When will we see a solution to the constant ramping up and down on the fans ? I have the Sparkle 750 titan and the fans are driving me crazy. I know that this is a well known issue with arc cards, i have 16 friends who have the same issue.
Quiet 3-6 seconds, then ramping up, going down 3-6 seconds and so on.

I am about to switch out the card to a b580, but do the b580 have the same issue?

Hello esarparn,


Thank you for posting in Intel Communities.


This issue is still currently being investigated. To further check, please share the details below:


1) Current graphics driver version.

2) Motherboard make and model and its BIOS version.

Or you may simply download the Intel® System Support Utility for Windows* software so I can check your system configuration. When the download is complete, launch SSU.exe.

  • Scan: Check the box Everything.
  • Click Scan.
  • Review: When finished scanning, click Next.
  • Click Save (.txt). Attach the log file as you reply.


I'll also check if there is reported or known issue with B5080.


I will wait for your reply.



Best regards,

JeanetteC.

Hello esarparn,

 

Good day!

 

I'm still currently checking on this and would need the following information from you:

  

  1. Can you still recall when this issue started?
  2. When does this behavior happen? Is it during processing high workload such as intense games or application processing? Does this behavior have a patterned time such only happening during boot cycle? Randomly Ramping up and down?
  3. Can you please share a video when the behavior starts?

 

I hope to hear from you soon.

 

 

Best regards,

JeanetteC.

Unfortunately is my camera on the phone broken, so no video. The issue was from the very start, and it happens even in extremely light gaming and lighter applications.

The issue is that as soon as the card reaches 50 degrees Celsius, the fans start ramping up and as soon as the temp goes to 49 degrees they stop for about 3-5 seconds, long enough for the temp to reach 50 and so on...it's extremely annoying and not even custom fancurve helps.
