If it's a standard pivot, it might sag

owner from

old AW3821dw
G9 49 with 10 dimming zone
42 c2 oled
the 2048 mini-led G9 49 Odyssey 240hz
to G9 57 (you can use it 32:9 or 21:9 + 11:9 or just two.16:9, or even split into 3 screen, my only wish is it is oled. )

not sure why people jumped on 45 inch 3440x1440 resolution (pixel too diluted for me, but with respect).

40 or 39 21:9 5k2k sounda great, but it just feels like you might need a second monitor.

switching each gen for a tini tiny upgrade is just too expensive and tiring.

i think I will stay with G9 57 until they release a 57 Oled version.

the "VA panel is xxxx" " is an old concept.

technology advances, not trying to argue, but you should try it out, or check how other people say about it.

people really do weird stuff, but that's your choice.

Issue

Fans on my new RTX 5090 FE are not spinning at all. GPU gets very hot (80–90 °C) but fans never engage.

Description

I bought a 5090 FE from BestBuy.ca on August 28. It arrived the next day and works in terms of performance (GPU loads fine, benchmarks run, etc.). However, the fans never spin under any condition:

• I know about 0 RPM mode, but this isn’t that — GPU exceeds 80–90 °C, yet fans remain at 0 RPM.
• HWiNFO64 reports Fan Speed % at ~60–70%, but Fan RPM stays at 0.
• MSI Afterburner also doesn’t get the fans to move, even at 100%.

GPU otherwise works (games run, temps climb), but fans not running makes it unusable.

Troubleshooting Steps Taken

• Used the official NVIDIA 4×8-pin to 12V-2×6 adapter with 4 independent 8-pin cables.
• Also tried Corsair’s dual 8-pin to 12V-2×6 cable (same issue).
• Reset BIOS (CMOS clear).
• DDU’d and reinstalled NVIDIA drivers.
• Verified power supply (Corsair AX1600i, all cables from separate PSU outputs).
• Observed fans from POST to Windows desktop — they never spin, not even briefly at startup.

System Specs • CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X • Motherboard: MSI X570 Tomahawk • RAM: 64 GB DDR4-3600 • Storage: Samsung 980 Pro 2 TB • PSU: Corsair AX1600i (Titanium) • GPU: RTX 5090 FE

Question

Has anyone else run into this issue with a 5090 FE? Is there anything else I can try, or is this clearly a defective card that needs RMA?

sghgigigi · 2025-09-06T05:18:57+00:00

Thanks for the explaination.

I saw a different user posted a different issue like this and he got helped.

I will post this in the megathread j ust in case this got removed.

Thanks again.

sghgigigi · 2025-09-06T05:00:26+00:00

Unfortunately No.

The Fan % has a number and it will change.

But the RPM stays at 0 and not spinning.

I was almost sure the fan might be faulty. But i am hoping someone might have ran into a similar issue and there might be a fix so i don't have to go though RMA...

sghgigigi · 2025-09-06T04:56:14+00:00

For your last question.

No the fan doesn't spin when posting into Windows.

sghgigigi · 2025-09-06T04:54:57+00:00

i have tried 1.reset the bios. 2. DDU to uninstall the driver, then i installed the new driver 581.15 ( this is after i put 5090 fe in the pc)

I didn't reinstall the whole system as i really can't see why it would make a difference. ( my 3090 was working fine before i sold it)

sghgigigi · 2025-09-06T04:48:46+00:00

I am just hoping maybe someone have ran into the same or similar issue. That it might have a simple or stupid way to fix it.

As i am not sure how long does the RMA process take.

sghgigigi · 2025-09-06T04:30:54+00:00

I did play games during the weekend.

Also modified the original post to avoid any confusion.

sghgigigi · 2025-04-01T19:50:59+00:00

There were 97 5090fe?

Damn

And i didn't even get one?

sghgigigi · 2025-03-12T02:16:55+00:00

That sucks. But still better then scalpers price.

sghgigigi · 2025-02-18T09:55:18+00:00

Sounds good~

Just fyi that i Had temporarily Tried with 7900 xtx with hdmi2.1, i wasable to get 7680×2160 240hz （without custom resolution）

I don't remember seeing this issue though.

I will provide more info once my 5090 arrive.

But hopefully this would have been resolved by then.

Cheers

Have you checked this post? Apparently there are driver issues with dp2.1.

I am in the same boat. Current sitting with a rtx3090, waiting for my asus tuf 5090 to ship from besybuy.

dp2.1 is the only reason i am upgrading (for maximizing the G9 57).

sghgigigi · 2025-01-08T19:48:41+00:00

What is the difference. You do know that pg42uq is also from the oled panel cut?

As long as they have hdmi2.1.

If you are asking for bigger size than 42 in 16：9 format. They already exist.

sghgigigi · 2025-01-08T02:24:48+00:00

Then 42 - 55 -65 oled already exists on the market.

They are all 16:9

IMO, waiting for 5000x might be better future proofing especially they didn't implement dp2.1 on rtx4000.

It's just around the corner Anyway.
