Sup guys? Work day finished for today here. Wanted to chilll a bit.
I've been thinking about the semi-passive feature my GPU has. Up to 60 degrees celcius, fans don't spin up. The average temp is 50-54 degrees while browsing, watching movies etc. Thing is, fans are inaudible at 33%, which is the default setting the manufacturer programmed. I see no reason for the fans not to start with the PC. With fans average temp is 44. Without the fans, GPU dumps heat inside the case for no reason. In the end, I find the semi-passive feature annoying, at least for me. I've seen plenty of people that swear by it and how awesome it is. How do you feel about it? Am I an outsider on this one ?
