Smart Fan BIOS Options. I am lost for the meanings of options. Please help me.
Motherboard is GIGABYTE 'GA-EP45-UD3P' REV 1.0
OS is Windows 7 / 64-BIT This the information I could gather from the BIOS's Fan Speed controls. CPU Smart FAN control AUTO CPU Fan Mode AUTO SMART-FAN OPTIONS AUTO -CPU SMART FAN is controlled by BIOS. DISABLED --CPU FAN IS always running at highest SPEED! ENABLED --CPU FAN SPEED IS NOT FIXED AND VARIED ACCORDING TO CPU TEMPERATURE. CPU FAN MODE Options AUTO --no descriptions for setting VOLTAGE --no descriptions for setting PWM --no descriptions for setting Which setting, for both options, are appropriate to be able to increase or descrease the RPM of the Fan speed from within Windows? My HSF FAN is average set to 1,500 RPM and it is of the most rare circumstance that it goes beyond 1500. I want to be able to set it 500 RPM higher but be able to do it within GUI Windows. So, which settings should I choose in the BIOS? Then, what software, if any, do I need installed to be able to adjust the FAN Speed? Thanks for helping and reading my post.. |

(((((Attempt #2 Since 10-26)))))) Try this. Smart Fan Options - Disabled CPU Fan Mode - this depends on fan type. For a retail 4 pin Intel fan, it should be PWM. For an aftermarket 3 pin fan, it should be VOLTAGE mode. Then, try Speedfan from almico.com . http://www.almico.com/sfdownload.php http://www.almico.com/speedfan439.exe (the speedfan download) You can control the fans with Speedfan. Disabling the control in the BIOS, means less chance for interference. It might in fact work, that leaving it enabled in the BIOS, still allows Speedfan to override it. But if you have problems, you can disable the setting in the BIOS, to give Speedfan more of a chance to adjust it. Best guess, Paul |
