Anybody remember that card? Ah well anyways.. I have it on a computer at home and it worked perfectly fine until now, it even ran bf4 on medium. The problem is about the fan for sure i tried msi afterburner and it helped for a while, but now the problem is back again. Its about the fan not spinning , i usually just touch it lightly and it start spinning again.. But thats not ideal is it? Would be glad if someone could help :P

About dust, Its not dusty i cleaned it.

Please don't tell me to buy a new card.. My computer is soon getting upgraded to a 390 but that one is just a pc i wanna fix to run my sister's games like acb and sims.. Dont need a new card for that just to fix the card

I still have one of those cards but it could be a sign that it is dying so I would look into a replacement

I had the same problem with one of my cards. The only thing that really worked was to set the fan speed higher. So instead of ramping the fan up slowly I tried to find a percentage where the fans would always start on their own (manually). I then set this speed as the base speed of it.
 
So basically a normal fancurve but with a higher base rpm.
