MSI Afterburner Fan speed?

i have a MSI Radeon HD 5970 g.c. and i recently adjusted fan speed to cool off to about 35 degrees C when pc starts.
to do this i raised fan speed to about 60%.
normally, the fan comes on and while progressively cooling my g.c. it cycles down to a lower fan speed.
just recently though, the fan has stopped cycling down after startup or during gameplay that causes lots of heat, cycling up to account for the heat.
i have MSI afterburner v2.0.0 with latest graphics drivers and what not(im pretty sure, as of feb. 4,2011)
is this a common problem or is there something simple i can do to fix?

Try downloading Afterburner 2.1.0 Beta 7 here and see if that changes anything.
The one you have is older and known to have issues.
Edit:
Here's a quote with from the changes they made:
Quote
Fan control settings are now being forcibly reapplied after changing the clocks via unofficial overclocking path to bypass bug in AMD driver causin the fan control settings to be reset to defaults after programming PowerPlay table
So that might be the problem you have.
Good luck

  • Afterburner Fan Speed

    Sorry didn't know where to go to post my little concern
    But i'd like to know why i can't put my GPU Fan higher than 85% with MSI Afterburner program on my Geforce GTX580?

    Cause its balanced at that level, over 85 is too noise and no need to go over it.

  • MSI HD 7850 1GB GDDR5 OC edition Fan speed problem

    Hello all.
    I have some strange issue with my graphic card and fan i think. I have noticed that, when my monitor goes to sleep (or when I manually turn off), after few minutes (7-8-9-10) I can loudly hear GPU fan acceleration. And it happens every few minutes. So, everything is ok few minutes, and after that, again I can hear that annoying sound, the sound of accelerated fan. That happens only, but only when the monitor is switched off (whether it manually or automatically switched off).
    I bought this video just 2 months ago, as well as other components of the computer. So, everything is practically new.
    I have tested my graphic card with MSI Kombustor v. 2.4, and everything was fine. Temperatures, FPS, and all that stuf was fine.
    I've never had a problem in any game so far. Everything working fine on high details all kind of games. Temperatures are pretty
     normal. In a fact, I think that is temperature is lower than some average. I have a problem only with horizontal lines, but that is because i have monitor with VGA output. As a mather of fact, barely notice them. And, I have instaled latest 13.4 drivers. I deleted the old version with driver sweeper. And in an earlier version of driver was the same problem...
    Again, the problem arises when my monitor is off. I have tested with MSI Afterburner 2.2.5 beta and GPU-Z 0.7.0.
    All settings in both of programs are on default. So, that numbers at paragraph RMP, when monitor is off, max is 1563. That is 400 more than when monitor is on.
    I have tried to test when is minimum usage of GPU fan is 40% (i just clicked on "user define" button on the right side of "fan speed"), and then, RMP number would be 1700 or even more.
    When monitor is off:
    When monitor is on:
    So, everything is perfect when monitor is on, again. I don't think that is normal, and I beg for help. Is there any kind of solution to fix this problem? Please. I am thankful in advance. Sorry for my bad English.
    P.S.
    I wanted to upload pictures, but forum does not allow me. Or, I don't know how to do that. I only want to show values...

    Usualy, i left Opera, uTorrent, Skype in backround. Then, I shut down the programs, and only programs in background are Avast 8 and Realtek Audio Manager (both are in system tray). No matter if you leave a program in the background or not, it's the same.
    I really have never met with this type of problem and I have no idea how to fix that. If I complain to the seller, he would run tests like I did, and everything would be ok. And when  I would told him about the fan problem, probably would have told me that everything is okay...
    I don't know what to try, really...

  • MSI GTX 460 1 Gb OC & NiBiTor, fan speed mod

    A dew days ago, i purchased an MSI GTX 460 1 GB OC graphics card.
    This one:
    http://hr.msi.com/product/vga/N460GTX-M2D1GD5-OC.html
    Problem is, fan is too loud at idle. I've tried using MSI Afterburner but it won't let me
    go lower than 40%, which is too much. As Svet is no longer able to mod BIOS (which i perfectly
    understand when we look at number of requests he received daily  ) i tried to do it myself.
    I saved BIOS with GPU-Z and opened it with NiBiTor. I found an option to change minimum fan speed
    from 40 to 30. But, problem is that NiBitoR puts red dot at the "integrity" check, immediately when
    I open it. Does this means that NibiTor was unable to properly read BIOS information? Does this mean that I can't safely save a BIOS and will damage my card if I try to flash a card with modded BIOS?
    NibiTor is version 6.02. My card is MSI N460GTX M2DIGD5
    S/N 602-V232-150B1101136247

    My e-mail?  There is nothing there.
    I think that GPU-Z has some problems saving my BIOS. When i use nvflash
    saving option (from DOS), Nibitor shines a green dot whan i opened BIOS with it! 
    I've sent an e-mail with BIOS to Svet, but with the version extracted with GPU-Z. I think
    that BIOS was corrupt...

  • MSI HD7950(twin frozr) 100% fan speed .. anymore solutions

    Hi guys
                i purchased a  msi HD7950 twin frozr from ebay however it runs at 100% all of the time and no software can tame it ... ive also followed the guide and removed the faulty D201 diode which also never worked as the card still runs at 100% ( speedfan reports 4000rpm )
                so apart from the faulty diode and using software is there anything else i can do ....   ?
                i was considering strapping 2 x 120mm fans to the card powered directly from the psu and a 3rd party gpu cooler ( such as the arctic cooling range ) also came to mind allthough these tend to be expensive
                i also considered a fan limiter i got with a previous 3rd party gpu cooler .... if i reduced the fan speed power from 12v to 7v would this make any difference ?   
                     many thanks

    Well at what temp does the gpu/ram/vrms run at? Check with Afterburner: >>How to use MSI Afterburner<<

  • MSI 270X Gaming troubles!(black screen on boot/Fan speed on max)

    Hello. I bought a brand new videocard - MSI 270X Gaming. But I got troubles with the computer boot. I start the computer, i got the greenting sound of Windows 7(everything's work), but i don't have anything on the screen - pitch black! And the fan speed is max. That's it!!! In order to make it work, I'm suppose to unplug the card from the PCI-e slot and put in back in. When i do this, it work fine... until the next time I have to turn on my computer. Again the same story. Only removing and putting back the card in the PCI slot works. I updated my MB Bios to latest ver. - don't work. Clear CMOS - don't work.
    To make sure the problem is in the card, not in the PC, i'v putted another videocard and it's working nice
    So guys if you have any ideas how to make this card work fine, please tell me. My other option is to return it to the store!

  • MSI P6NGM-L system temperature and processor fan speed

    Hi folks,
    I've got a MSI P6NGM-L board that is reaching a system temperature of 46ºC-47ºC at everyday load (not playing games or doing heavy work... just browsing, email, text editor, etc). My case has got a frontal and rear 120mm (exaustor) fan, and my processor (Core 2 Duo E7200), an Akasa AK-965BL cooler. My graphics board is a XFX Geforce 9800GT with Zalman FC-ZV9 cooler. Overall temperature is just fine, except for the system temperature, that is 32ºC when the system is turned on and is cold, and reaches about 47ºC after some time and using. I disabled the onboard NVIDIA on BIOS, but that didn't make any difference. Is that temperature OK for my configuration, or somehow high?
    I thought about taking off the northbridge heatsink and applying Arctic Silver 5 in it, but I don't know if that would make any difference, and it would give me a big job, because I would have to take the board off... so I don't know if it's worth.
    Another question, is P6NGM-L board PWM compatible? I tried using speedfan to control the processor's temperature but it says it's at 100%, and I know the cooler is in silent operation. If so, what software should I use to control the processor fan?
    Thanks for any help

    I don't have a way to measure my room's temperature, but it's quite hot... something like 26ºC.
    I thought that with all the cooling I've got inside my case the system temp would get lower, but it is still the same under normal load, even since my case had only one exaustor and stock coolers.
    What about the processor's fan speed? Can I really change it by software? I plan to do some overclocking, so I would like to do tests with the processor cooler in full speed... I've googled all the way around, but couldn't find substancial information about P6NGM-L support for that.
    Thanks

  • MSI CD53, i5 750 - Problem with CPU Fan Speed

    Hello
    I have problem with this counfiguration: i5 750, MSI CD53 Motherboard.
    I Have processor overheating poblem. I noticed that processor easly can go up to 90C.
    I check phisycal installation, and all its ok.
    After that i check RPM of CPU FAN and i noticed that it cant go over 1000 RPM, so propably this is problem.
    In MSI Control Center maximum i can set 1000 RPM.
    I read that CPU FAN can go up to 3000 RPM.
    Maybe i have something wrong set up in bios? What can i do with this?

    Quote
    CD53
    Which board exactly do you have?
    What is your current BIOS Version?
    What kind of CPU-Fan are you using (3-Pin or 4-pin PWM (four wires) and which connector is it attached to?
    What are your current fan speed/control settings in BIOS Setup?

    I check phisycal installation, and all its ok.
    Physical installation is one thing, but what about thermal paste (have you used a PROPER amount (too much thermal paste has the opposite effect))?
    What about your case ventilation?

    I noticed that processor easly can go up to 90C.
    Please check the CPU's core temperatures with CORE TEMP, REAL TEMP or HW-MONITOR!

  • MSI Dual CoreCenter - fan speed warning

    Hi MSI community!
    I have a MSI K9n Neo V2 and I have installed MSI Dual CoreCenter on my PC. Now the problem is that MSI DUal CoreCenter keeps warning me about low CPU fan speed (~900 rpm). I noticed that the limit is 1000 rpm. The thing is my CPU doesn't run hot, 30-40 °C (90-100 °F), so the warning is quite irritating.
    Is there a way to turn off warning, or lower the warning fan speed limit (regedit?) so I still can use this program? 
    Kind regards
    Mike

    Quote from: Hans on 08-October-09, 01:17:34
    Are you overclocking the system? If not, don't use anything. You don't need a monitoring program. The bios does the work for you. (Meaning: the system will shut down when overheating. Meaning as well: the system will regulate fan speed).

    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 GT70-20C Optimal Fan speed

    I have a question about my fan speed.When my laptop is on normal-i am not working on it, the temperature is 39c on the one core and something like 43 on the other.My fan speed on normal is from 1890 to 1930 RPM.Is this normal? Cuz i hear my laptop a little bit noisy, and i think 2 months ago it wasn't like this. Btw, i formatted my laptop 2 weeks ago, and its still the same-before and after it.Please share an opinions,how your laptop is doing... i will be grateful.

    How are you liking it so far?
    Just got mine, I've had and gone through 7 Asus g750 models. Starting with jw, then jm, then js, then jz. Had cpu thermal throttling on all of them. So now I switched to msi, gave up high cpu and low gpu temps for low cpu and high gpu temps. But I knew this before coming to msi. I render and edit 4k video, the cpu thermal throttle spikes, result in a glitch during that part of the final movie, when this happens over and over through the whole rendering process, the whole final video is poop. Asus final result was to tell me that I should be happy to get turbo, but to run stock without turbo boost aka 2.4ghz. I told them no freakin way am I running 2.4ghz, that's not acceptable, goodbye.
    And now hello, msi.
    Overall, asus vs msi, still blow for blow just as nice. But I will say I have no regrets coming to the GT70, fan noise a little loud while gaming, im not used to that. But I don't game much.

  • MSI Dual Core Centre 2.0.1.0 (Fan Speed ALARM)

    Spec:
    MSI P965 Neo F v2.0
    Intel E6600 Core 2 Duo
    XFX-Nvidia 7800gt 256
    4 GB 800Mhz Ram
    Hi guys,
    Anyone here know why the following would happen:
    I use the MSI Dual Core Centre 2.0.1.0 for Windows XP... every so once in a while, the fan speed would drop to 0-RPM, and
    a very irratating alarm would go off. This started to worry me, and I opened my side panel to look at the CPU Fan when the alarm goes off.
    the Fan is turning at high velocity, but the alarm still goes off. Is there something wrong with this software ? or am I doing something wrong.
    One minute it reports 2005-RPM, then it just shows 0-RPM, and the alarm goes off. My machine is about 2 months old.
    Should I be making changes in the BIOS on the Mobo, to enable support for Dual Core Centre???
    Please help...very worried...
    By the way "Speed Fan" reports no such alarms or CPU fan speed issues...
    What is going on ?

    Not sure if this may work bc you reported fanspeed reaching zero.
    On my system with 975XPUE, Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 always runs below 1K rpm.  So I have to use a user profile with Fan Min set about 833 rpm to avoid the annoying alarm.
    If you don't find any solution to the reported fanspeed reaching zero, you might be able to at least disable the alarm by setting Fan Min in DCC to 0 rpm.  That or uninstall DCC as suggested by most forum users.
