GPU Fan spin-up at boot and during failed sleep-wakeup; otherwise fine

[Spanishparlante]

Hello! 

 

This is my first post.

 

I purchased a my first PC secondhand last summer and it works great, but it does this weird thing. When I turn it on, the Zotac Nvidea 2080 fans boost to max power for about 5 seconds, then back down to normal, then back up for a few seconds, then back to normal. This happens 2-3 times, then the system posts and windows comes up. Fine enough, I guess. You do you. The part that bothers me is that when the computer sleeps and I wake it up, it does a similar thing with the fans and a black screen, but this one does not end. I haven't let it go for more than 30 seconds because I don't want anything to melt or something. What's the deal?

 

What I've tried:

• Rebooting (obvi)
• Reseating the GPU
• Changing the CMOS battery (it needed it anyway)
• Updating the BIOS, it needed one
• Checking for GPU updates (none)

 

Specs: 

• X570 Aorus Elite
• AMD Ryzen 7 2700X
• Samsung 850 EVO 500GB
• Zotac Nvidia 2080
• 64GB G.SKILL Ripjaws 5 3200 MHz running at 2666 whatever because of the CPU bottleneck

 

Help my computer sleep please. PLEASE.

 

Thanks.

I experience this issue aswell. Still don't know what it is but I think it something windows/ryzen related.

Weird. Any others experiencing this? Is it just something I have to live with?
