For some reason my fans were a little louder than normal, not loud but louder than normal (corsair fans, AIO, and Asus motherboard etc).

In the Armory Crate I usually select the Silent mode on the dashboard and it's OK, but that option was still louder than normal.

So I tried doing something and it said I needed to run Auto Tuning, which I did.

Mistake! fans are louder and I have no idea how to reset it as choosing silent now is louder than before.

Is there a way I can get it back to how it was? if not any suggestions for the fan curves as I have no idea.

In the PC is a 7800X3D, 4090, Asus ROG X670E Hero MB etc.
 
Sometimes you need to run the tuning several times in fan xpert for it to correctly pick your fan RPM up (I've had it myself when changing fans around) you'll know when it's done it right as it'll correctly display your fans max RPM

I'll have to try that as I notice one fan is listed as Max 2251 RPM and Min 2250 RPM

i had this problem with my tuff x570 gaming plus
it had hte minimum and maximum speeds as like 1 or 2rpm out from eachother i had to disconect most of hte case fans and get it to recalibrate without the fans attached
or with just one attached to each header
never did completely fix the issue
i think it was because i had bot h a 200mm and a140mm fan on the same header with vastly different speed profiles that confused the motherboard headers im guessing
 
Fan Control is an amazing piece of software, you can set all sorts of profiles and even select multiple sensors and combine them https://getfancontrol.com/
I set all my fans to 30% in BIOS so the PC boots very quietly, my fans then ramp up to speeds that are required under load, I have linked the graphics card and processor to my exhaust fans so they ramp up based on those 2 sensors. The CPU and graphics card are controlled of independent sensors if only 1 of them is being taxed, the programme is regularly updated.

Thanks, will this override the Armoury Crate Fan Xpert? I can't now see a way of disabling that.
 
I have no idea how Armoury Crate controls fans, might be worth seeing if anything is in services that can be disabled or possibly Task Scheduler, otherwise it would probably be a Registry setting. I would try to check those first as the software could be in a power battle with each other.
 
I'm coming up with a blank on the cooling issue.

I have discovered the following, the Corsair AIO which has 3 fans, and the fan on the back of my case are recognised by iCue and controllable - the 3 fans on the front of my case are not.

Fan Xpert (armoury crate) will recognise/control the 3 front fans but not the AIO.

The BIOS will control some but not all fully.

The fans always get noiser at the same point in a game no matter what I try, even if I disable iCue, Fan Xpert and have things set silent in the BIOS or any combination, the fans will always act the same. It seems that there is maybe something else controlling them but no idea what.
