Dear community and forum users,
yesterday while checking my corsair link interface after about 10 minutes since powering up the PC, I noticed the GPU fans were spinning, which they only do after the card reaches 60° while under heavy stress. Thing is, I had been doing nothing up to that point - in fact it turns out that the card is now constantly (and very rapidly) heating while the pc is on as if it's very actively working (when it shouldn't), and I am trying to find the reason, be it hardware or software related.
What would be your suggestions to identify the issue? I have tried rolling back the drivers already, as well as performing some basic hardware and software cleaning procedures, but the problems persists. The case is well ventilated, and until 3-4 days ago the GPU would idle at around 30°.
Thank you everyone for your considerations and potential answers, I'll be glad to provide any info I'll be requested.
Jacopo
