• CPU cooler : Noctua NH-D15

• 3 x Arctic PWM PST 140mm (daisy-chained) as Front intake

• 1 x Arctic PWM PST 140mm as Back exhaust

• 1 x Arctic PWM PST 140mm as Top (back) exhaust

• Case : NZXT H5 Flow

• CPU : Ryzen 7800x3D

This works like a charm. As you can see, idling in Windows the fans barely spin and the CPU sits at a cool 40°C. No noise!

I set the curves so that the case fans ramp up to max 60%, and the CPU fans to 100%. It does get a little bit more noisy then but still very bearable. CPU temp doesn't go beyond 80°C even when running things like Cinebench, OCCT, etc.

I love this build and I love Fan Control!

Setting your GPU fan speed is pretty straightforward, and there are a number of software that can give you complete control: afterburner, precision and many others.

Is there an equivalent for CPU fan speed?

Hello,

back in the good old days I used the software called "SpeedFan" to control all my fan speeds, it was an awesome and easy to use and setup tool where you could define graphs with speeds and temperatures for all your sensors and link your fans to specific sensors (for example link a fan blowing through the sidedoor onto the GPU to the GPU temperature and obviously the fans on CPU cooler to CPU) and have them adjust the fans speeds accordingly to the devices temperature.

SpeedFan was discontinued though and I have changed to a software called Argus Monitor which really lacks ease of use, resets your settings every other update and is just way too expensive to maintain.

Are you guys just using the BIOS? Do you adjust stuff in there or do you use stock settings? I like my PC to be really quiet, so I'm trying to figure out what is the currently best way to control fan speeds.

I'm currently running my Noctua NH-D14 to cool a Ryzen 7 2700X on MSI X470 Gaming Plus with a 1080 and am looking to upgrade to i7 12700F + B660 DDR4 MB and a 3080.

Case fans, cpu heat sink fans, radiator fans, etc…

How many fans does your system have and how do you control the speed of them all? I’m looking for ideas…

Hi everyone hope you’re having a good day, does anyone know any good free software to change fan curves and any tips on optimizing fan curves?

I have a Deep Cool CPU cooler and case fan, along with 2 bequite Silent Wings 3 case fans - how can I control the fan speed from my computer?

Any recommendations in software? Thanks.

I‘m only reaching 50-60C on my GPU and CPU while being impressed with the performance at 1440p with most games reaching 200-300fps. My Setup is a Ryzen 7600x and RX7900XT.

Does it make sense to lower the fans speed to get a quieter build? I have no clue how fan curves and optimisation works…

Going to put the fans linked below in my build but need to be able to control the speed. Will the fan hub below work? If so what software would I need to control the speed?

Hello, last week I finished my first PC build.

I've noticed that my CPU cooler fans are annoyingly loud when I'm only on the desktop and the temperatures are only about 40-45°C. My cooler is the Corsair H100i v2. I then downloaded the Corsair Link to make a custom fan speed curve, with the result that now the cooler is quiet when on desktop but it's not increasing it's speed enough when gaming, even though, for testing purposes I set the speed to 100% when the CPU reaches 50°C.

Does anyone know a software that reliably changes the fan speed?

so i have a dell optiplex that i just slapped a gpu in and it works really well but my cpu has very high temps sometimes getting to 100c and i figured out why. it was my fans they where running pretty slow even at high temps so i went into bios and i could only find 1 setting related to fan speed and if i turn it on my fans will always run at MAX speed. it seriously sounded like the inside of a plane during take off so i was wondering if there is a way to have more control over my fan speeds or do i just have to have high cpu temps because how loud those fans where was genuinely concerning

Hello everyone! I have Lenovo e480 here. I want to be able to control speed of my laptop speed myself.(So I can put the fan to the max, or to lower the speed) How can I do that if I can?

I have an MSI B450 Tomahawk and be quiet silent wings 3 140mm PWM high-speed fans that are hooked up to the motherboard. How do I adjust the fan speeds? I tried looking for the MSI software for my motherboard but when I downloaded it, it said it wasn't for my motherboard. I would appreciate if anyone could point me towards the right software or any other solutions.

Hi

I'm wondering what software (if any) do you guys use to control the fan speed curve of your laptops ? My G3 THROTTLES LIKE HELL, and i'd like to set that to max fan speed and reduce throttling.

was looking for a software that would let me monitor all my fan speeds and change them if need be i saw a few posts from 2 to 3 years ago about hwinfo and fan control from gifthub and was wondering if they are still good programs and if so what one would be the better one.

also this is probably a dumb question but i also use afterburner to monitor my cpu temp and use it to auto my gpu fan speed if i had hwinfo or fan control would it cause issues with afterburner auto?

thanks for taking your time to answer my questions.

I got an nzxt h400i case that has the smart hub thing. But I connected Corsair ml140 pro fans to it and I can’t control them. Should I plug them directly into the mobo and what should I use to be able to control all fans?

So I bought a bunch of these on Amazon

They spin way to fast and make to much noise. I have some pc building experience and know about pwm fans and such but have minimal electrical knowledge. How could I best control the speed on these things if at all? Diodes/resistor thingies soldering in the wires like pc fans? A dedicated speed control circuit?. I live in Europe and the fans make use of wall plugs.

Reddit deletes my post with links to these products so here are some specs:
The fans I bought on amazon: 230 V/50 Hz 8 watts
I found something on Aliexpress that looks to be useful the description is: "DC 1.8V-15V 2A 30W PWM Motor Speed Controller Regulator Low Voltage Fan Speed Control Switch PWM Adjustable Drive 5V 12V"

How do I control my fan speed and what is it recommended to put it on?

Just built my first SFF PC in the M1 and first one in over 10 years! Looking to do a bit of noise control and have 2 bottom 120mm fans as intake and want to control their fan curve based on gpu temps.

So what fan control software are you guys using for this scenario?
