#Fan curves
41 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Go into bios, hardware monitor and go to your fans. There should be your system fans at the top. You will have them on DC rather than PWM. Turn it to PWM and turn on smart fan curves - then tweak them to your liking
Thats for MSI motherboards, if you don't run msi can you give your motherboard model?

Sorry Verk
Which fans do you have?
Currently when I turn on the pc it runs at full speed on the fans. I would like to run it so it's basically quiet when browsing/watching videos and then ramps up when gaming
The fans are Corsair RGB LL120's
Ahhh Corsair AIO too?
yep
it's just I really have never tweaked settings before so I'm naturally worried about screwing anything up
You should have ICUE installed yeah?
Yep
:tada: Congrats @carmine abyss, you levelled up to 5! :tada: 
Open up icue and there should be a corsair commander pro icon
Now, there should be fan profiles?
There are some presets yes - 3
What are they on?
Quiet, Balanced and Extreme
Set them to quiet
Has it always been like this or has it just recently happened?
always
I've never used icue fans so I'll leave it up to someone else - I just control my fans with bios control and software
thanks anyway 🙂
I wouldnt rly suggest going below the quiet curve but it depends on ur case & airflow + hardware really, i suggest doing some personal tweaking, lowering, hightening different curves and what not, find a curve where it doesnt idle to hot and in games same goes, not to hot, its all trial and error
i have full icue fans + h150i 360mm and run it on quiet and its never had a problem
(i5 13600k+RTX 4080)
I'm running a i9-13900k and RTX4090
Well that gets very hot, so your temperatures might just be high all the time
I really appreciate the help folks
if temps do get hot though u may need extreme on
Put your pump in the extreme mode
Pump extreme, fans quiet is probably the best middle ground
