I usually prefer to bump similar threads, but that has been made clear that that shouldn't be done here.
My current graphics card is the MSI Radeon RX 6500 XT 4GB.
Although I don't think I will need to change things in the Bios, for information, my motherboard is the Gigabyte B550M .
This card compared to my previous EVGA GTX1650 does run cooler, but it is so much louder. When running my old card on around 30%, it was not audible. The RX6500 certainly is.
What I'm wanting is a program for windows 10 that allows you to control the RPM of the fan to well below 30%. I know what this card can run at as i also have Ubuntu and use a program called corectrl which allowed me to turn the rpm right down to the minimum speed the fan would allow. It will go down to 9% and then anything lower would result in stop-start bursts. But anything below 15% is quiet enough for me not to really notice.
The issue I'm faced with is that many programs in windows that I have tried have really annoying limits on things.
AMD radeon software has a zero RPM option that if you want to use it, the temperature it cuts off at is fixed at 50%. This is irritating as the fan speed is loud even at the lowest it can go (around 30%) and on games where the temperature is around 50, it cuts out, then when it powers back on, it sounds like an engine starting and sort of revs for a bit before going back down to the required RPM, then of course soon goes off again - and so on repeatedly. I want to avoid this by having it running all the time. The only other option on this program is to disable the 0 rpm, which then results in the GPU fans being on 30% all the time which is louder than my other PC fans which i spent a lot of money on to make sure they were quiet models.
I tried MSI afterburner, but it is clear that that cannot go below 30% eather. The difference in volume is just too large between 30% and off that I really need a program that allows it to rotate at a much lower RPM.
I also tried a program named Argus Monitor, and I was aware that it was a program you need to pay for but I thought I may as well test the trial version. It looks pretty advanced, but I couldn't get it to work.
Surely there must be a way in windows to control the fans more than I have managed? One of the main reasons I switched to windows was so that it could support more games and have more advanced overclocking programs - but the one and only thing I want to do with these is set a custom fan curve similar to what is in the screenshot attatched. I can't find a program in windows that lets me do this yet.
Any advice?
