GTX 570 TW III strange noise

Hello,
I bought recently GTX 570 TW III and it is making strange noises when the fan speed reaches from 56% to about 62% (checked with MSI afterburner)
To make it more clear: sound appears when playing some games, temperature goes up along with the fan speed. Sometimes the noise starts at about 58% and for example ends at 60%. Sometimes it starts from 60% to 62%. When the fan speed goes under or over those values the sound disappears.
Here is the sound, fan forced with MSI AB from about 58-59-60-62 (with fan speed change sound changes as well.
The card wasn't overclocked.
My question is what to do about it? Is it a reason to (i do not know how it is said) "to warranty the card"

It actually sounds like the fan blade ends are just touching something at a certain speed. Just check the fan housing and fan surrounds for a wire or something in the vicinity that could be touching. Also check the clearance of the fan blades is even for the complete circumference of the fan housing. Grab the centre of the fan with your thumb and finger and check for movement from side to side. Also check if any of the fan blades have visible chip marks or cracks in the blades.

  • 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

  • MSI GTX 570 TF III Power ed o/c Fuzzy Horizontal and vertical lines.

    Hello.
    Recently built, tested and stable PC with GPU issue. (System specs in Signature)
    I Have installed a MSI GTX 570 Power Edition O/C in my rig.  I have a clean install of Win 7 and carried out a clean install of the latest (non beta) Nvidea drivers DL'd from Nvidea site.
    Here is my problem:
    When running graphically demanding software I get fuzzy lines either horizontally or vertically across the screen (but not both at once)
    They only appear when GPU is underload.
    When running Heaven Benchmark the lines are soft and horizntal consistantly in the middle of the screen.
    When running the in the Kombuster Benchmark I get harder lines when the GPU load increases and they are vertical
    Interestingly whilst playing BF3 on Ultra no lines are present (but GPU load is not as heavy)
    I have not touched after Burner settings.
    Here is what I have tried already.
        Removed card and clean contacts (card connection to PCI slot)
        Cleaned (although brand new) mobo PCI-E slot
        Checked it is seated correctly upon reinstall
        Cleaned Power connectors and Card power connection
        Cleaned PSU modular power connection on PSU
        Changed PCI-E power cables connection on PSU (cable management model)
        Changed PCI-E power socket on PSU.
    I have looked into what Bios I have but have not found any information in regards to any other Bios releases by MSI.
    My GPU BIOS is:70.20.27.00.01
    Thanks for reading and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks  

    No problems at all.
    However when running some games,.and in particular K kombuster default "KMARK" I get those lines.
    In Heaven benchmark I h´get them horizontally but only one or 2 in the middle of the screen and very soft.
    I am sending the card back.
    No Overclock performed by me and no adjustment of any afterburner settings.
    It should work out of the box.
    Thanks for your help, and I will be sure to report back once my my new card is installed.
    Please look here for an image of what I have described. http://forums.tweaktown.com/gigabyte/47221-ga-z68xp-ud4-rev1-0-install-bios-test-procedures-questions-3.html#post413137

  • 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
    Quote
    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]

  • 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 ^^

  • 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?

  • Strange Noise from MSI GTX 770 Gaming

    I recently bought a MSI GTX 770 Gaming and it makes a strange noise. It doesn't sound like coil whine to me, more of a clicking. I also don't think its the fans as it makes the exact same noise regardless of fan speeds. However, it does seem directly related to load, the higher the clock speed the louder it gets.
    See the below video for the noise, if you listen carefully you can hear towards the end where it transitions from high load -> low load -> high light again.
    Should I be concerned?

    Board:        Asus P6T Deluxe v2
    VGA:           MSI GTX 770 Gaming
    PSU:           Corsair HX750 +3.3V@25A, +5V@25A, +12V@62A, [email protected], +5VSB@3A
    Processor:  Intel Core i7 920 @ 4.0
    MEM:          Corsair Dominator 1600 3x2gb
    HDD:          Samsung Pro 256gb SSD
    COOLER:   Corsair H80i
    OS:            Windows 7 64bit Professional
    It is definitely not the fans. The noise is irrelevant to fan speed. Also, did you copy the youtube link? I've heard coil whine and this does not sound the same. It's strange and seems to be coming from the PCB.

  • GTX 570 Twin FrozR II cold boot noise

    I got a MSI GeForce GTX 570 Twin FrozR II OC graphics card. Recently I noticed that one of the fans is making a rattling noise on cold boots. The noise lasts for about 30-40 seconds and then goes away.
    The card is just under 3 months old. Should I RMA it? Does MSI do Advanced RMA?

  • MSI TwinFrozr III GTX 570 Power Edition - Modded Bios

    Hi Guys
    I am new to this site and this may have been posted but i was unable to find it after searching.
    But is there any way to mod the bios of these cards to unlock the voltage further as the limit is 1.137mV in Afterburner
    I can pump nice scores in the  3D Mark 11
    http://3dmark.com/3dm11/1394544
    but my other Brand card can run slightly higher voltage and can produce a better scores because i can run 1.150mV
    http://3dmark.com/3dm11/1394620
    I believe this beast of a card can go further with a modded/unlocked bios and push my scores even higher because the temps on this card remain under 60 Degrees Celsius @ 970/1940/2400 @ 1.137mV (I do run my fan @ 100% speed through my benching at all times to keep temps to the extreme lows)
    Any help in the right direction would be much appreciated.
    Cheers

    Thanks a whole heap works like a charm - I am so impressed I will be recommending MSI cards/products from now on to anyone who is anyone.
    HWBOT world record for GTX 570 is not outta reach now for me now im only short 74 points - WR holder is running 5.6Ghz too im only on 5.05Ghz.
    BTW just to let you know running 1212mv with fans 100% i only hit 62 degrees Celsius (ambient air temp 20 degrees), with the help of a Scythe Kaze 3000rpm (134CFM) with airflow directly over the top and bottom the card. Highly recommend a Fan of this caliber to anyone who benches on air. Will post a pic of my setup for anyone interested in having a look very soon.
    My other brand card is getting into the low 80s and is running lower voltage (1150). This is why I will recommend MSI to everyone now. MSI claims that the Twin Frozr III runs 18 degrees cooler, well this is 100% in check and I have tested this over another non-reference which I believe has very good cooling itself.
    After sales support is 10/10, you just don't get this anymore from other companies.
    SVET big thanks again for your effort.

  • MSI gtx 570 twin frozr III - Dual Screen Windowed mode issues

    Ok, so... I was running a solo monitor 1440x900 resolution, i recently purchased a brand new asus 24 inch 1900x1080 monitor. Basically what is happening is when i play WoW or Battlefield 3 in windowed mode on the 1080p monitor the colors are not perfect. When i go full-screen on the new monitor no issues, but that is not what i want to have to live with. When i say the colors are not perfect what i mean is, for example when i look @ the sky instead of being a smooth transition or blend from one shade of the sky to the next it is bars or stripes of each shade as if i am looking at the sky in 8 bit color instead of 32 bit color. Another thing to note is that when i login to windows 7 the blue screen where i input the password has the same effect. The 1440x900 monitor is running everything just fine. the only issue is with the 1080p monitor.
    I am using DVI cabling for both, and have swapped them around to see if that was the issue, and sadly it is not. I am running the updated gpu driver, which i uninstalled and re-downloaded and installed again tonight.
    When i use the HDMI cable,  that fixes the issue but i need the HDMI for my 42 inch tv.
    Also in windows, just to cover my bases with this post, i have the native resolutions properly configured, as well as in the game for the given monitor it is being played on.
    Anyone know of a fix for this?
    i7 2600k
    asus PBZ68-v Pro/Gen3
    Msi gtx 570
    Samsung syncmaster 953bw (1440x900)
    Asus VS248 (1900x1080)
    I am more than happy to re-explain anything that may not be as descriptive or clear to you just let me know!
    EDIT!
    When i run the 24 inch 1080p new monitor as my only monitor on the system, everything runs perfectly...
    Edit #2
    Ok so i have pin pointed a possible cause
    This msi gtx 570 struggles with operating multiple displays with different resolutions, while dual screening with my 1080p television and the 1080p display, everything runs as expected. Having to also render a 1440x900 display is probably the reason i am having the graphic issues. Is there any type of utility, setting, or other fix to this type issue? also this gpu is certainly less than 2 weeks since i purchased i could get a different card to remedy this... any suggestion? if you suggest a different card can you say so with certainty that it will work properly under the condition in which 2 resolutions will be required?

    Ok, the problem is fixed and Svet i skipped a step or two. I installed the new driver with the clean install to save time for an initial attempt. What is interesting is that with the Geforce driver, only one 1920x1080 resolution was available
    The msi driver gave me 2 options, 1920x1080 and 1920x1080 (native). The latter resolution fixed the issue for whatever reason.
    The solution to this problem is so easy, when i purchased battlefield 3 it prompted me to download the geforce.com driver and i did not think anything of it at the time, lesson learned.

  • GTX 570 Twin Frozr III POWER Edition supply issues

    Hi there,
    I've always been a fan of MSi products, so when the time came for me to start looking for an upgrade to my current graphics card, I started looking to what MSi had in their range. After some research, the GTX 570 TFIII seems a good option for me, as it gives good performance at a reasnoble price.
    Unfortunately MSi seems to have fallen off the map in South Africa. I cannot find any retailer or wholesaler to even give me an eta for 570 or 580 chipset cards in the country, and I've tried all of the suppliers listed on your site and a few that arn't listed. Is there some worldwide shortage of these models? Did the ship sink? Have MSi forgotten where South Africa is?
    Any help with the procurement of these cards would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to start importing from the U.S/Europe myself, and I'd like to get an MSi card if possible, rather than go for a different make.
    regards,
    Al

    Welcome to the forum Alandrix.
    None of us work for MSI and as such we cannot answer to the supply shortage reasons.
    We are at the mercy of the importers. MSI has no official representation in South Africa and all their products are imported by these distributers who have standing contracts with MSI.
    Only these importers can supply you with information as to what is on order  by them and as to when thses shipments are expected.
    As for bringing this to MSI's attention, I suggest you open a ticket and describe the situation to them. That is the only way that MSI will be aware of any seeming neglect with regards to product availability by their official importers/distributers. >>How to contact MSI.<<
    Its unfortunately the way it is and it will remain that way until MSI decides to invest in some official representation on the African Continent.
    Check your PM. I posted a local contact that may be able to assist in your query.

  • Problem with Matrox Mini, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570, Premiere 5.5.2 and After Effects CS5.5

    Hello,
    We have a couple video workstation PC's in our office.
    Premiere and After Effects have been crashing lately with increasing frequency - about every two minutes now.
    Here is the setup:
    Hardware
    Matrox Mini - Matrox Utility release 5.5.1
    Nvidia GeForce GTX 570 - Driver release 275.33
    Intel Xeon X5660 2.8 GHz processors
    24 GB Ram
    Software
    Adobe CS5.5, specifically...
    After Effects 10.5.0.253
    Premiere 5.5.2
    Windows 7 64-bit
    We have two 21" LCD monitors in dual display running from the computer, and the Matrox Mini outputs a preview signal to a 15" CRT.
    The crashes occur when I have After Effects and Premiere open at the same time. I am editing in a Matrox 720p29.97 timeline in Premiere. I imported several compositions from AE into Premiere through Dynamic Link and am matching audio with the animations in comps. When I switch back to AE to make an edit in the comp, After Effects generates a crash warning and then gives me the opportunity to save the project under a new name. After saving, it closes down completely. The Matrox WYSIWYG Control Panel in the system tray crashes during AE's crash, disabling the preview to the CRT from Premiere and AE. Since the Premiere sequence is a Matrox preset - in order to have output to the CRT - this freezes the timeline; the video and audio no longer play. When I save and then try to close Premiere, Premiere freezes and will not close without a force quit via the Task Manager.
    In order to deal with this temporarily, I am editing in an AVCHD 720p30 sequence preset in Premiere, which doesn't send a preview feed to the CRT, obviously, since it's not a Matrox preset and the CRT is connected via the Matrox Mini. It's more than a minor inconvenience, since I use the CRT for color accuracy.
    It is frustrating, since we did not have this problem until the recent CS5.5.2 update. We have tried changing drivers for the GTX 570 and changing the Matrox utility software to other versions, but no luck.
    Is there a combination of GTX 570 drivers, Matrox software releases, and AE/Premiere settings that will make this work? I know there are "Known Issue" posts with Nvidia cards on Matrox's website, which include the GTX 570, but, again, this problem started with the Adobe CS5.5.2 update.
    Any help here would be great, and I am willing to provide more information about the system and our crashes if it helps find a solution for the community, as I know this is not an isolated problem after reading Nvidia's, Matrox's, and Adobe's forums. I just can't find a hollistic solution on any of the individual manufacturer's forums.
    Thank You.
    Jordan

    I've been running with Matrox for years, starting with the Axio LE. I do 75% broadcast work and find that the Matrox works very well with my kind of workflow. Monitoring is critical and since we have to deal with 3rd. party solutions, Matrox was my pick dating way back to 2006. Sure I've had frustrations with it, but I've made far more money off Matrox than frustration.
       Here's my nearly crash-free setup:
    Gigabyte GZ-X58A-OC moboard
    Intel 990X (only overclocking to 4.0)
    24Gb of Kingston HyperX Ram
    GTX580 Graphics Card
    Matrox MXO2-LE w/Max
    Crucial 240Gb Sata III drive (the one that has a nearly perfect score on Newegg's site)
    2 x 2Tb WD Blacks Raid 0
    2 x 1Tb WD Blacks Raid 0
    Win 7 Ultimatte (it's a high-end version of Windows that's great for keying!)
    CS5.5 Suite
    Boris Red 5
    Boris Continuum Complete 8
    Trapcode Shine, Form, 3d Stroke, Starglow, and Particular
    Optical Flares by Video CoPilot
       The reason I list all of that software, is that it all seems to get along together, including with Matrox! So, I can't say I highly endorse Matrox because I've never tried Black Magic or running an external monitor off of my video card.
        I use After Effects with all sorts of plug ins and rarely have crashes. If I put in a long day I'll have the usual crashes here and there (mainly with PremierePro), but nothing that has required evan a soft reboot of the computer.
       My frustration with Matrox is mainly the delay that often comes with Adobe coming out with a new release and Matrox taking 2 or 3 months to catch up, though when Adobe went from 5 to 5.5, there was no delay at all.
       I think that a lot of the people who trash Matrox probably haven't used a Matrox product in years. But before you listen to me, I must confess that I was an early adopter (and advocate) of SSDs and even today, many people on this forum think they're still a waste of money!
       I'll close by simply saying that I've not left Matrox after 5+ years, but keep in mind I haven't had the bad experiences that so many others seem to have had, but again, perhaps they had those bad experiences long ago.

Maybe you are looking for
