"Nvidia graphics cards with their latest drivers may be misinterpreting the fan speed of our coolers and thus the reporting through software is wrong. Further Nvidia is no longer controlling the fan speed depending on PWM values based on the GPU temperature. E.g. if you set 30% PWM, Nvidia translates it into 1050 RPM. Independent whether you run a 40 mm (10,000 RPM max) or a 140 mm (1,500 RPM max) fan and independent of their maximum fan speeds, Nvidia will drive both at exactly 1050 RPM."

This is the issue I was talking about before I bought this cooler, I don't think this messages is on Accelero's website anymore but I found it quoted on another forum from their website.

I would have thought they should act just like the stock fans, make sure the connector is seated properly. Or do what i did with my old accelero and install Speedfan and just set them to low rpm and see how temps are. Even set to just 30% they were still better cooling by magnitudes than the stock cooler.

The Accelero cooler cools different than stock cooler .. meaning different temps at same fan speeds .. which is likely why the fan curve is now running differently.

Yeah I got round it by just setting a custom fan curve in precision or afterburner after finding out what % fan speed maxed out the accellero fans. Tbh it's so quiet even at max load it took me a while to notice over the other card in the system
