![]() This will put you somewhere around 450 RPM on the fans. I need to set 40% as the minimum for reliable fan operation and speed. Yes indeed Afterburner does not read the fan percentages right. I've also not had an issue with Afterburner resetting the fans to auto mode when a profile is applied at system boot. Personally I've never found a need to control each fan on its own and prefer Afterburner because it is more stable and more intuitive (to me) in setting up the GPU and the voltage curve. Afterburner will either sync all three fans or you can control both fans 1 and 2 together and fan three or 'right fan' as GPU-Z calls it, independently. If I turn the fans down to lets say, 40%, then I can physically see the middle fan on the card go as low as 10% or almost off at times. I am pretty sure that Chain Link is about linking the power limit and temp limit above it, not the Fans? As for FAN SYNC, yes it is on, but if you disable it, you can see that it only links 2 fans anyway. What you CAN do is link the three fans and have them all run at the same speed. ![]() "Unwinder" chose not to customize for separate fan control of EVGA cards, then MSI almost did the same thing on some models of their cards. bobmitch Look for the fan linker in Afterburner. I did actually have Precision do static fans and then Afterburner do the OC part, but they don't always play along nicely and upon boot the fan settings sometimes did reset back to Auto Curve. As long as the other two stay static at 80% (which they have so far) then I don't mind if the third speeds up or down when needed, just a little annoying that's all. I see, thank you for the detailed explanation. Fan 3 will speed up if necessary automatically, as originally designed. So, if you just don't worry about adjusting fan 3, you shouldn't need to worry about its safety. That is the only workaround I know of, but hardly desirable.Īdditionally, if you think about it, the card is designed to live perfectly happy and safe with no adjustment of the fan control at all. Using Precision, you can set fan 3 to a static speed and then close Precision. The creator or Afterburner said that, as a matter of policy, he has no interest in investing effort into proprietary features. Unless something changes (or has changed and I don't know about it), no.ĮVGA chose to operate the third fan utilizing its proprietary ICX MCU.
