Nope not quite. My wifi card is a cheap one from AliExpress and arrived ever so slightly slanted, so I can’t screw it into the case. I previously had it double side taped to the case but I bumped my PC a few days ago and it dislodged from the pcie slot and bumped into my GPU fans. And then last night my PC just randomly shut down with an error code in the event logs related to the GPU
I don’t think any of the wifi card touched any of the GPU, it only bumped the fans as fair as I’m aware, which is why I assumed it had overheated
I only checked the error logs after the shutdown but with the whacky util numbers I might have another look and see if anything jumps out at me
So hang on: this all happened because your CPU fan went crazy?
Those numbers are really, really odd.
Have you checked windows error log?

Hmmm. Is the wifi card still plugged in?
It’s weird you’re getting all that from a slight fan touch.
Maybe the wifi card itself is the culprit?
Otherwise it could be the motherboard. Hopefully not.
Yeah. I doubt it would be the wifi card, that seems to be like the only component that hasn’t been known to contribute to GPU issues
