PWM Fan custom fan curve?

[tikithorsen]

Speedfan and is just bad; it either sets the fan to 0RPM or 2000RPM (software control, automatic fan speeds both enabled) and does not changes the speed according to the temperatures I configured.

Gigabyte's Easytune6 is even worse; it messes with my overclock, it takes ages to load and just bad in general. The only good thing is that I can actually make a custom fan curve for my CPU fan (just like you can on MSI Afterburner for the GPU Fan).

Is there any alternative the mentioned programs to control my CPU Fan in this very hot days?

In these summer days in the southern hemisphere, you may consider not controlling the CPU fan and have it run on maximum to get the most out of your overclock.
I run mine on maximum year around.

I am posting to see if anyone else is controlling the speed of the speed of their CPU fan. I could see that maybe in the old days of super-loud Delta fans but now the large fans just run at max and are not as noisy and you really do need all they've got to deal with the heat modern CPUs put out.

I would do that except for the fact that I don't like to be to that loud when I'm just web browsing or sorting music. The max speed that my ears like is 1500RPM.
I actually did searched for alternatives to the said programs to no success, I'm honestly surprised there is no program that can do it.

Post in cooling section of the forums here:

then post back here if they tell you an alternative and you test it to work better.
There are fans with manual 3 speed switches, they are case fans though.

What is the model of your CPU fan, I'm not sure if it's in your sig?

Can I ask a mod to directly move this thread to the cooling forum?

The stock fan of the 212; The blademaster.

You should private message a mod directly.
Is this the fan that is too loud: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103069
I just put two similar 2000 RPMs in the front of my case replacing manual switch 3-speed fans that I always had on the highest setting year round.
If things don't work out see if you can maybe get a 3-speed manual switch fan?
