Does MSI recommend manual adjusting of GPU fan speed using Riva Tuner?

My temp goes to 90c whe laying CoD4. Is it safe to adjust the fan speed with Riva Tuner? Bec. i think this is pretty hot. Or is it?

Yes its safe
"Bec. i think this is pretty hot. Or is it?"
No GPU usually is running hot, its normal. If you don't have troubles ignore the temp.

    MSI GT70 2PC-1044US - HDMI / GPU / FAN issues
    I am having trouble with my HDMI port on a brand new MSI GT70 2PC-1044US . Whenever I plug my HDMI cable from my notebook to the TV, after a few minutes (5 - 20 minutes), my fan will start reving at around 5k RPMs and sounds like a jet engine. When this happens, according to MSI Dragon Gaming Center tool/monitor, the GPU temp reading hits 255 degrees Celsius, which is clearly a glitch. I used another monitor, msi afterburner, and when this HDMI problem happens, this tool reads a normal 40 degrees Celsius.
    Here are the things I have tried so far but the problem keeps reoccurring:
    1. Called MSI tech support, sent me the link to the newest BIOS and updated it
    2. Called MSI tech support again, claimed the HDMI is controlled by the intel graphic controller, and they recommended that i update intel drivers (every software tool on my notebook says it's the NVIDIA GPU that controls the HDMI port /shrug???), so i did this as well.
    3. Called MSI teck support again, they suggested I send the notebook back to MSI so they could take a look at the hardware. I did not do this because I did not trust the tech guy and did not want to wait a few weeks to get my notebook back
    4. Luckily, the store I bought my notebook at was nice enough to replace my notebook for a new one. I got home, tested it, and the same thing happened. So I think we eliminated faulty hardware.
    So now what? What else can I try?

    have you done EC reset? https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/how-to-reset-the-ec-embedded-controller
    can you try to plug the HDMI into your dell screen[insteal of sharp TV] to check if the same issue will hapends?
    Install latest Intel GPU drivers from: http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect/graphics
    then retest
    -Yes, I did the full EC reset. Once the EC flash was done, I removed the power cord from the back and the battery and let it sit for a few minutes before restarting.
    - My Dell monitor is old, and does not have an HDMI port, but I will try a different cable on a different TV.
    -I already have the most recent intel graphic controller drivers, this one of the things the MSI tech support guys asked me to do by phone

  • !3d turbo experience/ ti4200 GPU fan speed problems

    I have recently bought MSI Ti4200 128MB DDR and have installed the 3d turbo software that came bundled with the card.
    Although i have no real problems with the card that i can see, the software comes up with an abnormal condition alarm; saying that the GPU fan is running at a speed of about 1700rpm (the min alarm set point is 2000rpm)
    Has anyone had similar problems?
    Is there any way of adjusting the fan speed or is it done automatically by the graphics card? ;(

    Haha..
    I personally wouldn't really rely on 3D! Turbo Experience for fan speed readings. I have a MSI GeForce 3 Ti200 equipped with a tiny little fan which I doubt would do any serious cooling, and 3D!TE tells me that it is spinning at about 5000rpm. But other than that, the voltage stuff is correct I guess haha...

  • MSI Z87-G43 can't control fan speed

    Hi, i just bought an MSI Z87-G43 and i'm using a i5-4670 on it (yeah, 4670 without the K).
    I wanted the minimum noise as possible so i bought a Noctua NH-U12P SE2
    Like the pictures shows it has 2 fans.
    I connected the 2 fans on cpu1 and cpu2 fan and both BIOS and Commander Center can see them correctly, but both of them can't change the rotation speed.
    Those fans have a 3 pins connector.
    How can i do it? Now my CPU is cool and i like it, but a little more hot for a little less noise is a good deal (and my goal!)
    thank you

    As alternative you can get a fan controller like Sunbeamtech Rheosmart PCI Fan Controller, it should allow to use 4pin PWM singnal and convert it into voltage control,
    Quote
    Product Details:
    Smart Way Controlling all Fans & Airflow. The Rheosmart PCI Fan Controller is designed to make any existing 3-pin fan automatically regularized by the PWM signal from the Motherboard! With its ability to connect two fans to a single PWM connector at a maximum of 20W/channel, a wide selection of fans can be supported. When a normal fan is connected to the Rheosmart PCI Fan Controller, they become auto adjusting through the PWM signal.
    The Rheosmart PCI Fan Controller operates in two different modes; when connected to a PWM-enabled motherboard you can allow the system to auto-adjust fan speed through he motherboard's temperature sensor. When switched onto manual mode by the pushing of the lever-switch to the right, you turn the connected fan onto manual control mode.

  • Cannot adjust R5870 Lightning fan speed

    Hi @all!
    I have a big problem:
    The catalyst-center and the afterburner show me options to slow down or speed up the vga-fan - but both do not work.
    It seems again as made for the reference design with one fan.
    How do I control the fan speed of my brand new R5870 Lightning 2-fan card?
    Any ideas?
    THX!
    EH

    Okay. THX so far... :-(
    I want to get that damn thing silent!
    What about watercooling this card?
    As far as I know, I need the plate (80,-) a water pump (40,-) a radiator (30,-) aquabox (40,-) and so on and so on... right?
    So should I take the pc and walk to the next pc-shop to get the right parts?
    Any better ideas? I still have the possibility to return the card to get a more quiet one - but that's a bad feeling... :-)

  • Alternate OC program to MSI Afterburner that doesn't use Riva Tuner?

    I noticed a 20-40 FPS frame rate drop in BF4 when using Afterburner with rivia tuner statistics server installed. I just re installed windows 7 to clean things up with a i7 4790k and new mobo upgrade. I didnt install after burner and my FPS in BF4 was pretty much pinned at 200. When I decided to install Afterburner my frames went down to 170 and even as low as 145. Still not bad but back with my old i5 it was actually causing stuttering along with the frame drop. Settings were all ultra with the last three settings off. Also running in 1080p. I would like to have an interface back like Afterburner but I dont like what the Rivia Tuner does. The card seems to run fine without it. Riva tuner seems to act like spyware or adware causing performance loss.

    Explain the issue to msi tech here: http://support.msi.com/
    they can send you updated vbios to resolve it
    Quote from: ewarwoowar on 29-January-11, 22:02:10
    I've tried the live update utility and it doesn't pick up any new BIOS for it.
    No where else I can get them from as its saturday and they only reply monday-friday
    If the card is working fine otherwise, then have some patience and contact MSI support for the updated BIOS, as Svet already recommended.

  • MSI GT683 Black Screen and full fan speed at startup

    Hello!
    SO this morning i woke up and was about to start my lovely laptop.
    I pressed the on button and the screen remained black and the fan sped up slowly and slowly, after 10 sec it was at full throttle!
    Yesterday i got tired and put my laptop to "sleep mode" because I meant to use it later, but I fell asleep can something have happened by that?
    I have had this laptop for 3 months, never had a single problem. But now this :(
    And a really need my laptop for school now!
    When i bought it one 2GB ram module was changed to a 4BG so the total would be 8GB, and a 60GB SSD was installed on the second HDD slot.(Boots on 22 sec )
    I have played a few hours of COD MW3 but i have a coolermaster laptop cooling pad with 2 fans, so the laptop did not get so hot when i played.
    So please anyone help?
    (I´ve tried booting with only one ram installed and tried my ssd in my other laptop, both are fine.)

    I know this is an old topic but I just had the same issue and wanted to post my results in case anyone else was having this issue and stumbles on this thread. I was playing a game on my laptop, temperatures were well within the normal range, and suddenly the computer made a sort of "zap" noise and the screen went black. The computer also fell deathly silent but the power light (the shield) was still on. No indicator lights on the mouse pad and the orange lights around the screen had gone out. I had no choice but to do a hard shutdown. When I turned it back on, the screen remained black, the power light remained lit, but no other lights on the computer. The fan was on ultra speed in a way that I have never heard my fan run. I smelled the exhaust to see if I smelled burning but there wasn't any sign of that. Anyway, I let the computer rest, tried again the next day with the same result. I contacted my warranty company, started a claim, and waited for them to send me the box so I could ship my laptop to them. In the meantime, determined as I am  , I tried the laptop several more times in the next few days just to see if I would have any luck. Sometimes the fan would come on and sometimes the laptop would be ghostly quiet but otherwise everything else was the same. Same blackness, same nothingness. I immediately assumed this was a major malfunction, most likely the motherboard. When the warranty company took the information for the claim, they agreed that it sounded like the motherboard or possibly the hard drive.
    Three weeks later, my laptop is on its way back to me. I received word from the warranty company that the issue was the graphics card. This completely blew my mind as I wouldn't expect the graphics card to prevent the indicator lights from flashing, the  soft touch keys at the top of the keyboard, the lights on the sides of the screen, etc. They are the experts however, right? They said the video card malfunctioned. They replaced the video card and now the laptop is in working order. They are sending it back to me now and I should hopefully receive it in the next couple of days.
    Sorry for the looooooong response but I wanted to give as much info as possible because I couldn't really find anything when I was searching for this same issue. Hope it helps someone!

  • Does anyone recommend an after market car stereo for use with iOS?

    I'm looking to replace my existing car stereo and would like to know if anyone has had any luck with after market?

    Hey,
    No Firewalls running no.. Well no software ones, just the hardware one in the DM602.
    Incidentally I managed to find another DM602 user who said to me that the Modem / Router in 'Modem Only' mode works fine.. just using the Airport Express/Extreme set up as the router.
    Will have to wait and see once I have bought the Airport Express as Modem Only mode without another Router caused me all kinds of confusion and left me unable to connect to the net or even to the Modem/Router directly when I was fiddling around with it.
    But yeah, I agree that it's odd that Mac make everything else BUT the modem to connect to an ADSL line.. and then recommend rubbish 3rd party hardware that wont allow it's customers to use it's own well designed software..
    Bit annoying.. you try and be a good Mac disciple and model consumer - Mac all the way, and still run into grief..

  • Does MSI 5850/70 have 100% fan speed for 2-3 secs when turning computer on?

    Hi,
    I currently have radeon 4870 and would like to upgrade to dx11 hardware. I seems that there are a lot of 4870/5850/5870 cards with stock coolers having this feature: they spin fan at 100% for couple seconds when I turn conputer on. And I don´t really like it. Question is, does MSI 3-in-1 High Efficiency Fan behave similarly on 5850/5870 series? If it does, can it be turn off using Afterburner or BIOS modding?

    Yup, all new(er) cards do it, from any brand/manufacturer, so its not just an MSI thing.
    And no there  is no way to turn it off, unless you can write bioscode, or perhaps mount a different aftermarket cooler.
    But why do you want to turn it off, like mentioned, they do this for a reason and its only a few seconds.
    Ive said it before and I say it once, the sound is too short and too high pitched to wake people up, unless they sleep next to the computer.
    Also, if you mod bios, or mount an aftermarket cooler and some goes wrong, bye bye warranty.

  • W530: GPU Fan Won't Stop After Starting

    Hello all,
    I'm the proud owner of a brand of the W530, which I'm absolutely loving.
    One of the greatest things is how absolutely cool the laptop stays. And after much tinkering with TPFanControl, I've decided just to let the BIOS do it's thing and keep my laptop at a constant 40C temperature, even if it means having the fan on 2700RPM all the time.
    One annoying little problem, though, is the apparent inability to control the GPU fan. 
    Once the GPU fan starts (say for example, I play a game for a short while), it will NEVER stop.
    As I never turn off my laptop, and simply sleep it when not in use, this becomes incredibly annoying, as I'm having the loud GPU fan always running, even though there is no need for it to be.
    Is this a problem with my computer or is this just the way these things are designed? Also, is there a way to manually tweak the GPU fan? (Although this is really stupid, I think we should be past the era where it becomes my job to manually set the fan everytime I want to use it for something, technology should be more advanced in this era)
    Thanks in advance

    Sounds like what this solution was intended to address:

  • MSI GTX 970 Gaming - monitoring both fans

    Is there a way to monitor the RPM of both fans on then GTX 970 Gaming card.
    MSI Afterburner monitors only one fan
    ... this would also help to determine when the 2nd fan is spinning while the 1st fan
    has stopped and Aferburner is reporting 0 RPM.

    Neither HWinfo nor Speedfan show GPU fan speed at all ...OpenHardwareMonitor at lease shows the fan speed %
    but only for one fan, Afterburner provides both the fan RPM and the % speed, but only for one fan.
    Too bad both fans could not be monitored ...would be pretty useful.

  • Does anyone know how to reset the fan on a MacBook Pro 13-inch (Late 2011) to it's factory setting speed (Maybe Terminal may help?)

    I have a late-2011 13-inch MacBook Pro running OS X Yosemite. (Standard configuration).
    My problem is that I downloaded a fan control application and it worked perfectly, but it started to get annoying so I deleted it.
    Does anyone know how to reset the fan speed back to factory settings (Maybe a command in terminal?)

  • 27" iMac how can I adjust fan speed to cool more?

    Is there a program in the OSX to check fans and temp?

    Of course. To check temperatures, you can use Temperature Monitor > http://www.bresink.com/osx/TemperatureMonitor.html
    To adjust fan speeds, use smcFanControl > http://www.eidac.de/ Be careful with fans because you mustn't set a fan speed higher than 2000 rpm. You will have problems in the future if fans work at a higher speed all the time

  • IMac (Late 2006) fan speed is 4600 rpm and nothing will change it

    I just brought my iMac 24" 2.16GHz Late 2006 back from the Apple Store today and the ODD fan is running at 4600 rpm!!! The noise it generates is way too loud. It is comparable to the wind tunnel G4 I replaced. Any thoughts on how to lower the fan speed?
    I took the iMac in on 12 Sep to repair microphone and video crashes. They repaired the mike and replaced the video card with an NVIDIA GeForce 7600GT. I picked it up on 3 Oct.
    I have SMCFan and iStat Pro installed to monitor and adjust the minimum fan speed. I tried the usual troubleshooting steps (e.g., reset PRAM, Safe Boot, ran troubleshooting utilities, etc. to no avail.

    David,
    Looking through my old posts to refresh my memory, my face is red as *I AM* mistaken:O
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4064287&#4064287
    I was recalling that Intel iMac users were doing the wrong SMC result three years ago (actually they were doing the SMU reset that was for the pre-Intel G-5 iMacs), and that you and I explained to them the correct way - which is of course what you recommended above:D
    Nevertheless, since there is no further risk of causing the fans to race in this instance, I would myself do the wrong SMC reset method, and if it does not work, turn right around and do it the way Apple recommends. This still might result in correcting the problem.
    By the way, it was widely reported three years ago that the SMC reset was frequently not successful on the first attempt, so the alternative is to try this harmless procedure at least several times before giving up on it.
