburner and wattman but it changes nothing, yet it always says it's at 0RPM. I read it may be my driver, but I downloaded the correct one with the radeon software, I even did a clean install with DDU.

 

Actually, before a few days ago it used only one fan and turned the other one at random moments, but now it uses both no matter the temp.

Is this only in windows, or does it happen when you start up and go to BIOS?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

I had to reflash the bios actually. I got this gpu bricked. It was really hard to find a working bios for it because it was a Nitro non plus and for some reason I couldn't find any for it.

 

am I screwed and have to tolerate it forever?

When it comes to BIOS issues with the card itself, unfortunately the best people to fix it are typically the service engineers. It's a pretty deep rooted problem.
