I'm closing the trhead to save time on debates, which may appear here after my post with no doubts. And you do nothing but enable software automatic fan speed curve with such changes, exactly the same that can be done from GUI. The only location where those settings are actually affecting anything is main application config file MSIAfterburner.cfg. Attempt to add it to hardware profiles (VEN_XXXX.cfg files) also do absolutely nothing, those settings are not being read from them as well. Those settings are never being read from it. Original thread was about wrong claims that AB is altering fan speed during system POST and even before Windows was loaded.Īnd no, adding those lines to ProfileX.cfg (which contain profile specific hardware monitoring data) do absolutely nothing. The only common thing between original thread and the last post is 'fan speed' words taken out of context. Guys, PLEASE think twice and CAREFULLY read the thread before jumping into it with 'I have exactly the same' problem claim, when in fact your post is not related to it at all. Could this be the reason afterburner is stressing my fan so much when I startup? I know that recent MSI cards startup at 100% for 20-30sec, spinning backwards to remove dust from the GPU.

It will go from maybe 30% to 100% if it needs to, not gradual increases. If I uninstall afterburner and leave Automatic Fan Adjustment in CCC the GPU goes above 95C in simple games like Borderlands 2 because the automatic speed adjustment is crap. Fan speed update period is 10000milliseconds (10seconds) with Temperature hysteresis set to 5C. Force fan speed update on each period is ticked. Settings > Fan > Enable User defined software automatic fan control. Profile 1 has everything on it is default speeds and voltages except for the fan speeds which I set up in. I have locked my profiles with profile 1 enabled. Fan Speed is set to AUTO and 'apply overcloking at system startup' is ticked. MSI AfterBurner is set to startup with windows. They do start on 100% even if CCC is disabled from startup. The fans won't go 100% during a 'restart' but if I SHUTDOWN and do a new boot. :/ Also not including CCC in the startup didn't seem to work after all. Click to expand.When I untick it and 'apply', it reticks itself.
