570 GTX Twin Frozr III strange noises

Hi all, hope someone will know what's going on with my video card;
When I am on a game, it makes a strange buzzing noise
If i try using Kombustor, it makes a strange whirring noise
It seems to come from underneath the fan closest to the dvi ports
However, it doesn't appear to be coming directly from the fan itself, because when i'm not doing anything, I can change their speed, and they don't make any noise beyond their normal fan noise levels
Has anyone else experienced, or know what could be happening with my card?
Is it even safe to continue using?
Thanks, J Green

As far as I can tell, it's coming from somewhere under the video card fan; someone has suggested it's the capacitors, and that if so it's safe to use, but i'm not so confident

570 GTX Twin Frozr II OC - Stability issues with newest drivers

Hi there,
Been noticing lately that i've come across a nasty 280.26 Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding issue with my 570 SLI.
Some people running the 280.26 drivers have also reported, while others have said increasing voltage has fixed their problem.
Could I get some support in finding out how/what to set my voltages too?
The cards are 570 GTX Twin Frozr II OCs. I did get a bios update earlier in the year after some problems, they were clocked at the wrong speed. (786mh instead of 750mhz)
GPU-Z shows im running bios 70.10.17.00.03
Is there a newer one?
Thanks

You say the voltage range is upto 1.25mv , but how can a game be unstable but not make use of the 1.25mV barrier? Who is responsible for using the extra voltage when required?
People state they are increasing their mV to make some DX 11 games stable, but how?
If what your telling me, is that the cards are already set to use an increased voltage, why aren't they doing so?
As you can see, under load.... the higher mV range isn't used so the overclocks on the cards are pointless. The more games which come out that use DX11, the more problems you will get.
If it's down to drivers, someone needs to get onto nVidia from a corporate or business level because they won't respond to the end user, they just blame you guys for everything.

Read again my replies, seems you misread most of the parts
Quote from: Arthur Hucksake on 02-September-11, 21:09:00
To add to that, I have to set the voltage to 1.00mv in Afterburner and to get Deus Ex HR more stable with the 280.26 drivers.
So what gives? Is it safe to update the bios to 1.00mv somehow?
Why are these problems only getting found out with the 280.26 drivers?
Where does the customer stand here? There's a direct problem with power handling by all parties involved.

Msi 570 gtx twin frozr II series

will msi release 570 gtx with the twin frozr II cooler if so when ?

They did with the 470 so no doubt will with the 570 too. For a release date you'll need to ask MSI: >>How to contact MSI<<.

570 GTX Twin Frozr II OC - Ok to flash non OC bios?

Hi there,
For stability purposes, is it safe to flash the reference non overclock edition bios for these Twin Frozr II OCs?
I'm sick of having to use MSI Afterburner to slightly lower clocks and if I RMA the cards, they will just run benchmarks and Unigine... deem them fine and send them back.
The problems I have experienced are limited to certain DX11 games and lowering the clocks a bit seems to fix the issue.
I don't mind sacrificing 5 fps if it means stability. I've got SLI so it's not a big deal.

Deus Ex HR ...crashes
BF3 ...crashes
Skyrim ...crash to desktop without error
Lowering the clocks makes the system more stable and I don't want to use a softmod in Windows, rather not use Afterburner tbh.
Why I want to know if using the regular Twin Frozr II bios (non OC edition) would be ok.

Geforce GTX 570 Twin Frozr III PE/OC and BSOD

Hi,
I have an MSI Geforce GTX 570 Twin Frozr III PE/OC which appears to be causing system instability (graphical corruption upon boot i.e before windows), and BSOD. It typically occurs from a cold boot resulting in BSOD after the Windows logo. This will occur 2-3 times. The system then runs stably.
I have tracked this problem down to this card when running at x16 mode in my primary PCIe slot (slot 2, x16_1) on my motherboard. It does not occur if the card is in slot 5 (x16_2) where it only runs at x8 speed (2.5Gb/s rather than 5Gb/s). This does not occur if I place a borrowed Geforce GTX 260 in the primary PCIe slot (it runs at x16 fine and causes no such system instability).
I have tried out various mobo BIOS updates, checked all my system files, updated (and rolled back) my NVIDIA drivers, and checked my memory for errors with Memtest 86+. I cannot find any updates to my video card BIOS.
Can I assume the card is faulty, or does anyone have any other possible solutions?
Spec is:
Windows 7 64-bit
Intel I5-2500K
Asus P8Z68V-Gen 3 mobo
8Gb Corsair DDR3 1800 mem
MSI Geforce GTX Twin Frozr III PE/OC
Cheers!

Its a Corsair 750TX V2 (750 watt). I am also running 1 SSD, 2 hard drives and a blue-ray optical drive. You don't think its too much for the PSU do you?
The PSU its plenty enough

No I haven't tried it on another computer and I don't think its very likely I'll get the chance.
there is not much options then, except to RMA the card and to hope the problem to be there.
[else the problem will remain]

Is the MSI 570gtx twin frozr iii being discontinued

Newegg has this card as deactivated, Amazon has it temporarily out of stock, and Tigerdirect used to carry it now it is gone. I ordered mine from Amazon last May 25 and it still has not shipped. What's happening to this card??

^same!
BUMP!
I ordered this card in one online shop on the 30th of June. It was one of the very few shops in Germany where it was listed as available. The next day I got a message that the card would be delivered on the 13th of JULY!
On the 13th of July I received a mail from the shop, that the card won't be shipped until the 27th. In the meantime no online shop had this card listed as available!
I cancelled my order on the 13th and ordered from another place where I was assured that a shipping was underway due 21st. Yesterday I called them only to find out that the shipment has been delayed. It is now expected in 11 days! This means that they are expecting the cards around the 1st of AUGUST! You cannot find an MSI N570 GTX Twin Frozr III PE OC in any online shop in Germany to this day.
I ordered my card on the 30th of June and it will be more than a month before I get it. This card vanished from the market here for the whole month of July. As a passionate fan and potential customer, I'd very much appreciate an explanation.
Thanks!

GTX 570 Twin Frozr III POWER Edition

Hey guys,
i just got the GTX 570 Twin Frozr III POWER Edition and i love the card but it seems to run quite loud at fan speed above 48% so i made a custom fan control in afterburner
and the card runs at 71C - 75C under full load in games(crysis2, witcher 2), are those temperatures too high? if not what is the max safe temp i should be running at?
thank you =]

Quote from: Henry on 31-July-11, 05:13:04
Those temps are normal under a heavy load, nothing at all to worry about.
some people said i can lower the fan speed and just let the card run at 80C, so my last question is:
Is 80C under load an acceptable temperature to run this card at for let's say 4 non-stop gaming hours a day?
and thanks for reply ^^

MSI GTX 570 Twin Frozr III POWER Edition OC - Dual monitors IDLE higher temp

I have MSI GTX 570 Twin Frozr III POWER Edition OC, when I attached second monitor to this card temperature in IDLE mode on this card goes higher from ~38C with one monitor to around ~45-6C with second.
Card with attached two monitors do not goes in 2D mode, I readed its a nvidia bug and I should upgdate my BIOS.

Unstable GTX 570 Twin Frozr III OC

My brand new MSI GTX 570 Twin Frozr III OC is unstable. When under load suddenly the sound hangs and the GTX shuts down for a second and the screen goes black. After this it works again. Some games can handle this, but with others I'm back @ desktop.
My rig:
- Intel i7 2600K
- Asrock P67 Pro3 B3
- Corsair Vengeance 2 x 4GB
- Cooler Master Powersupply Realpower Pro 700W Modular
I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate (64bit)
Is this problem due to the known stability issues and should I have a VBIOS update? If so which one, because GTX570 Twin Frozr III OC isn't on your BIOS update list.

Back again...
Today I installed a new PSU (Corsair GS700 single rail with 56 A over +12V) and started playing Bioshock 2 because the error used to occur the most often playing that game.
I played half an hour feeling more and more relieved when suddenly..... same sh*t happened.

I think we can rule out that it's a PSU problem. My mobo, processor and RAM are also new so maybe the problem is not the card. I already tested the RAM with memtest with no errors.
I will try to find another PC to test the card in. Can I do something else to maybe test the motherboard or processor?

Msi GTX 570 Twin Frozr III PE/OC cooler?

I wanted to know, is this card built with nvidia's 'vapor chamber' or is that completely replaced by the twin frozr III blade cooler?

lol Svet i thought you would have known better
To thread starter;
its heat pipe based.
kinda like so

Should I get an MSI GTX 560 Ti 448 Twin Frozr III?

I'm thinking of upgrading my graphics card and obviously I'm looking to get one that'll go well together with Premiere (CS 5.5). For now, I've set my sights on the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III 1280 MB. I'm especially attracted to this card, as from my research it should be particularly quiet in desktop use, which is essential to me. Would this be a good choice, or should I be looking at GTX 570 for instance, or a card with more memory?

Arve,
I appreciate the effective and quiet cooling provided by MSI's non-reference designs. I don't have the exact card you mention, but have a system with a MSI GTX 460 Hawk (twin fans, similar to the Frozr design) and it performs WAY quieter than the GTX 260 reference card I had prior to that. I would not be worried at all regarding noise and cooling with 120mm case fans. When comparing how much air 120mm fans can move to clear video card (and CPU) heat from your case vs. the reference GTX cards pushing air through a VERY tiny space, you can expect quieter and more effective cooling with the Frozer. The only possible caveat that I can think of with the Frozr is that you need at lease 1/2" of space in front of both fans so that air can easily enter the fans. If you have a motherboard / PCIe situation where you need to put a card immediately next to the Frozr, then you should go with a reference design; I suspect that gamers wanting 2, 3, or even 4 video cards running in SLI has a lot to do with why the various "big fan" designs are not more common in the market.
Additional to the cooling subject being discussed so far, there is another Newegg listed GTX 560Ti listed with less cores but 2GB of video RAM. Depending on if you ever edit anything with large frame needs such as large photos in video slide shows or RED 4k, etc., possibly the larger video buffer would be more advantageous to you system than the one you mention above that has a slightly higher core count.

[Tech Help Needed] GTX 660 Twin Frozr III 2GB SC Fan Stops Working

Hello everyone.
It's extremely rare for me to have computer issues, but this time it happened.
MSI GTX 660 Twin Frozr III 2GB SC, and here's the issue:
Whenever i turn on the computer the gpu fans spin for around 5seconds and after that they stop, for now they seem fine since i'm usually idling for the 1st 30minutes or so, but when i start playing games the gpu temperatures skyrocket to around 60-70 idling in-game and the fans just won't start working, yes the the psu cables are connected to the gpu, bla bla ( duh ). i've had the gpu for around 2years and it worked fine but all of a "sudden" the fans just seem to not work and it starts getting very high temperatures, i've read someone complaining about the same issue and he was told to replace his gpu bios with some uefi bios and he said that the uefi update solved his fan issues which were the same as mine.
Now my problem is, i've never done that "Bios Flashing" and things like that and i don't know if my Board is compatible. If it worked for that person then it should work for me since the symptoms are literally the same. I've tried uninstalling the gpu drivers completely and installed again, the issue still persists.
If it's of any reference i own the following setup:
MB : ROG Asus Crosshair IV Formula
CPU : AMD Phenom II X6 1090T BE
GPU : MSI GTX 660 Twin Frozr III 2GB SC
RAM : 2x4GB G.Skill Ripjaw X 1600Mhz
PSU: Corsair GS 700 Gaming Series ( yes its more than enough and good enough )
I've literally had no problems whatsoever with my system for a few years now, and just like that the fans don't want to work, i can play games and what not, but at around 70ºC with no fans running ..... i've tried using MSI Afterburner to boost the fan speed, the fan speed setting gets set but the rpm stays at 0. i also made it to run on windows start and its still at 0 RPM.
Will the uefi bios solve my problem like it did to the other person with the exact same issue?
Thank you for your time spent reading, hopefully it will be solved.

Still no reply after 2 days, impressive support right there ... every other post that came after got replied ...
Anyway, if its also relevant about my issue :
- Fans briefly spin after i press the power button to turn on my computer and stop right after around 3-5s and never spin again until i shutdown and power on again for the same brief spin.
- If i force the fans on Afterburner to 90% or above ( 100% ) they spin and make unsupportable noise.
Also if its of any relevance :
N660 TF 2GD5/OC
S/N: 602 - V287 - 050B1302044857
At least provide me with the most up-to-date uefi/gop vbios or whatever that is, to see if it fixes my problem, otherwise recommend me a substitute cooling system that i can use ( a good one, not 3rd rated ) to replace the stock cooling in this because i don't have the money to get another card, and if i get one it won't be from msi for sure.
Very dissapointed.

GTX 570 OC Twin Frozr II Artifacts started appearing today?

Hi.
So today, I was tweaking a config file for Rage as everyone knows that game has pathetic graphic options, and I noticed I started getting some weird visual artifacts. I know this game hasn't had the smoothest launch so I thought maybe it was only the game. Now all my games are doing it. I've just tested it League of Legends and Hard Reset and the same thing is happening. These games were working perfect yesterday (And all week).
I was running the new Nvidia 285.38 beta drivers, so I thought maybe it was a driver issue so I back-rolled to the 280.26 drivers and still the same thing. I know the latter driver is stable as I was using it fine before I upgraded to the beta drivers.
I've attached screenshots below on what I am experiencing.
http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/542907315034022324/9CBD18E3FABD467364E7665BA44668585FC0C912/

http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/9748/hardreset20111007164732.jpg
My system specs are:
Windows 7 Ultimate
i5 2500k @ stock
Gigabyte P67A-UD4-B3 Motherboard
GTX 570 OC Twin Frozr II @ stock
8GB DDR3 RAM
Corsair Force GT 120GB SSD
Anyone have any ideas on what I can do? My system is stable, all drivers/bios/firmware etc are up to date. I don't OC anything. My GPU temp's are fine sitting on 36 degrees atm and usually 60ish in-game. The only thing I've done different recently was I left my computer on overnight to download today ( I rarely ever do this).
Oh and I have to mention, this is beyond frustrating. I just had my first Twin Frozr II replaced with this one on Tuesday because of a faulty fan, and now this one isn't looking too good either. I'm seriously not going to be happy if I have to wait 2 weeks again to replace this card, considering I don't have a spare card to use and my motherboard doesn't have onboard video which will render my PC unusable again for 2 weeks if this card is faulty (Possible FORCING me to buy another GPU to use in the mean time). I can't say I'm too impressed with MSI's quality control so far (Unless I just have some serious bad luck) and this might have turned me off their products for good.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Yes, flashing to the latest VBIOS can improve VGA stability is you have stability issues.
You can read more about it at: https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/msi-nvidia-graphics-cards-from-570-580-series-read-here
What utility do I need to flash the VBIOS? And how do I even check what VBIOS I have? Maybe I have the latest version already.
It says
"Users who download BIOS from here (not using Live Update) should use the flash utility included in the downloaded compressed file when doing the BIOS update. To avoid BIOS update failure, please do not use older versions of the update utility or utilities not provided by MSI."
But there is no utility included in NV225MS.222, just the actual NV225MS.222 file?
My computer was also doing some weird stuff last night. First I had my bios tell me that my system recovered from a boot failure due to overclock settings etc, which is strange because because I don't overclock. The symptoms I'm having (Artifacts in games) is the kind of thing you usually get from a bad overclock. I wonder if MSY replaced my GPU with a refurbished model or something?
Then it got stuck in an endless restart cycle (Which now makes me think my power supply is messing up or something). I left my computer off overnight and it seemed to boot up his morning. I've reset my bios to default settings, uninstalled the previous nvidia drivers, ran driver sweeper in safe mode and installed the latest MSY drivers and it seems to be running ok now. Though, I haven't checked to see if I get any artifacts yet with the MSY Nvidia 266.77 Driver. I'll report back and see if I do.

Msi Gtx 680 Twin Frozr, cold boot noise

So about 3 out of every 10 times I turn on my computer, it sounds like one of the fans running at full speed or something, it's very loud.
I dont know what it is . Its like rattling noises, grinding noise only on cold boot. When Windows start then all is quiet. I think its from graphic card.
Sometimes all is quiet when i boot pc, sometimes not. Its very rarely , and only when i booting pc and when windows start all is quiet.

Quote from: xmad on 16-October-12, 23:01:43
Perhaps some clarification is in order.
Is the fan spinning at full speed sometimes or making funny noises like the fan isn't spinning correctly.
You have two entirely different discriptions going on here. Running a full speed is one thing, grinding or vibration noises are another.
While it is working correctly use afterburner to increase the fan speed to 100%, there shouldn't be any rattling or grinding or anything. Same thing at start-up, they may goto 100% in reverse to clear dust, but they shouldn't grind or rattle.
You say: "Same thing at start-up, they may goto 100% in reverse to clear dust, but they shouldn't grind or rattle."
But Msi Gtx 680 Twin Frozr III dont have that feature. <--- I have that card. Only Gtx 680 Lighting got it.
