[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8750229, member: 591582"] Been overclocking my GPU. So, I was adjust case fans to cool the GPU, because the GPU fans resonate badly at about 35% rpm, so I'm doing low noise cooling, with this fan program called Fan Control (v81). Works very well. My favorites things are the mixed graph curves, as many data points on a graph as you want, and you can choose the % of step up or down per second so that your fans slowly rev up and down instead of all over the place. Check this out. I still use my GPU software to control my GPU fans, because I'm OC'ing through the Radeon software. I have 2x 140mm fans per fan switch, expect for the AIO, which is just one pump. All of these temps are measured in my room with the AC on 75 degrees F and my window open, so it's high 70's, close to 80 degrees F in my room. It's 90 degrees in Florida today, so here's my graphs to maximize cooling with minimal noise: [ATTACH type="full" alt="29803"]29803[/ATTACH] Notice how I have a mixed graph on my front intake fans aka front intake mix. The front intake fans are monster Nocturna 140 mm fans, a pair. They will fully run about 3000 rpm wide open, very, very loud lol. But I have those monitoring the motherboard (pch temps IIRC), the CPU and the GPU. That way, if any of those things ever overheats, my front fans will rev up super loudly so I know, in case I'm not running metrics while gaming or something. This program is a nerd's paradise. So it overrides the BIOS fan settings, only if you have the fan turned "on" inside of the Fan Control program. So, fan control only works if you open the program up. If Fan Control isn't controlling a fan, then the BIOS maintains control. This, to me, is also like a second layer of protection against cooling failures. This program is wayyyy more tunable than my BIOS is. So, if this program ever fails, my bios just takes over. My BIOS settings are pretty aggressive, so I'm all set up for heat security LOL [USER=676743]@Coolhand20th[/USER] [USER=681035]@LsGuy[/USER] [/QUOTE]
