780Ti ROG Matrix noisy fan

[mmacarthur]

Recently bought an Asus GeForce GTX 780Ti ROG Matrix from OC and whilst i'm very happy with the performance of the card it has a noisy fan specifically the one nearest the DVI ports etc. If I touch the centre of the fan lightly it will go away for a while and then return, its rather annoying as I like to fun as quiet a rig as possible.

Has anyone else had this issue with the card? Is there a quick fix for this that anyone could recommend? Do I really have to RMA the card for this small but nevertheless annoying problem?

Go water cooling and never worry about a noisy fan again. Failing that, DNA sadly

Or even DSR

If he is in DSR time, absolutely.

Thanks for the replies, I'm too scared of water cooling sadly!
