Hi, I hope anyone can help me with my GPU issue.
About 3 weeks ago, i noticed my GPU has gotten louder, out of nowhere. I did not really bother with that, but for about a week I had random PC shutdowns. I then Downloaded GPU Temp to check my temps and at times i would hit 70/80°C. I opened my case and realized that my fan had stopped spinning.
The GPU is an ASUS RTX 3050 (single fan). I took it out, dismantled it and watched some vids on how to clean the fans. For some reason i cannot get the motor off of the fan, as if its glued or something and i dont wanna break it by putting any more force onto it.
I tried MSI afterburner, to see if its gonna do anything, but the fan seems to be dead. Does anyone have any idea for a cause? Or is it just a replacing job from now on?
Gonna add a pic of the fan too, maybe someone knows about the motors on those.
kind regards
