New Inno3D 1080 X3 fan problem

Hey guys

The problem is with FAN control (RPM) If fan is on AUTO and i play games or run benchmark, the RPM is LOW and temperature rises 80c+ in a few minutes.
If i set FAN on 100% in desktop RPM is around 1500-1550 (desktop) and temp is going down. You can hear the fan noise. But when i go back in game the RPM drops again an no more fan noise.
Fan RPM or fan control is working as it should be in 2D (desktop) but not in 3D (games, benchmark) after going in 3D fan control is not working and RPM is on low all the time...
Where is the problem? I tried different drivers, clean WIN installation, different inno BIOS...

Here you can see the problem (check mouse pointer)...

I tried to contact INNO3D but no answer :down::rolleyes:

i'm using msi afterburner to control my evga fan profiles, not having any issues at all.

If i use MSI or EVGA tool it's the same. The problem is not in tool. I can set any FAN profile but it wont work in 3D. If i set fan to 100% and hit apply i can hear fan noise. When i start game fan noise is gone and fan RPM is on low. When i exit game, fan is on 100% again. You can see on video in my first post.
I can't play like that. Temp is on 80+ in a few minutes and than GPU clock decrease. Fu*k Inno3d and no customer suport.

since it's still new, why not return it ?

Tomorrow i will return the card and take Asus Strix gaming if everything will be as is should be...

I'm done with Inno3D :down:

nice... :up:

This Strix is OC like crazy.
Stock voltage, fan on 80%
2100+Mhz for now...

Bye bye Inno3D...

That's weird in 2d the fan control would work but not in 3d, but they are diff tables in the bios, it's just weird it's not able to be set.

But yeah you gotta use msi afterburner.
Or on linux you have to write a script.
If you need this code lemme know, I may not respond right away but I will eventually...

It's really a requirement on my card.
Mine runs at 0rpm at most loads except for the heaviest.
My 680's default was 30% rpm, I set to 37 because at 30 the temp goes to high.
At 0, it's a huge prob as soon as I watch youtube or watch a video of any kind, esp 4k ones, it just doesn't know any better.

When gaming I set my own profile script up, linux, same for windows.
Part of my script, this wil give you an idea of how to setup the ramp up in msi afterburner:
GPU_Fan_Speed_Min="37"
GPU_Fan_Speed_Max="90"

I don't really recommend that you max the fans out, it'll burn them out quicker.
Unless you have them powered up directly to the psu, I'm not sure if these fans are pwm or not (if there were then there's no reason not to use a ramp).
Anyways you get the idea.

Set a min of 30-40%, I recommend the latter.
It's almost silent anyways and you wont end up in trouble later on.

Good deal you got a new card anyways... :up:

This so called feature of silent fans is a bad thing for vga cards.

Eh screw it, I'll give you the code right now incase you do end up using linux or someone else does, it does what it needs to, you need to run it in a terminal and ctrl-c to exit it, then set the fan to a fixed speed after you're done gaming, this isn't important but I have it in .bashrc, and I created a file called bash_api in /bin to call these from menu's and so on, like I said that's just my config.
There's a few things in here for my specific cpu and mobo, but I use them the same every boot.
The cpu tdp code does soemthing, but not much lol, it lowers the max mhz by just a few lmao, whatevers.

The actual statues code doesn't work right anymore I need to redo parts, it's older and before I started doing fan stuff and redid it for the 1080ti.

# ^^ this seems to increase my fan speed of my pwm fans...
# I thnk it means 25c
#echo 25000 > "/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1/pwm2_auto_point2_temp"

#cat "/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1/pwm2"
#says 178 now

#cat "/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1/pwm2_auto_point2_pwm"
#178

#165
#cat "/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1/pwm2"
#165 ...

#ok now I'm getting it
# 255 must be max
