MSI GTX 970 FAN ISSUE Decided?

OP, I don't think MSI fan issues have been fixed. They even had problems with the last generation. Quite poor.

Never had any issues with the 5x or the 6x range of Nvidia cards, but they changed the fan design and continue to use the same fans, hence people reporting problems.

Hope not.

MSI's previous top line cards used high quality components with very well made heatsink, and yet they skimped on fan bearing quality by using **** sleeve bearing fans.

Very odd choice by MSI, when you consider Galax use EBR fluid bearing, and EVGA use Dual Ball Bearing.

What wound me up and people forget so easily, is the MSI rep coming onto OCUK, blaming everyone for mining and running fans at 100%, thus taking the blame away from MSI and blaming the user. People asked them specific questions and they ran off tail between legs never to be seen again.
