Just installed a 4070 super and new PSU . Was working fine. I changed the fan curve to kick in at 75% when it reached high temps. Now At boot I get a post beep. Then the fans go 100% and all I have is a black screen. Very worried and wondering what's up?

Turned off precision boot overdrive in the bios and can get into the desktop now. Can you folks who know more than me about this stuff give me a rundown of what I should do now with the GPU? Where the fans should be at? What settings to adjust so it doesn't happen again?

Randomly did it again while i was browsing the desktop. Fans ramped up to max, pc stayed on and the screen went black. I updated the bios and chipset to the latest versions. Seems ok at the moment but i'm scared to try any games on it now. This is why people stay away from pc's. Have to turn into troubleshoot timmy now to try and get this sorted.
 
Haha hope you're right mate. If not I appreciate it anyway. You're always trying to help out and the community as a whole on here is brilliant. Would be a very lonely place if we didn't have this forum to consult when we're all trying to get some answers.
No problem fella. Even if I'm not right, as you say this is a good community and you'd work it out.

But don't be worried, whether it's a component itself that needs swapping out or a software solution that you need to get to the bottom of, it can always be worked out with tech.

Much easier than dealing with people :D
 
Oh and if you have updated the BIOS, you may still need to pull the battery or short the jumper after doing so. So you may still have to try that if things aren't yet resolved. It's normal practice to have to do that after a BIOS update.
