Re: GTX 280 FAN BUG???
The fan goes to 100% when you exceed 85C, then never goes back down to 40% without a restart...

Re: GTX 280 FAN BUG???
Both of my cards do it and AFAIK, everybody elses. I don't think an RMA will be of much use...

Re: GTX 280 FAN BUG???
I have the same issue and did an RMA with EVGA.The new card did the same thing and ran a little bit hotter than my original one so I sent the one I recieved through RMA back.Both would only settle back down to around 65%.EVGA is now aware of the problem because the first time I called the tech suggested an RMA but when I called back to tell them I had the same issue with the new card they said that they believed the issue to be hardware or firmware related and that Nvidia was aware of the issue.

Re: GTX 280 FAN BUG???
I wouldn't RMA a card for the fan, not when it's not even clear that it's a hardware issue. I mean everybody gets it, so I find it unlikely that all cards are defective...

Re: GTX 280 FAN BUG???
Same here, once you exit a game the fan tends stick around 60% and doesnt drop, also it seems to enter 3d mode randomly on desktop for unknown reasons which also keep the fan spinning above 60%.. Annoying.
