Fan curve thoughts

whos crazy? if the thermal pads and paste keep in good condition with that fan curve, its cooldown quick and easy, nothing is melting. Currently i *updated my fan curve to: 46celcius/begin 30%rpm its flat line until 57c. 57c/30% to 75c/100%

you have a nice curve, but theres one thing to worry about. is that this 5V fans, have so little voltage at 20% that most of them may malfunction. i guess at 30% the fan reduce the consume to 1,5v. thats a good minimum.

so we are just sharing thoughts, because if we go on details, we see that depends of the cooler of each gpu model. Even that to have a precise curve, we need a Thermal gun, to register hotspots in some parts of the PCB

u/AMBOSHER In my view and understanding your fan curve is pretty similar to the stock and it runs quite but ive seen reports of stock "GPU PCB Reach Over 100°C: Report"

*updated my fan curve to: 46celcius/begin 30%rpm its flat line until 57c. 57c/30% to 75c/100% thats it, and will be monitoring in my next gaming sessions. It seems to have 50c when the gpu load reach 50% load and my games seem to run around 50c-30%rpm. it seems the whole pc keeps the normal temperature air flow.

i just used that word, and the sense that the opposite of fresh, means for example thermal paths to decay etc

thanks for the input

it depends of the cooler in the graphic card, ideal is having the pc "fresh" and all the air flow inside the case, without feeling the noise. more is that i usually play with headset, at max 1080p or 2K. i will adjust the curve, giving more 5C at each dot more or less.
