Cant control the fan on my GTX 1050
I have got a Inno3D GTX 1050 for about a over month now.
It is pretty noisy the fan is always running at 100% speed. Well it sounds like 100% i dont get any RPM reading from it. I can set the percentage in the Nvidia options. But it wont make any difference. I tried it with MSI Afterburner too but didnt worked either. IS it possible that this GPU simply cant control the fan speed ? Or is there a other way to fix the noise ? Its way too loud for me.. On idle its only about 30 degrees celsius. I dont think a lower fan speed would harm it.

And no ... Google didnt helped :D

My setup :

Mainboard: MSI 970A-G43
CPU: AMD FX4100 (Overclocked to 4.3 Ghz)
Ram: 4gb DDR3
GPU: Inno3D GTX 1050
HDD: Samsung SSD 850 EVO (500gb)

Sounds like you need to install some drivers for it.

it is a possibility that the fan cannot be controlled
but most manufacturers dont block that feature..

Did you turn off auto and manually try to move the fan slider up and hit apply?

Single fan GPUs do tend to be louder than Dual+ fan configs.

If it's anything like the 1080, you will need to contact Inno3D for the BIOS update that fixes the issue with the fan constantly running at 100%..

seems to be a thing for the Inno 1050 Ti as well
fan speed doesnt manually change and cant be overclocked.

Download GPU-Z and post a validation link

Ive already mentioned that i tried MSI afterburner (Yes i hit apply xD)

Well validation link from CPU-Z: http://valid.x86.fr/udszqt

Edit: I have contacted the Inno3D support but if someone still has a idea tell me :P

i have gtx1050 too. n yeah it have 2 pin fan connector, so no fan control on this gpu.
try checking ur other fan. maybe the noise came from other fan.

GPUs have 4 pin PWN Fans.
They are controlled; Auto via the GPU Firmware/BIOS or you can manually control it via apps like EVGA Precision / ASUS GPU-Tweak / MSI Afterburner

I can clearly hear it from the gpu :P I can even stop the cpu cooler if its in idle dont makes much difference. And i just a powersupply from be quiet well ... it is quiet :D ANd i dont hhave any case fans .. so can only be GPU :P

If you can hear the GPU Fan and the GPU Temp at that time is in the 30-ish *C ranges; I'd say something is wrong with the GPU fan. It shouldn't even turn on at that range; or at least be such a low RPM you wouldn't hear it.

Is the GPU new? I would contact the place of purchase about replacing it.
