Hi to everyone.

Just bought new gpu card, Asus GTX 1070, everything is working, but gpu fan is producing a lot of noise.
Tried to search methods how to make it more quiet, and all solutions are based on the following:

nvidia-settings -a [gpu:0]/GPUFanControlState=1 -a [fan:0]/GPUTargetFanSpeed=$new_speed

(also with adding Coolbits to xorg.conf)

But this doesn't work for me. 
If I stop X server, gpu disables fan and works without any noise. Once I start lightdm - fan is on, speed and noise are constant, whichever value of $new_speed I set.
I tried using nvidia-driver from repository, tried several versions of proprietary nvidia driver from official site - no changes.

Has anyone met such issue before and has solution for it?

Thanks in advance.
