Starting from the 900 series, the fans won't spin up without a proprietary program loaded onto the card, with a signature preventing you from replacing it, meaning the card can only be used at idle clocks (terrible 2D and 3D performance).
The 700 series and below do have free peripheral software due to a lack of digital handcuffs.
