GPU Fan stop issue.

This started a few days ago after running Fan Control without issue for months. So i updated Pawn IO and reinstalled the new version of Fan Control while trouble shooting. The issue persists. Otherwise the new version picked up everything well. This was an improvement over the older version set up.

GPU fans keep spinning after GPU temps decrease below set fan curve with can control running. If i exit Fan Control the GPU fans keep spinning, never go to 0%. After a restart, If i do not start fan control the GPU fans will go back to zero when the temps drop. Once i run Fan Control again and load the GPU the fans will not drop below 30% once they have spun up regardless of the temps.

I tested this with - Nvidia 0% hardware curve override on and off, same outcome.

I am running no other software aside from a Steam game to load the GPU.

I adjusted the Fan start/stop % in the fan card without success.

Checked Nvidia settings for Power management mode, Set to Normal.

I have included a picture of the GPU fan card and GPU fan graph. Am i getting a setting wrong that is causing this? If any other information is needed let me know.

Over the last few days my GPU fans are always at a minimum 30% even while not under load after use. Previously they always went to 0% when the GPU was not in use and the temps were low.

When i boot up my computer the fans spin on boot up then go to 0% if i am not using the GPU. Once i load a game and temps go up the fans kick on and run normally. When i exit a game and the temps go back down, the fans continue to spin at 30%. As long as the computer remains on the fans continue to spin at 30% speed while not under load (GPU temps below 35c).

If i reboot the fans will spin on startup and then go to 0% until i run a game, then they are permanently running until i reboot.

Anyone seen this before? Thanks.

Hey guys. Updated PawnIO and installed the updated Fan Control software today. It picked up all my fans without issue an improvement over the older version that i was running.

I have encountered one issue. When i load the GPU the fans spin up from 0% as usual and Fan control runs them on my set fan curve, but when i remove the load from the GPU the fans stay at 30% and keep spinning until i restart the computer. I get "?30%" software's GPU fan card.

In the past when i stopped using the GPU its fans would go back to 0% fan speed and turn the fans off.

Has anyone els encountered this behavior?

Thanks.
