    Pretty easy to do.  I use the EVGA Precision x app, with I think works on any kind of card.  You can modulate the fans on your cards.  Mine runs at 63 degrees.

    Tried the one from Zotac, had issues so i have left it alone.  Was getting weird issues with the card that emulated a dying card until I uninstalled the software.  Personally my system is fine.  I like the peace and quiet when its not rendering.  Dont notice it when im gamming since I have headphones on.

  • I was having cooling problems myself fixed it by adding to fans. I should mention my case sits horizontal so there is no stress on pcie slots or cards and I took off the panels so that it could cool better.

    Hi there

    I would use MSI AB(Afterburner) for controlling the fans on the GPU,I use that as my ZOTAC do have same feature,when GPU fans won't run until reaches 50C,create own profile with AB,here is my profile,its attached,try replicate that profile and report back,if you want to improve yours cooling and if you are running two GPU then I would suggest to remove PCI slots which will or should push hot air from front to back of the case,but problem can be if you have poor or poorer fans which don't have enough good pressure(static) 

    In most cases 200 or 230mm fans don't have good airflow and they're not best performers,due this I usually recommend to replace them for good 140mm fans something like is PH-F140SP,but this is dependent on yours case if its allow to fit 140mm fans,140mm fans will and have better static pressure than 120 fans,due this if you could use 140mm fans 

    You can try improve airflow of the case and optimize airflow of the case,try run case fans faster when you render,but be careful sometimes too many fans can cause airblow and not airflow

    Hope this helps

    Thanks,Jura

    Thank you but all is well for me with my case, cpu, gpus and fans.  The HafX has a 140mm, 230mm and 3 200mm fans.  The CPU has dual 140mm fans and the setup for the GPU fan control is fine.
