Speedfan problem

[Gray2233]

How rude, you have a serious attitude problem.

Bye!

Sexy isn't rude, he's blunt and to the point.

Perhaps a little older than most on here too, and I don't mean that insultingly. I can be too at times, perhaps offer a little grace there as you clearly seem invested in the forum and I think by and large you're a good addition.

I've not seen this behaviour. Whenever I've deliberately killed the app in Task Manager to simulate a crash the fans always immediately ramped up to full speed (this was true of SpeedFan as well as Fan Control).

What fan control programs were you using? Did you have the BIOS fan controls disabled/set to full speed?

Speedfan is my main one. It's too long ago to remember much else I experimented with before settling on that TBH. I'm not sure terminating in Task Manager represents a proper crash really, but haven't exactly researched!

Maybe it's when the app gets unresponsive but doesn't close, rather than crashes and exits. That's ringing a bell.

Personally I like FanControl for controlling my fans day-to-day. I hate the software that comes with motherboards. I find the fan control options in the BIOS a bit basic and not too flexible to use day-to-day.

Fan control is by far better than speedfan. this is due to speedfan not having been updated for some years and likely won't see the new controllers in newer motherboards
