Hi all, I have a gtx 560 ti in one of my family's rigs, and recently it has started to begin vibrating / humming. It was good for the first little while, and even when he was playing games it was good, there is no dust at all in the system, and he had it for about 2 weeks now. the vibration gets louder as well when the temperature gets louder, I don't know if it's normal or not.

Could be a loose screw in the shroud or fan or maybe a dying fan bearing.

Sorry, forgot to say that it's the EVGA model, one fan, and yes it's intact.

It could be Coil Whine or a loose screw. Linus made a great video about this very subject (TechQuicky):

Hey is it normal for the fan to kind of push down when you push down on it? xD

Maybe a little bit. If it's moving a lot when you push down on it you may have a problem.
