  1. Thanks, I'll give that a try when I get the chance. otherwise it looks like I'll need a fan controller.
  2. I couldn't find a way to change the fan control method to PWM, is would assume it's done automatically but perhaps not... i will try Speedfan, I did try to use FanXpert 2 but it's a POS so I have it a miss...
  3. Hello all! I recently installed a corsair h75 AIO water cooler and the two fans it came with. Only one issue, my Asus motherboard BIOS wants to protect me from myself (a bit late for that) and limits the duty cycle to 40% minimum for all the chassis fan headers. I think my CPU fan header might have a lower manual duty cycle of around 20% but I'd rather not screw with that because i'd prefer to keep my CPU fan to auto adjusts speed based on core temps. Anyway, preface out of the way, the thing I wanted to ask you lovely ladies and gentlemen of the LTT forum is: What can I do to limit the rpm of my fans... Silly question I know, but besides forking out ~$50 for a PWM fan controller, maybe there are some other things that could be done? I'm not adverse to installing some ghetto resistor in line to the fans considering I have already voided the warranty on just about everything in my case (the aforementioned h75 was for my GPU after all...). But I'm pretty sure the old "voltage divider" resistor trick doesn't work with PWM fans anyways... So, got any ideas? I'd rather not spend money tbh as it's a bit hard to come by right now. And yes, before anyone comments that this thread has already been made a million times, I'm doing it because I know how much you all LOVE answering questions that have already been asked before
  4. Sure, I will probably go for the corsair one as my local store only has the G1 EVGA psu's. Appreciate the help
  5. Thanks, I'll try that. Are there any inherent risks in disabling that? I would imagine it would still restart if a surge happened.
  6. Hello! I have had this computer for about 3 years now and recently I have been having a few issues with my PSU. In some programs after a period of time the computer will completely restart saying that the "ASUS anti-surge has been triggered". I know some people have had this problem and have solved it by disabling the anti-surge on their BIOS. My question is should I turn off the anti-surge to test if it is just false positives or should I just replace my PSU? Are their any risks associated with disabling the feature like blowing fuses etc? Specs: PSU - Corsair VS 650 CPU - i5-4570 GPU - ASUS Gtx 970 Turbo I don't run any overclocks either. Thanks for the help!
