Case fan speed curve?

[Makmarian]

Can I create a fan speed curve to my case fans, just like in MSI Afterburner with the GPU? The fans are connected to the motherboard, not the PSU. The case I have is: Corsair Obsidian 750D. Here are a screenshot of SpeedFan: http://i.imgur.com/C07tMup.jpg

If the fans are 4-pin fans, or if you have a expensive fan controller, then yes

Your case doesn't matter, your motherboard will always be where you go for fan control. MSI provides fan speed control from either your BIOS or from command center, which you can download and install from here.

Doesn't have to be 4-pin, that just determines if it uses PWM.

Isnt the only way to control 3-pin fans to change the voltage? And i dont know any motherboards that can do that

Yep. You have to check on google for each particular model, it varies whether they offer fan control on 3-pin headers.

Thx, that worked, but can I make a curve that makes the fans go faster when my GPU is getting hotter?

Yes, you can with SpeedFan by attaching fans to the GPU temp.

Yes it is. But most modern (last 3-4gens) mobos can control fans via DC. Its not as accurate and fans can't go as slowly, but you still can do it.

didnt know that, now i might have to unplugg my 3 pin fans from my trash fan controller to my motherboard just to see if it works

You will still need mobo software or Speedfan to do actual controlling. Some newer BIOS also do. But its same with PWM. You need to tell mobo that fans need controlling.

 

Newer board, better the support.

yeah, i believe my mobo has bios support for 3 pin fan curves if it supports 3 pin fan controling, because there is a built in fan programing program in my bios and my 4 pin fan curve i configured in the bios works great
