You usually can't control fan speed from the OS can you? Besides CPU and GPU I'm pretty sure it's automatic?

 

If you can, I've heard good things about SpeedFan

 

It's automatic, I just want software to where I can manually set it.

I have MSI Afterburner.  Didn't know there was a built in fan control though. I'll give it a look.

MSI Afterburner only controls GPU fans.

Does it really? The PC I am using is loud with the 1 case fan I have.

I've been using it for years, and never found any option to control other fans.

This is what happens when I change the fan speed to 60%. Bear in mind that my 970 is the card that's selected. My second GPU(560 Ti) remains unaffected

Spoiler

And back to 40%:

I'm not sure that you'll even be able to control the fan(s). What laptop are you using?

Try using Alienware Command Center:

Bear in mind that this is a direct download link if you don't already have it installed: http://downloads.dell.com/FOLDER03882773M/6/App_DT_AWCC4.7.7.0_W10_Setup_8D5GP_ZPE.exe

I know. But Alienware is over priced. You can get a desktop that easily runs 4K for a Alienware laptop.

Let's stick to figuring this out, and not arguing about Alienware.
