Afterburner is only using one fan of my EVGA 1070 FTW2?

[Mark Kaine]

is there any way to fix this? 

 

just noticed, and forgot to check earlier, but I was wondering already why temps are quite a bit higher than when I'm using precision x1... 

 

 

so is there a setting in Afterburner to actually use both of my EVGA GPU's fans or am I stuck using EVGA precision for custom fan curves?

Fan might be broken

works with precision x1 tho, so I doubt that? 

[Mark Kaine]

bumb! any ideas, please! 

 

 

I kinda like precision but it's using minimum 2% cpu that's not funny! Afterburner basically uses 0...

 

 

Also just confirmed again, both fans are working fine when I use EVGA PRECISION X1... 

 

So I'm just wondering if anyone ever got a EVGA "asynchronous dual fan" gpu to work properly with MSI Afterburner? 

 

because it really doesn't look like it'd work...

So my conclusion is, in lieu of an actual solution, that you simply cannot control evga icx cards with MSI Afterburner, IF you want both fans to spin. 

 

A serious drawback with EVGA apparently, and all just because they thought "asynchronous fan speeds" would be a good idea (which it isn't, cards runs hotter when one fan is slower, apparently! And also asynchronous fans are obviously louder than when they are synced up, something EVGA should have put their efforts into instead imho)
