Hello i have a 280x toxic which i bought about a month a go. When the fans spin up it does this annoying vibrating noise.

what can i do? do you think its a fan bearing?
 
Pretty sure its all in correctly. It did it before i changed the motherboard. Happens at certain rpms. Mrs is playing sims and i can hear it above the fans :(
 
Manual fan control on catalyst control at 42% causes it to do it. But anything between 40-46 does it. Its coming from the first fan sounds like its rubbing on the heat sink
 
I'll give it a try later, will prop card up and also take it out have a proper look. Anybody know what the return policy is regarding this issue? Or the warranty?
 
All sorted, examined the card and a few screws were loose around the card.

Also gave me the chance to do some cable management as im lazy

Help, still doing it. I've checked everything, i've just managed to lower the vibrating a little to only do it at 41%

is this something i can return to the manufacturer ?
