I have a 3070 zotac twin edge lhc oc, when browsing, so not even under load, the fans spike up and then stop again every few seconds, they reach 20.000rpm. i've tried setting up a curve on msi afterburner but it seems ignoring it. the temps are good, but I wanna know if it's a faulty card or is there a way to fix this. Another thing is that it have even random frequency clock spikes. I've tried undervolting it but it still have the same issue. Please help

Specs for info: Ryzen 5 5600x Msi tomahawk b550 Corsair platinum dom. 32gb 3200mhz Corsair rm850 (2021)

Have you tried DDU and reinstalling the drivers? and also making sure in the Nvidia control panel the power plan is set to adaptive.

 

Quote me or @TwilightRavens if you want me to see your reply. I may go inactive for a long time from time to time because I forget how to socialize, but I will be back... eventually.

Are there any background processes using the GPU?

Try booting windows into minimal mode (selective startup) and see if the issue persists. Could also try Diagnostic startup, but I can't remember if it'll load the GPU driver or not.

Is the card still in warranty?
