hello, so here is my problem. My geforce 7800 fan will turn on and off during video game play causing a huge drop in fps. It just recently started. the only things that i have done around this time are change drivers and have cmos battery and power supply replaced.
I am assuming that it is the video card fan because I hear a sound that starts whenever I start game. It used to just be a constant sound when game is running but now it starts and stops, causing the lag.
thanks for your help.
Maybe if applies take the fan cover off your Geforce card and clean out the dust. PSU unplugged and pulled carefully from the Motherboard. This maybe a hardware issue, but be sure dust buildup is not your issue.
