Something I thought that was interesting was how even after I uninstalled all of the old video drivers, and when I still had my video card plugged in. When I would restart my computer, I could hear the video card in ultra loud mode even after the computer was finished starting up and was just sitting idle on the desktop. Why was this? I mean, the screen resolution was totally smaller, all the drivers still off yet for some reason the video card felt the need to go full power mode during this time.
I was actually starting to second guess myself if it really was the video card that was making the noise, but rather my noctua dh14 fan on my CPU making the loud noise all this time.
But in the end, it was definitely the video card making that sound. Why?
