G1.Sniper 2 - Fan controll - problem

[bluelou]

Hi

I have a G1.Sniper 2 (F5 BIOS)mobo inside a Fractal Design Define R3 case. I use the Noctua NH-U12P SE CPU cooler with 1 fan in addition I use 1 front mounted Noctua 120 mm fan along with a the two standard fans that comes along with the fractal design case, 1 120 mm front fan and 1 120 mm rear fan. All fans are connected to the mobo.
 
Since I think the PC is a bit noisy, I am trying to adjust the fan speed by using the CPU SMART fan control option in the BIOS. When I choose the NORMAL mode, I have the following read out;

CPU FAN:1313 RPM
System 1: 1038 RPM
System 2: 0 RPM
System 3: 670 RPM
System 4: 1140 RPM

When I change from Normal to Silent, the values does not change and I have the same noise from the case. Am I doing anything wrong? Or does this fan control option not work?
Does anyone have better suggestions for getting the fan speed down instead of using the BIOS?

Hi bluelou,  

Mobo infos:

I find your manual for Noctua:

I add a picture...

Manual of mobo:

CPU_FAN/FAN1/FAN2/FAN3/FAN4 (Fan Headers) page 25

PC Health Status page 56
Verify and give us all parameters for section FAN (Speed an Fan Warning and Controls)

Have you use EasyTune 6 ?  Page 72, 74
Is not a obligation, just answer to question ... yes or no...
I am not a user for this software...


Otherwise I prefer  use a HWInfo64 for check a temp and RPM...
