Thanks dude my friends thought my PC was bad just cause it wasn’t working well but I figured out how to change it and now it’s really good and I don’t lag in games as much anymore
For some reason it’s not letting me change the percent values of the cpu fan speed no matter what settings I change like PWM or Smart Fan Mode does anybody have a fix for this?
Is it not letting you change the values at all or is it not adjusting you fan speed when you change them? If its not changing your fan speed, then make sure your fans are in fact plugged into a motherboard header, whether that is directly or through a fan hub, second thing is are your fans 4 pin or 3 pin?
Hi with me the % arent adjustable but when I choose the pwm and checked the box on smart mode all of the sudden the quiet sounds of heaven rained upon me. Thanks for explaining me the bios fan settings.
Hard to say for sure, even if you have a MSI motherboard, depending on the model and BIOS version you are running, that can change the way it looks. Now if you are referring to the look of the BIOS in easy mode vs advance mode, you have to to either find the button to switch it or the button on the keyboard for the shortcut.
HELLO BAN! You are my go to guy for MSI! I recently built my last system with an MSI Z390-A Pro with an Intel Pentium Gold Coffee Lake G5400 Duel Core 3.7Ghz Processor! 1TB M.2 SSD with 64GB DDR4 3200 Ram and a GeForce GTX 1650 Video Card! I use this system for Adobe Video Editing! Besides ticking the XMP & GAME BOOST button with FAN set to Auto, what else can I do to Overclock this system? I was told by MSI after I already bought & installed it that "this is basically a budget gaming board that cannot be manually overclocked? Any advise Would be greatly appreciated!
I am not super familiar with that motherboard, from my understanding you won't be able to do any CPU over clocking, since Intel typically reserves that for their "K" CPUs. You may be able to poke around with some RAM overclocking beyond what the XMP is, but every motherboard is a bit different, plus you would have to do some stability testing. Other than what you have already done, you may be able to do some GPU overclocking, but that would be done in your OS using something like MSI Afterburner.
I have a question. I’ve watched many videos on this. But for some reason my RPM numbers do not move around. They stay constantly at 16488RPM. And I keep adjusting the dots but it’s not doing anything.
I know this will sound kind of dumb, but did you try clicking on them? Are you able to change anything else with them, like the temperature they are suppose to run that speed at?
That I am not sure on, the fans should shut off on their own, since sleep mode more or less shuts everything down on its own, if the lights are RGB, you may have to poke around in the BIOS or install mystic lighting or what ever software is for your RGB and set it there. Otherwise, I don't know, since every motherboard is a bit different.
Hey man I got to the menu you showed but for some reason when I try to click and drag the dots for the fan curves it does not allow me. When I click on values on the right to change them, if will show that I clicked on them, but does not update them with the new values I typed. How can I fix this?
Whats the difference between cpu and system fans? The there are a boat load of fans on my case. I'm trying to figure out how to shut all those fans up.
CPU is intended for your CPU cooler, system fans is intended for your case fans. Some motherboards have an AIO pump header, which would be used for water cooling set ups. Some motherboards also support AIO pump control via the CPU fan header as well. If your fans are spinning too fast, you will need to make sure they are powered/controlled by the fan headers on the motherboard, if they are powered off say a molex or sata connector, then they will just run at full speed if they aren't tied into the motherboard in any way via the 3/4pin fan connector. Do you know if the fans are 3 pin or 4 pin and if they are in fact connected to the motherboard?
As long as the hub/controller you are using has 3/4 pin fan connector running to the motherboard, then yes it should work just fine. But you won't be able to control each individual fan though, just all the ones connected to the hub.

Do you know how to change the pump fan on the newest msi Bios? I've changed/enabled "Pump Fan1" and altered the settings and saved them but the noise is still there. Pump Fan running at 1600 currently. Thanks!!!
Are you powering the pump from the header or running the RPM sense pin to the motherboard and then powering it over sata/molex? I know some pumps have different ways of being powered and controlled via the motherboard.
Any reason why I can't change the fan percentages? When I click on it nothing happens at all, does it automatically think I dont have admin or something?
Hard to say for sure, since I don't have the PC in front of me. Are the fans 3 pin or 4 pin? If they are 3 pin, there are a lot of motherboards that won't let you adjust voltages/speeds.

That is an odd one, assuming all you did was change the fan setting, it should have closed and restarted on its own from that option. It is possible it was just a hiccup in the BIOS or you just clicked save and not restart (some BIOS have that option in them). If everything is working as intended I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Well they are just fan speeds, so worse case your fans don't spin fast enough when you need/want them to or they run to fast all the time. You can always wipe them to their defaults.
First are your fans plugged directly into the motherboard? Or are they plugged into a fan controller? Are they 3 pin or 4 pin fans? If they are plugged into the motherboard and they are 3 pin, then you won't see an RPM listed. If its plugged into a fan controller/hub, they could be getting power from a sata or molex connector coming off of the power supply.
@@Bananabrain_xmf they were plugged into a controller. I removed the controller and plugged them directly to the MB and they are working perfectly now, thank you.
I've followed this but for some reason I have to drag the dots on the graph myself not change the values. And after I do this, I go to exit my bios and it says I haven't changed anything, do you know what might be causing this? The problem I've been having is that after I launch my pc, the two fans on the top of the case just don't spin until my cpu ends up reaching 90 or so degrees (Celsius)
That is an odd one, are you making sure you are saving the changes before exiting? I suppose its possible the version of your BIOS could have a bug with that, but I haven't ran into an issue yet with the BIOS not remembering the fan settings.
First, are your fans, etc...connected to those headers on the motherboard? Second, if they are connected, are they three pin or four pin fan connectors?
Hey bro, thanks for the vid but I have 3 System fans but it shows here only "System 1" and I can't change the speed of System 1 fan. Its defailt to 0 RPM althought my fans are working just fine but they're not lighting up. I'd appreciate your response, thanks.
Does the fan have a 3 pin or 4 pin connector? If it’s 3 pin then you won’t see an RPM. Some motherboards allow you to set the fan header to be DC or PWM, although for DC (3 pin) it just gives a reference RPM based off of voltage. I am assuming for lighting up you are referring to RGB? If so, that has to be plugged into one of your RGB headers on your motherboard or an external controller. Although, I know some fans have built in RGB that gets its power from the fan header, but isn’t controlled by anything.
The fans have 4 pin connectors,I have 3 seperate fans which are connected to the controller and they work perfectly but these fans are 4pin fans which connect directly to the psu. I have a thunder punk casing and it has an led button on top but it still doesn't work, I've checked all the cables, they're connected perfectly.
@@azlanali5091 That is a bit odd. I have you tried a different fan header on your motherboard or a different fan? Just to make sure something isn't going on with one of the pins in the connector. Issues like these are kind of hard to figure out over the internet.
@@Bananabrain_xmf Okay, thanks man. I hope I get a solution to this till then I'll figure it out by my self and update here so everyone else benefits from it.
Well the only thing you should have messed with were fan speed related items, so if it wasn't doing this before you made the change, then something else got changed, whether on accident or on purpose. If you are still having issues with it, you can remove the CMOS battery from the motherboard for about five minutes and then replace it and start the PC up again, however doing this will reset the BIOS back to its default state or poke around in the BIOS and see what is causing the issue.
Any way to have a sys fan act as cpu fan2? I have 2 CPU fans but my mobo only has 1 cpu fan pin, but 3 sys fan pins. I would like to use one of the sys fans as cpu if possible. I looked around and it wasn't clear it was possible, but maybe it is just hidden/not obvious
Well you can either get a splitter that would allow you to connect two fans to a single header (assuming the total amps required to run the two fans doesn't exceed the CPU fan header on the motherboard), otherwise, you should be able to plug in the additional fan into a system fan header. Most motherboards allow you to set the fan curve to follow the CPU temperature if not, you can just adjust the fan curve to match the CPU fan header curve.
Were the fans working previously? If so, what did you change in your BIOS (if anything)? Are the fans plugged into the header on the motherboard or a fan hub/controller?
My other fans like case fans show 0 RPM on a completely new PC bought from Mifcom..I'm kinda confused cause I can't find a way to turn them on. It shows them but they are all set to 0 RPM.
Are they spinning? If so, they are more than likely 3 pin fans and only some motherboards support 3 pin fan control. The fourth pin on the 4 pin PWN fans is what tells the motherboard what RPM its spinning at.
Hi.. If I post my question here, will you respond so that I dont have to wait and waste time in case you are not active on your channel and or this post. Thank you. Kindly reply.
Now my system case fan speed going up and down constantly. WTH happened. I changed PWM to DC and it started controlling speed well before it was doing no changes with PWM only highest RPM. But after starting PC this up and down shit started. What should I do?? I am using MSI B450 Tomahawk and Deepcool Matrexx 55 mesh. 4 system fans, 3 on the front, 1 at back.
Well without the PC in front of me, all I can really suggest is looking at the values for your fan speeds at each CPU temperature. The idea is to have a fan curve that gradually increases and decreases with CPU temperature. Sometimes the default settings go from one extreme to the next very quickly.
So my 2 case fans are really loud, they came with a Lian Li case. But when I go to the bios they change, but after I exit and click OK to save, they turn back into a jet plane and are loud again. I don't know what to do. They're connected to a fan hub. My other fans I have in there are from my old case and they're really quiet. I just needed to get a new case since i had no room to put my fans. But now I want my old case back because of the loud fans
Do you have any fan control software outside of the BIOS? Also, don't blame the case for loud fans, typically the fans that come in the cases aren't that great, from a noise & airflow stand point. Also if the fans are different specs, then they may not have the same operating range, so while your other fans are running at a slower speed at a certain temperature, your new fans might be running at max RPM.
hey this vid is so good btw does increasing the fan speed to max make the pc faster and does it make it broken or no i dont mind the sound i use headphones
Increasing your fan speed won't exactly make your PC faster, unless your system is overheating badly due to lack of air flow. However the worst thing you usually will get out of it is more noise from the fans. Most people shoot for a nice cross between noise and cooling performance.
@@EthanEph I recommend checking out some other channels on UA-cam for overclocking tips and how to’s. There is more to it than just typing some numbers in the bios. I can’t type it out in chat and I currently have no plans to make a video at this time about it.
@@goku546686 Not at all, depending on your motherboard you may be able to switch those fan headers to be DC (3 pin) instead of PWM (4 pin), this can allow you to make voltage adjustments to speed up or slow down the fans, not quiet as nice as PWM (4 pin), but can still be worked with. Some motherboards will just run 3 pin fans at full speed all the time, but regardless the worse you will get out of it is additional noise.
I am not sure what exactly you mean? Unless you have the exact same motherboard and BIOS version I have in the video, yours will more than likely be different.
My bios doesn't show me all of this.... I can't change anything. FFS this is frustrating. PC is overheating, I've cleaned it thoroughly but its a tiny case, and a small cpu fan.... I want to make it run faster to keep it a little cooler as it quickly reaches 90+ Celsius degrees just idling in windows.
That is an odd one, is it MSI click BIOS 5 or something else? Also even with a small amount of air flow in the case, you shouldn't even come close to 90 degrees celsius at idle. Are you sure your cooler is on correctly and the thermal application is good?
@@Bananabrain_xmf I didn't build this PC myself... So I'm not sure... but it was running fine for months (its my young daughters PC) and then I noticed one day that the FAN was revving up every few seconds. So I took it apart enough to get at the CPU fan and cleaned all the dust out, which seemed to help at first... but within 10 - 15 min. it was doing it again. I'll never buy a PC with a mini ATX case again... what a pain in the ass to get into. ugh. I thought I might be able to set the fan speed a little higher via the BIOS to help keep the heat down so she could at least use the PC without risk of destroying the CPU... but the BIOS won't let me change it.
Well this question isn't really relevant to this video, but its possible your RAM doesn't support any additional OC profiles, what RAM are you using? Unless you have the exact same model motherboard I am using in this video, it may not support xmp either.
@@innocentjaved17 From what I can tell that RAM should work up to its rated speed, it is possible your motherboard doesn't support that speed or XMP, what speed is it currently running at and do you know exactly what motherboard you are using?
If it is having that sort of issue you may have a different problem than fan speeds. Like thermal paste application for example. Unless your case is completely sealed and you have zero airflow, your CPU won't stay at thermal throttle temps all the time, if it has a proper thermal paste application and the cooler is mounted properly of course.
Does the fan spin when the pc is powered up? Is it a 4 pin or 3 pin fan? Make sure you have the correct fan type selected, if your motherboard supports it. PWM for 4 pin and DC for 3 pin. Make sure it is plugged in correctly into the motherboard as well. It is also possible that the values shown for your fan are to low for your fans operating speed. I know some fans don’t operate properly below a certain voltage/percentage, if that is the case, you may need to bump the speed of the fan/temperature at which the fan turns on or speeds up. Unfortunately I am not an expert when it comes to this sort of thing, so I can only pass on the bit of information I have. Also depending on what motherboard you have, make sure it’s plugged into the correct fan header. I know some motherboards have dedicated 3 pin and 4 pin fan headers. If your motherboard has a smart fan option, you can try selecting that and it should be able to figure out the minimum and maximum rpm range of your fan.
My 3 front fans (pre installed w my cooler master m520 case) stopped working for some reason and I went to the BIOS like that and they said 0 rpm. I don't really know how to phrase this but how do I get them to spin?
There's no need to use two points to draw a horizontal line, you're wasting one point that way. Just start the first one at 0% and the fans will be off for all the values below that temp.
Kind of depends on how you want you fan curve set up, this video was more of how to use it rather than what you should do. Fan speeds are kind up to how much air you want moving at a certain temperature. Like my main PC I run them basically at their lowest speed until the CPU temp hits 50c then the speed slowly climbs until it hits my 80c 100% fan speed setting. However, the fans rarely spin up past their lowest setting with most of the games I play on it. I prefer constant air flow at low quiet speeds and have a slow speed step up to its max speed, others like it quiet until the PC is basically melting. I also have a friend who wanted his fan curves basically full speed all the time, when I was building it for him.
Hi, I have 5 arctic fans connected to a arctic fan hub and when I’m in bios the fan speed is at 0rpm except from the cpu speed which is 800-950 which is something but why is the other one 0rpm?
@@Bananabrain_xmf the fan hub connector to the motherboard is 4 pin if I’m not mistaken. The fans are 3 pin. I’ve disconnected 2 of the fans since my pc gets too cold and makes me lag sometimes.

Hey bro, thanks for the vid but I have 3 System fans but it shows here only "System 1" and I can't change the speed of System 1 fan. Its defailt to 0 RPM althought my fans are working just fine but they're not lighting up. I'd appreciate your response, thanks.
Does the fan have a 3 pin or 4 pin connector? If it’s 3 pin then you won’t see an RPM. Some motherboards allow you to set the fan header to be DC or PWM, although for DC (3 pin) it just gives a reference RPM based off of voltage.
I am assuming for lighting up you are referring to RGB? If so, that has to be plugged into one of your RGB headers on your motherboard or an external controller. Although, I know some fans have built in RGB that gets its power from the fan header, but isn’t controlled by anything.
The fans have 4 pin connectors,I have 3 seperate fans which are connected to the controller and they work perfectly but these fans are 4pin fans which connect directly to the psu. I have a thunder punk casing and it has an led button on top but it still doesn't work, I've checked all the cables, they're connected perfectly.
@@azlanali5091 That is a bit odd. I have you tried a different fan header on your motherboard or a different fan? Just to make sure something isn't going on with one of the pins in the connector.
Issues like these are kind of hard to figure out over the internet.
@@Bananabrain_xmf Okay, thanks man. I hope I get a solution to this till then I'll figure it out by my self and update here so everyone else benefits from it.
So when we click the x and save at the end. The computer reboots bit when it turns back on, we still have this screen. It won't go away🤷🏻♀️
Well the only thing you should have messed with were fan speed related items, so if it wasn't doing this before you made the change, then something else got changed, whether on accident or on purpose.
If you are still having issues with it, you can remove the CMOS battery from the motherboard for about five minutes and then replace it and start the PC up again, however doing this will reset the BIOS back to its default state or poke around in the BIOS and see what is causing the issue.
Any way to have a sys fan act as cpu fan2? I have 2 CPU fans but my mobo only has 1 cpu fan pin, but 3 sys fan pins. I would like to use one of the sys fans as cpu if possible. I looked around and it wasn't clear it was possible, but maybe it is just hidden/not obvious
Well you can either get a splitter that would allow you to connect two fans to a single header (assuming the total amps required to run the two fans doesn't exceed the CPU fan header on the motherboard), otherwise, you should be able to plug in the additional fan into a system fan header. Most motherboards allow you to set the fan curve to follow the CPU temperature if not, you can just adjust the fan curve to match the CPU fan header curve.
What is the normal fan speed
There isn't really a normal, since all fans can operate at different speeds. Most people just pick a speed that is quiet and provides decent air flow.
Bro how do u add more dots
As far as I am aware, the amount shown is all you get to work with. There may be some motherboards that allow additional points.
@@Bananabrain_xmf thanks for the response, that sucks, great video tho
Bro somehow I have turned off system 1 fans, I don't know how to turn on plz help
Were the fans working previously? If so, what did you change in your BIOS (if anything)? Are the fans plugged into the header on the motherboard or a fan hub/controller?
My other fans like case fans show 0 RPM on a completely new PC bought from Mifcom..I'm kinda confused cause I can't find a way to turn them on. It shows them but they are all set to 0 RPM.
Are they spinning? If so, they are more than likely 3 pin fans and only some motherboards support 3 pin fan control. The fourth pin on the 4 pin PWN fans is what tells the motherboard what RPM its spinning at.
Is it possible to control your GPU fans with this? I only saw my CPU fan and 2 other fans.
Unfortunately, no. You would have to download additional software in your operating system to allow you to control the fans.
Hi.. If I post my question here, will you respond so that I dont have to wait and waste time in case you are not active on your channel and or this post. Thank you. Kindly reply.
What is your question?
Now my system case fan speed going up and down constantly. WTH happened. I changed PWM to DC and it started controlling speed well before it was doing no changes with PWM only highest RPM. But after starting PC this up and down shit started. What should I do?? I am using MSI B450 Tomahawk and Deepcool Matrexx 55 mesh. 4 system fans, 3 on the front, 1 at back.
Well without the PC in front of me, all I can really suggest is looking at the values for your fan speeds at each CPU temperature.
The idea is to have a fan curve that gradually increases and decreases with CPU temperature. Sometimes the default settings go from one extreme to the next very quickly.
So my 2 case fans are really loud, they came with a Lian Li case. But when I go to the bios they change, but after I exit and click OK to save, they turn back into a jet plane and are loud again. I don't know what to do.
They're connected to a fan hub. My other fans I have in there are from my old case and they're really quiet. I just needed to get a new case since i had no room to put my fans. But now I want my old case back because of the loud fans
Do you have any fan control software outside of the BIOS? Also, don't blame the case for loud fans, typically the fans that come in the cases aren't that great, from a noise & airflow stand point.
Also if the fans are different specs, then they may not have the same operating range, so while your other fans are running at a slower speed at a certain temperature, your new fans might be running at max RPM.
hey this vid is so good btw does increasing the fan speed to max make the pc faster and does it make it broken or no i dont mind the sound i use headphones
Increasing your fan speed won't exactly make your PC faster, unless your system is overheating badly due to lack of air flow. However the worst thing you usually will get out of it is more noise from the fans. Most people shoot for a nice cross between noise and cooling performance.
Ok and what is neccesary to overclock and how to do it in bios
@@EthanEph I recommend checking out some other channels on UA-cam for overclocking tips and how to’s. There is more to it than just typing some numbers in the bios. I can’t type it out in chat and I currently have no plans to make a video at this time about it.
Alright thanks man
Ok so what happens when rpm shows 0 for everything besides the cpu fan
Usually that means the fans that are connected to those headers are 3 pin and not 4 pin.
@@Bananabrain_xmf is that a bad thing? I'm a little new to all this 😅 learning as I go
@@goku546686 Not at all, depending on your motherboard you may be able to switch those fan headers to be DC (3 pin) instead of PWM (4 pin), this can allow you to make voltage adjustments to speed up or slow down the fans, not quiet as nice as PWM (4 pin), but can still be worked with. Some motherboards will just run 3 pin fans at full speed all the time, but regardless the worse you will get out of it is additional noise.
@@Bananabrain_xmf mines the msi b550m pro-vdh wifi. Changing to DC didn't seem to do anything
So my pc doesn’t show auto speed for cpu idk why
That I am not sure on, without the PC in front of me I can't say for sure. Its possible that your motherboard doesn't support that feature.
its not letting me change the speed
Are your fans plugged into the motherboard fan header(s)? Are they three pin or four pin connectors?
@@Bananabrain_xmf nvm i fixed it
how do i get my bios to look like that
I am not sure what exactly you mean? Unless you have the exact same motherboard and BIOS version I have in the video, yours will more than likely be different.
@@Bananabrain_xmf nvm i found out i have to keep my bios the way it is cause if i downgrade my cpu will be unsuported but thx for actually replying
@@theheavy4813 interesting, I think that is a new one for me. But glad you got it worked out!
My bios doesn't show me all of this.... I can't change anything. FFS this is frustrating. PC is overheating, I've cleaned it thoroughly but its a tiny case, and a small cpu fan.... I want to make it run faster to keep it a little cooler as it quickly reaches 90+ Celsius degrees just idling in windows.
That is an odd one, is it MSI click BIOS 5 or something else? Also even with a small amount of air flow in the case, you shouldn't even come close to 90 degrees celsius at idle. Are you sure your cooler is on correctly and the thermal application is good?
@@Bananabrain_xmf I didn't build this PC myself... So I'm not sure... but it was running fine for months (its my young daughters PC) and then I noticed one day that the FAN was revving up every few seconds. So I took it apart enough to get at the CPU fan and cleaned all the dust out, which seemed to help at first... but within 10 - 15 min. it was doing it again.
I'll never buy a PC with a mini ATX case again... what a pain in the ass to get into. ugh.
I thought I might be able to set the fan speed a little higher via the BIOS to help keep the heat down so she could at least use the PC without risk of destroying the CPU... but the BIOS won't let me change it.
My MSI click bios looks completely different tf??
There are going to be variations in the layout of the motherboard BIOS. Is this a prebuilt computer/laptop or something you put together?
Bro i have b450m mobo same but xmp optin not enabled option please guide me
Well this question isn't really relevant to this video, but its possible your RAM doesn't support any additional OC profiles, what RAM are you using? Unless you have the exact same model motherboard I am using in this video, it may not support xmp either.

Getting into this today my cpu stays overheating
If it is having that sort of issue you may have a different problem than fan speeds. Like thermal paste application for example.
Unless your case is completely sealed and you have zero airflow, your CPU won't stay at thermal throttle temps all the time, if it has a proper thermal paste application and the cooler is mounted properly of course.
@@Bananabrain_xmf thanks
i have same cpu and motherboard
Its a pretty solid combo.
my system 1 RPM is in 0 why? i cant change the RPM of my fans :(
Does the fan spin when the pc is powered up? Is it a 4 pin or 3 pin fan? Make sure you have the correct fan type selected, if your motherboard supports it. PWM for 4 pin and DC for 3 pin. Make sure it is plugged in correctly into the motherboard as well.
It is also possible that the values shown for your fan are to low for your fans operating speed. I know some fans don’t operate properly below a certain voltage/percentage, if that is the case, you may need to bump the speed of the fan/temperature at which the fan turns on or speeds up. Unfortunately I am not an expert when it comes to this sort of thing, so I can only pass on the bit of information I have.
Also depending on what motherboard you have, make sure it’s plugged into the correct fan header. I know some motherboards have dedicated 3 pin and 4 pin fan headers. If your motherboard has a smart fan option, you can try selecting that and it should be able to figure out the minimum and maximum rpm range of your fan.
@@Bananabrain_xmf is a 4 pin fan but the motherboard says it is disconected
@@empanada5005 do you have another fan header you can try that fan on or possibly an additional fan to try? Is this a known working fan?
My 3 front fans (pre installed w my cooler master m520 case) stopped working for some reason and I went to the BIOS like that and they said 0 rpm.
I don't really know how to phrase this but how do I get them to spin?
Have you tried plugging them into a different fan header or tried a different fan? This will help rule out a dead fan header or fan.
@@Bananabrain_xmf I got a new mobo the other day and they were working fine for a day or two, but now they aren't
There's no need to use two points to draw a horizontal line, you're wasting one point that way. Just start the first one at 0% and the fans will be off for all the values below that temp.
Kind of depends on how you want you fan curve set up, this video was more of how to use it rather than what you should do. Fan speeds are kind up to how much air you want moving at a certain temperature. Like my main PC I run them basically at their lowest speed until the CPU temp hits 50c then the speed slowly climbs until it hits my 80c 100% fan speed setting. However, the fans rarely spin up past their lowest setting with most of the games I play on it. I prefer constant air flow at low quiet speeds and have a slow speed step up to its max speed, others like it quiet until the PC is basically melting. I also have a friend who wanted his fan curves basically full speed all the time, when I was building it for him.
I cant pls help in 2016 version
Does your board support adjustable fan speeds? Some of them only support 4 pin PWM and not 3 pin DC fans.
@@Bananabrain_xmf I can in gaming center i wanna in bios bc sometimes not working restart needed
@@MOFYILD In your BIOS do you have a smart fan control option or a choice to switch between PWM or DC?

Hi, I have 5 arctic fans connected to a arctic fan hub and when I’m in bios the fan speed is at 0rpm except from the cpu speed which is 800-950 which is something but why is the other one 0rpm?
My first thought would be are the fans 3pin or 4 pin? If they are 3 pin, then there isn't a pin to give the motherboard an RPM signal.
@@Bananabrain_xmf the fan hub connector to the motherboard is 4 pin if I’m not mistaken. The fans are 3 pin. I’ve disconnected 2 of the fans since my pc gets too cold and makes me lag sometimes. Do you think there are any fan hubs that can give signal to the motherboard or do I need to have 4 pin fans?
Thanks
No problem!
