Hi,

my card runs in idle with 1350 rpm at 45%. I would like to change it with Maxwell Bios Tweaker.

Original values:

RPM11: 1350
TMP11: 40,00
PER11: 45

RPM12: 1567
TMP12: 65,00
RPM12: 55

RPM13: 3000
TMP13: 95,00
RPM13: 100

PER01: 25
RPM01: 1350

PER02: 100
RPM02: 3000



my modified values:

RPM11: 750
TMP11: 40,00
PER11: 25

RPM12: 1567
TMP12: 65,00
RPM12: 55

RPM13: 3000
TMP13: 95,00
RPM13: 100

PER01: 25
RPM01: 750

PER02: 100
RPM02: 3000

After I flashed the BIOS with nvflash, the fan went off and on every 2 or 3 seconds.

Does anyone knows, what I did wrong?

Thanks
Sören

Just use afterburner and create a custom fan curve, I do this as well.

NO need to take the risk and flash your card for that....

I am from Germany, right :)

In Windows using Afterburner, I can't go lower that 45% Fan Speed. There is no option to do so.

I use MacOS and there is no Afterburner. Any idea what I can do?

Yes I did, also you can download the original bios from Gigabyte directly. Currently I use the official bios and there is no issue, the fan runs high but everything else is ok.
