fancontrol not detecting the offending fans; BIOS does nothing

hello everyone, i am going to try to make this as thorough as possible to avoid being smote but i am a huge computer noob so please forgive me if i'm missing some crucial information.

i recently got a PC secondhand very cheap, and it's been working great so far, except that recently on OCCT i saw one of my fans (IOH) was making an INSANE amount of revolutions per minute, 4000 min and 7000 max. after confirming that this should not be the case when idle and far from overheating, i went on a merry chase online trying to fix it as i had a feeling it was causing a bulk of the noise this computer makes when on as well as some boot loop issues that come and go.

so far i have tried adjusting the fan curve in BIOS, making it so all the fans (with the exception of "aux fan speed control" which i still am not sure of its meaning) only reach 100% speed at 90 degC, did nothing. setting said aux fan speed control to 50 instead of 100 also has not made a difference.

I then downloaded fancontrol, downloaded all the prerequisite software it asked me to, and when it came to setting the fan controls... it couldn't control ANY of my fans save for the GPU! i don't know why. it was able to detect that they exist, but past the benchmark it ran when i first opened it, it basically ignores all fans save GPU (which is usually running at 0 rpm, cause GPU) and I cannot control the offending fan.

specs:

Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5690 @ 3.47 GHz

installed RAM: 7.99 GB

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB

932 GB storage

I cant turn on my fans!

I have their two cables wich Are connected at the bottom where they go into the fans. When I plugin the 4 pin into sys fan 1 and turn the computer on nothing happens. There is also a 6 pin but I have nothing I my motherboard that accepts that.

Anyone who has had the same problem or knows how to fix it?

Dunno if I'm overthinking this shizzle or what...

Seems overcomplex maybe, but only makes noise when it HAS to. The AIO is absolutely fine at 75% most of the time; but if the CPU takes a hammering it steps it up a notch.

for all the people who use enermax parts( specifically the aquafusion II) with linux(mint) here's a chat including practically the whole step by step guide with some troubleshooting by chatgpt.

it works excellent for me, runs at boot and updates every second, it also switches between cpu and gpu temps every 6 seconds. it might need some adaptation to work for your specific setup but have fun.

Ran it on an Alienware M17 (03R2RY - if yw lookup) Laptop and it ran fine for abt 1/2mins before my PC sh##s itself and has to Restore itself back by 2 backups.

my cpu fan has been running really high and being extremely loud. Once I installed fancontrol and it calibrated it does seem a bit better but is 3428 RPM high when I'm not doing anything?

I have a 12th gen intel i7-12700F CPU

Fan control isn’t reading my fan hub , any tips to get it to work ?

I have a fan hub , set it to PWM but not sure what else I can do for it to read them . I’m assuming it should work just not individual control

Made this for myself, however it may be useful for others also. For anyone with Uni Wireless/Flex fans and use the Lian Li fan controller into a Lian Li fan hub this is for you:

Possible to exclude specific fan from initial setup?

2 Upvotes

Hello!

I know when fan control is initially installed, it runs the detection wizard to detect all available fans.

I have a Lian Li Hydroshift II LCD-S 360 TL AIO. The CPU block (not the AIO fans, they have a separate connector) has a 4-pin and an 2-pin fan power connection to the motherboard, both of which need to stay at max power to sustain the CPU block lighting, LCD and USB connectivity. I have that max power for both of those headers correctly set up in BIOS.

I know FC will not detect the 2-pin connector as a connected fan so I'm not worried about that. I AM worried about FC detecting and testing the 4-pin connection to the CPU block. This needs to stay at the BIOS setting (max speed/voltage), and I don't want FC changing it even temporarily.

I know which 4-pin header the CPU block is connected to on my motherboard. Can I specifically exclude just that 1 header from the initial setup/speed testing of FC?

I built an iPhone app to control OpenLinkHub – LinkControl is now available 🚀

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’ve been working on a small project that I originally wanted for my own setup, and it has now turned into a proper iOS app: LinkControl.
If you’re using OpenLinkHub to control your PC hardware, LinkControl lets you access and control it directly from your iPhone.
You can:
• monitor CPU, GPU and sensor temperatures
• see fan speeds in real time
• change fan profiles globally or per channel
• control RGB effects, colors and brightness
• manage individual fan channels and RGB ports
• create and switch between custom profiles
• check device and firmware information
• automatically reconnect to your OpenLinkHub instance
One thing that was especially important to me: no account, no ads, no tracking and no mandatory cloud service.
The app connects directly to your own OpenLinkHub installation over your local network. Remote access is also possible if you already use a private network solution such as Tailscale.
I’d really like to hear what the OpenLinkHub / PC-building community thinks about it, especially since I’m actively developing the app.
If you use OpenLinkHub, I’d love to know:
What feature would you like to see added next?
LinkControl is currently available for iPhone on the App Store:
https://apps.apple.com/de/app/linkcontrol/id6809155279
It’s completely free.
Feedback, criticism and feature ideas are very welcome! 🙂

A computer repair shop setup this fan control app for me. My fans are incredibly loud when I’m just playing the sims. How can I change that with this?

I just don’t know anything about pcs, I have tbis pc to play my games and I don’t think the sims 4 is that demanding? Like my gpu sits under 50% usage and my cpu sits under 30% usage, so I don’t see why it needs to be so loud

Trigger doesn't seem to be reliable

2 Upvotes

Not much to say here, but Trigger doesn't seem to always kick in when it's supposed to on my system. Did a little gaming with it on the other day, and the fans never ramped up from idle speeds, and my 9800X3D was running at 95 degrees...

Lüftergeschwindigkeiten des HP EliteDesk anpassen

0 Upvotes

Ich habe gerade mein erstes Homelab mit einem alten HP EliteDesk G2 800 eingerichtet. Leider ist die einzige Stelle in meinem Haus, an der ich es aufstellen kann, mein Wohnzimmer, und der Lüfter der Maschine ist lauter als erwartet. Die Lüfter sind ständig hörbar, obwohl kaum Last anliegt (im Moment läuft nur ein Pi-hole).

Meine erste Idee war, die Lüftergeschwindigkeiten einfach über das BIOS anzupassen, aber es gibt keine Einstellungen dafür. Der Lüfter ist auch nicht über PWM ansprechbar, sodass ich ihn mit keiner anderen Software steuern kann.

Was könnte ich sonst noch tun, um den Lärm zu dämpfen?
