Afterburner fan curve not working

[gt_addict]

Hi guys,

Just bought a couple of 1080ti from a fellow member. The cards are working perfectly but AB doesnt apply the custom fan curve after I close the AB window. It drops the fan speed down to 50% when i have set it to 70%.

I have a custom fan curve setup on my other 1070to rig and it works fine. I have checked all settings and they are identical (obviosuly the OC are different). I iust cant fogure iut why the fan curve settings will stick when AB window is open but when I close it it reverts back to a deafukt setting.

Ab is running in the background and on startup. As I said on the other rig it works fine.

Any help is appreciated. All drivers are up to date and its the latest version of AB.

Cheers.

PS. Also tried EVGA Precision OCX and that does the same.

that is weird.

did you try a flat number?

say 70%

where are you mining?

nicehash   sometimes over rides msi afterburner.

those cards   are pretty good at 70% tdp with 70% fan speed if mining  equihash

Hi philip,

Rigs are in a spare bedroom (close to the floor on shelving) with good ventilation but the room gets a fair amount of sun so temps rise. As said the 1070ti rig is running great. Constant fan setting works fine. If i set the fan curve and manuall adjust the fan slider on the main screen then it will stay at that setting and wont change. Auto is switched off. If i switch auto on then the fan soeed drops to 50% and temps rise to over 70c.

Funnily enough im mining equihash with DSTM on 65% TDP +200core +675mem getting around 670sols each. Havent really dialled them in yet as i would like to get the fan issue sorted.

Im still having no luck trying to figure it out. No other software installed that would conflict, latest drivers and latest AB.

set your fan curve
apply it
after that click "save" in Afterburner window and store your settings to some profile
then open Afterburner Options - Profiles tab
and choose that profile for both 2D and 3D apps.

Ive done all of that apart from the “2D and 3D apps” as that option isnt anywhere I can see in the menus.

that option is the key to success.
you should install RTSS together with Afterburner for "Profiles" tab to become available.

Went back and installed RTSS still the same problem. If i close the AB window then it reverts back to running fans at 40% or so. If i leave the window open it runs the fan curve.

oh, it seems like that issue is caused by Precision OCX v6.2.4 and above.
