GTX 1060 Fan Noise?

I recently upgraded to a Gigabyte Windforce OC GTX 1060 6GB (not the G1) and im noticing an almost rattling noise when the fans hit 73%. I noticed this the first time i started a benchmark and the fans spun up, and I used afterburner to increase the fans slowly to find exactly where it starts, at 73%. My case is well cable managed and im not entirely in the mood to try to RMA, so any suggestions on what it could be?

AMD R5 1600 @ 3.6 GHz // 2x8GB Corsair LPX 3200MHz // Gigabyte Windforce OC 1060 6GB @ 2100MHz // Corsair RMx 650 // Crucial 275GB + Seagate 2TB 7200RPM // NZXT S340 Elite

if nothing is interfering with the fans themselves, then you need to RMA the card. it's slightly broken now, but in the future it will get much more broken.
