Yeah extremely happy with the performance of the card. Never went above 63 degrees either on a custom fan curve.
Trying to reduce fan speeds to give the card extra power next.

Firestrike score is decent, had to downclock the core slightly as it driver crashed due to lack of voltage.
Core was hitting 1594 but dropped as it was hitting the 110% limit easily.
Memory was increased though to 4131 which is 8262 effective. Memory on these cards is crazy
Increased my CPU overclock slightly too (4725Mhz)
Don't like 3dMark as it depends so much on your CPU. Graphics score is bonkers, only 1000 points off the 980's on the score board. Has beaten Titans, 290x, 780Tis, etc

Anybody with fan issues on MSI cards?
If it's a good PSU is totally fine. I don't go over 400w (from the wall).
Everything's fine here.
Yes. Front fan stops spinning, other fan ramps up. Touching the front fan gets it going again, until it ramps up and down again.

Get onto who you bought it from and have it replaced?

I only noticed it started happening yesterday (I think). There are other reports of it happening, so I thought I would give it a day or two to see what it turned out to be.
EDIT: oh, and Overclockers are out of stock too

Do the Gigabyte 970's fans only start when it reaches 60c like the MSI or is it a different system?
Thanks
