<< Solved >> Nvidia Web drivers causing fan speed to cycle

[pygmyzombie]

Hello, been searching for a fix for bit, hopefully someone here can help. My system is a 18,3 definition imac, aorus z390 ultra, core i9 9900k, with an MSI geforce gtx770 from my last build. Currently running 10.13.6 High Sierra. Most everything is working, and I was able to install nvidia web drivers fine, but when I use them, my fan speed cycles every few seconds, super annoying. If I boot with nv_disable=1, it causes quite a bit of screen stutter and other small glitches, but most importantly I can't use plugins with my audio software, as their gui comes up blank. The gui of those plugins remains fine if I use the web drivers, but again, the fan issue. I am not injecting nvidia, and boot with nvda_drv=1. I have updated webdrivers as well. Oh, also I tried adding core graphics fixup aka whatevergreen with multibeast, and the system didnt change at all, so that is currently still there.

Any suggestions? Thank you

Just an update, I uninstalled nvidia web drivers and took my gpu out. I was trying to get the gui glitch to disappear. However, after many combinations using the onboard graphics, using both I wasn't able to get rid of the glitch. So now I have found the only time I have gotten rid of the glitch is with GPU installed, web drivers installed, nvda_drv=1. But that makes the fan cycle up to 85% every 3 seconds. Maybe it's just a bad video card?

Final update for anyone that cares. I tried as many combos of Nvidia web drivers (and not) and boot flags as I could possibly imagine, with no luck. I just couldn't get the 770 to respond. I eventually gave up and bought a budget 1050 card and plopped it in. Booted with web drivers, and perfect function on the first try. I honestly don't know if the original GPU was just going bad, or what, but system works fine with no glitches or fan issues with the new card in it.
