Force fans to go faster?

[sparker]

Thanks for that. Just had a look at it appears that the 16F2 EC is very similar to the GX640's, in fact the utilities in my signature which I made for the GX640 should work.
At first glance the main difference appears to be that the default fan speeds are slightly different, however I should be able to make a new default profile with the correct speeds in the next few days.
If you try it and it doesn't work you can always reset to the default values at any time, just remove all power sources from your laptop for 10 minutes or so.

The current fan trip settings for the laptop seem to be:
Set 1:
Temperature (Degrees Celsius) - Fanspeed (%)
53 - 30
60 - 35
67 - 40
74 - 43
81 - 50
90 - 54
110 - 66
Critical Trip Point (I think) - 97

Set 2:
Temperature (Degrees Celsius) - Fanspeed (%)
53 - 30
60 - 35
67 - 40
72 - 43
77 - 50
82 - 58
106 - 66

I never actually found out how the laptop decides to use each set so when I edit them i usually just set both to the same values to ensure consistency.

I played around with it, and as far as I can tell S2 is the GPU. The GPU and CPU use the same fan, so if one is hot and the other isn't it still send the fan up.

I ran furmark with the S1 set at 31% all the way across, and set S2 to go too 100% at 65C, when the GPU hit 65C the fans went to rocket mode.

S1=CPU
S2=GPU

Try it with your own machine before you blame me for something bad though. Thanks for the tool!

So this was on a 16f2? With what file?

Yes, with the tool from Pherein's sig.

Where is the button to generate the scripts? I can't seem to find it on the spreadsheet. I am using open office.

This works perfectly. Now I get back the "Silent Mode" I had with the M860ETU, by running the fan at 10%.

Additionally, pressing the otherwise useless webcam button overclocks my GPU, runs ThrottleStop, sets the power mode to "High Performance", and maxes out the fan all at once.

Can you describe the steps you did to get it to work?

I downloaded Pherein's zip file and pointed all of the bat files to the directory where I extracted the portable version of RW-Everything and to the directory where I extracted the ".rw" files to. To edit the values, I just open the ".rw" file with notepad and enter the hex of the temperature/percentage I want.

Not sure how to do it with open office (or if you can). Using MS Office, you go to the developer tab and run a macro that creates fan profiles. You then load the desired profile with RW-Everything.

I kept the stock CPU profile, and made the GPU profile much more aggressive to keep my OC cool while gaming.

1. Download tool here

2. Read readme- it took me 4-5 reads of it to figure it out

3. Create fan profile you like, or optionally use the "Quiet" profile as the default choice, as it is more aggressive than the stock profile on the 16F2. The "default" profile is extremely loud on my machine, and imo overkill.

For reference, stock 16F2 profile is as follows:

Set 1 (CPU):
Temperature (Degrees Celsius) - Fanspeed (%)
53 - 30
60 - 35
67 - 40
74 - 43
81 - 50
90 - 54
110 - 66
Critical Trip Point (I think) - 97

Set 2 (GPU):
Temperature (Degrees Celsius) - Fanspeed (%)
53 - 30
60 - 35
67 - 40
72 - 43
77 - 50
82 - 58
106 - 66

Ah did not realise the batch files were pointing to the original owners users file.

+rep.

By the way, that turbo fan mod is suuuuuuweet!
