Speedfan?

Ba_Ba · 07-07-2005, 05:28 PM

I downloaded speedfan 4.24, and I am wondering if it is possible to limit your fans' speed using speedfan?

It all depends on your motherboard.

how do i find out the what kind of motherboard i have?

Well, the easiest thing to do, see if you have little up and down arrows near the fan speed block when you first open speedfan

If they aren't there, your mobo doesn't support it. That or speedfan has yet to develop support for your system.

yes I do! how do I maually adjust the fan speed now?

Click the arrows

Or if it goes back to some other setting, the auto setting is enabled. Just look around the config menus. I think it's one of hte last tabs where you can deselect this option.

plus it helps to have the fans plugged into your motherboard and not directly into the power supply

as i stupidly forgot

ok, i found the tab...just wondering how low can I limit the fans' rpm ? I mean how high can the temp go before something bad happens?
