Hi,

I don't know what is the problem and what can i do, but for 2-3 seconds the GPU(ZOTAC GAMING NVIDIA GTX 1650 OC 4GB GDDR6 128BIT) is making a noise like 'activation-deactivation'...What can be the problem? I have Intel DH61CR motherboard, from OEGStone, 8gb ram ddr3 1600mhz cl11, power supply 550w, windows 10 pro x64 and default settings(bios,windows,gpu,cpu,etc). I have the integrated 4000 hd intel gpu and 1650 gtx too, i need to install nvidia geforce experience, or to install driver from your site? I need firestorm?

pretty sure that noise is not coming from your graphics card, rather it is your mechanical hard drive.
the Click of Death in fact!

you are right, was from HDD or SSD, so i moved both on different positions, and for now is ok
if you have another solution, or if is not right what i done, tell me

it will definitely be the HDD, not the SSD as they have no moving parts.
and simply moving the HDD would not fix a Click of Death problem.
more likely it has just made it harder to hear!

if there is any data on that HDD you want, copy it off while you still can - that drive is failing!!!
once you have the data, replace the drive. :)
