AUTO Fan Curve
Hi,
I use AUTO Fan Curve for CPU and GPU. The CPU temperature, under light load, rises sharply for a few seconds and the fans turn on. The only thing that helped me is changing Idle temp to 70°C.
I also noticed that the response time only works for lowering the temperature, and in the case of the video card it doesn't work at all (I tried setting 30 sec).

Hi,
I'm not quite happy with the way the "auto" fan curve works. It tries to do to many things, and in doing so is a master of none. It's very hard to configure. The only way it works nice is for mining rigs or any constant load. That's where it shines.
I would recommend you to stick away from it and use regular graphs/linears.
Your graphic goes from 0 to a 100 in basically 10 degrees with a 1 degree hysteresis. How do you expect that to be smooth?
Is that a curve for case fans? Cpu cooler ? What’s the temperature of your cpu at idle, light load, and full synthetic load?
This is the curve for the CPU cooler. Idle - 55 °C (jumps to 70 °C). Light load - 74 °C. Full load - 87 °C.
If your CPU jumps from 55 to 70 at idle, you might want to set your load threshold higher, since 70 is not technically a load. If your temps is jumpy, I would maybe make it go through a time average sensor, like this:
Then use that for your graph:
Notice the hysteresis value, the hysteresis checkbox, and the overall higher values. This should give you much smoother operation. If it is still too jumpy, push the graph values to the right more. If you think its too hot, then you might want to get a better cooler. 55-70 idle is a hot idle for a 9000 series.
My configuration provides for a complete shutdown of all fans up to 60 °C. Perhaps I need to move the CPU temperature to 70 °C with 0% fan speed?
@zerovvon Yes... but I would not recommend shutting off your CPU cooler completely is any case. You might find that at low RPM you can't even hear it.
