Fan Speed Reset MSI Afterburner

[sn3316712a302ab]

Hi,

Every time I play Rainbow Six Siege, my fan speed goes to 40 and will stay stuck there till I shut down the game. I tried to increase it but it won't let me until I have closed the game. Is there a way to fix this? My temps are going too high for no reason.

are you using MSI Center as well? is Afterburner shut down when you play games? is it with every game or rainbow six siege only?
make sure GPU driver and Afterburner are both up to date.

Hi, yes I do have MSI center running as well, after burner does not shut down when I play games. It does restart when I close siege, and this problem only happens with siege.

it seems like Rainbow Six Siege has compatibility issues with Afterburner, some said re-installing the GPU driver with DDU solved their issue. can you give it a try?

Well, that was short lived. I have the same problem now. Don't want to keep uninstalling my drivers
