Rattling noise from GPU

Naked Viking

Had my gigabyte 290 windforce for about a year now and I just noticed a weird ratting type noise from it. The noise happens every now and then, I can be playing a game or doing nothing at all, there's no specific thing I do when it starts.

Here's a recording of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0HIVNoXdK4

 

Another issue that started at about the same time that might be relevant. When I start the computer in the morning it will behave normally until right before it goes in to windows. Instead my screen loses connection as if I turned my computer off. I then press the restart button and go in to safe mode and then restart again and it boots like normal. It's been like this for about 2 days now.

Would this not be fairly visible? I didn't notice anything but I could take some pictures of it.

take some pictures, if you have to maybe the heatsink also chipped off. the vibrating from the fan should make this rattling. remove the heatsink, shake it see if theres anything

It's a bit difficult to get any good pictures without removing the card and I'm too lazy to do that at the moment. I did have the same boot problems just now though.  While it does look like I have to take the it a part, how would it have chipped? I did recently remove the card when I moved but I was extremely cautious. I had it in an anti static bag in a box with foam around it and I carried it the entire time. And this was the 23rd so the problems started two days after that.

Chipped? i dont know might not be chipped also. The fans however can be Shifted, That means that some of the blades when spinning hits the walls, making rattling sounds.Its common for me, when cleaning my case fans, i dont screw them tightly or else they will rattle on low speeds. Im also waiting other members to comment on this., Dont take my only opinion

No chance the fans are touching the walls, they'd have to be seriously smashed for that to happen on this card. Oh well, I guess I'll wait for other people to reply then.
