Summary | 0001385: no fan control with IT8720 | ||||
Description | - the rpm is correct now, but it seems that i cannot control any fanspeed with speedfan - no manual nor automatic control (the "power" % changes, but nothing happens with the fans) | ||||
Additional Information | - with version 4.37, i got some strange rpm for the cpu (16 to 23 instead of 1000 tot 1500) - installed 4.38 beta, and the rpm is correct now, but no fan control - fan control works with a program from asus called "q-fan" | ||||

it works: - disable q-fan (software) - in speedfan: configure > advanced tab > select chip IT8720F: set PWM mode to "software controlled" (instead of smartguardian) fan1=cpu, fan2=chasis1, fan3=chasis2 speed2=cpu, speed3=chassis1-2 (for me, speed01 doesn't do anything) you can see the configuration in the attatched image |
|
but there is an issue this asus EPU software (power/performance adjusting program): every time the EPU state is switched (by user or auto), the speedfan setting in advanced tab > switches back from "software controlled" to "smartguardian" and fanspeed control is off again ... maybe deinstalling this software will help, i'll test it tomrrow |
|
According to your reports it looks to me that there are two different tools that are applying changes to the same object. There is little I can do. Either choose one or the other for the task of controlling fan speeds. |
|
yes, it appears that this motherboard EPU software has some influence on the fans: it doesn't actally control the speed, but sets the min/max speedrange (for q-fan) depending on the powerscheme ... anyway, i uninstalled it and everything is working fine (also cool'n'quiet) ... now i'll just let speedfan do its magic :) thanks for this fine program |
|
Thank you :-) |
