Of your not willing to try and learn, and take some initiative, then sell your PC and buy a Mac.

We need to check the softwareside fo things, and I solved it already so no point.

The main thing is that speedfan messed things up for my fan controller even after I uninstalled it, the 2-3rd time I did, it went back to normal.

Hi, so when my power was cut off (black out) the ups closed as well and my pc closed as well, after I did one restart or two the fans of my pc started to be very loud and fast, I had it on auto which is usually on a low profile cooling because the heat sinks are good and cool the system well. Now it is loud and I tried switching to non-auto options in bios as well and coming back to auto.

What can I do to fix this?

Your BIOS should have an option that's called something like "Load Optimized Defaults". Use that option, restart and see if your fans are still loud.

 

If not, try clearing CMOS and tweaking the fan profile again.

 

And if all else fails, download speedfan and control your fans with software.

Speedfan is complicated for me, I dont know which options to press.

I want to actually make my cpu run cool also and quiet as much as possible when playing games and stuff.

Hm. Try the BIOS stuff.

 

Speedfan is hard to set up but once you've done it, it will feel like child's play. The manual has a step-by-step guide that's not the easiest to read, but will set you up with all you need to know to use the program on any computer.

Thanks, even though I tried a complete reset of my system's devices/external components (monitor, speakers etc) and the bios reset and also tried to install the latest bios, nothing worked.

 

ps: please check my system so you know which temps it should operate etc, I currently have it and is very loud, it sounds like its on high option while I have it selected on auto by default. I dont want it to throttle also.

Make sure your fans are connected to the motherboard and not the power supply? Sometimes it's easy to miss something obvious while troubleshooting, I know I'm guilty of such a thing. What fans / motherboard models are there?

I have all the info I know on my profile, and no, everything is intact I didnt touch anything since I dont know how. OEM installation, and service has seen the PC as well, it is supposed to be fine.

Doesn't hurt to see what the fans are connected to, the more info the higher the likelihood of finding out WTF

Well from the looks of it it seems like being connected to the appropriate connectors.

Hmm. Since they're connected to the motherboard it's hard to say what. If it bothers you, I'd try the speedfan route.

Perhaps. But configurations don't just change like that. It's a strange happening

 

Tell you what. Maybe you can contact Dell? Supposedly one of the advantages of OEM computers is that they provide support themselves.

Do you have a piece of software that can report fan speeds? The ones on HWMonitor only speak of the GTX 980.

Actually, the fan speeds should show up in HWMonitor. Under the motherboard category.

If you can't see the motherboard bit, that might mean that the power outage blew the sensors or some other chip. Such a damage is repairable, but in that case you'd best contact Dell.

Well, many, why?

Hdd, cpu, gpu, psu.

I dont know how many there are since I cant unscrew the front rear.

But I guess you can know if some fans do make noise fromt he readings

Because speedfan is reporting speeds on 5 fans (not the PSU one, that one doesn't connect to the motherboard) and one of them says 52429 RPM which is quite improbable
