What I would do if I had the option to would be to lower fan speeds as much as possible in the low temp range to minimize the sound they make during everyday use. Then have them ramp up quickly to keep the gpu from throttling when I play any graphically intensive applications.
I never really cared to use OC software since it can be a little confunsing at times, still will use GPU Tweak to manage my fans speed since I live in a hot country.
Edit: I’m a beginner so it will be a lot of trial and error lol
Not much to say here, just a fan curve, unfortunately this likely won’t matter as I have different fans pointing directly to inside the GPU itself that absolutely overpower its own fans.

[My Fan curve](https://imgur.com/a/D5hkrUW). I chose it because its quieter for longer, although the fans sound really *cool* at full pelt. In addition, it stays quiet but the fans rev up when they reach my uncomfortable range of temperature. When I say uncomfortable, I don’t mean the actual temps for my gpu. I mean the room temp when it is chilling at 70*c and its cooking me alive.
Since i love in high temps Urban Area so the Fan curve is adjusted to normal Air temp. and changed if AC is on of course.

Well, I technically have a custom fan mode, but I always put it on max, I don’t care about the sound but I’m really afraid of my cpu or GPU being “too hot”.
I don’t really care about silent – got a personal fan going in my room anyways due to heat. Made the curve a bit aggressive – rather my gpu run cool than lower volume. Don’t think I typically hit 80C, but if I do I want the fans at 100%.

I use a custom loop so I don’t have Fans on my GPU.
So: 0% all the way

I have no idea what I’m doing, but it looks nice. And my GTX 1070 probably will do just fine
I updated my fan setting to not kick on until around 40 degrees Celcius to try and keep down noise from my GPU fan when I’m not putting my PC under any load. Then after 40 degrees I have the fan speed slowly increase up to 20% until the GPU hits 70 degrees and have it durastically increase fan speed all the way up to 100% if it gets close to 90 degrees. My thoughts are if its hitting 70 degrees then I’m probably playing games and actually putting some load on my GPU at that point and need to start trying to bring the temps down. And if I’m playing games, I will definitely have my headset on and won’t notice noise from my GPU fans at that point.
With a laptop GTX 1650, it doesn’t appear that I can alter any fan settings, as seen in this screenshot. What I would do is set a relatively quiet curve for everyday use, with a steep rampup for gaming purposes or other intense graphics applications.
Not much to say tbh. I rarely see (or I guess hear) the the upper ends of this curve because the cooler on the XFX Merc 319 is huge and my undervolt from the last post is doing a lot of work to make the card run cool despite also being overclocked. For some reason my brain picked 80 C as the temp to stay below so the curve ramps more aggressively as we near it, but again, that’s more of a failsafe if anything lol.
I went with more aggressive curves and higher fan speeds when I was doing benchmarking and overclocking for fun, but for my day-to-day settings this is a good balance.

didn’t really put a lot of effort into it cause i already have water cooling
Once again the Linux community is left out. Ah well.
Asus my friend! Plz gief prize.
What if I’m happy with my stock settings? What can you possibly improve in RTX 3060 with custom settings of anything?

Mine is a pretty straightforward bump up. Noise isnt really an issue for my card, I just want a little headroom on the cooling.
i really want a 4080 S or 7900 xt

I have a laptop gtx 980m so it seems I can’t adjust the fan settings using gpu tweak III, as seen in the screenshot:

I don’t get to decide much, but if there were no compromise, I’d always decide for passive.

passive cooling goes brrr, no fan control for laptops XD

Hey everyone, this is my screenshot:)
I’m using a RX7600and I like my components to be cool. I also don’t mind the noice because most of the time I’m using my PC I’ve got my headset on.
Good luck to everyone!

İ am using Asus tuf 3080. My room is already cold enough and i have a good airflowed case. im happy with these settings.

my card is tuf 3080. i am using these curve for a long time and happy with it.

this is what i usually use, i dont really care about temp as long as it below 90, so i set fans speed to max 77
