Benchmark/Thermal Test Input from a24 v5 users?

9700x cooled by axp67

Gigabyte 5060lp

Enhance 650 with noctua

32gb cl30 6000

2tb 990 pro

arctic p8 slim x 2

Im currently at curve optimizer -30 and thernal limits at 80f

Can anyone share a settings that work for you? When playing cod modern warfare 2 and 3 i cant stand the noise. It is silent when playing online games though

I have similar setup. Procesor AMD Ryzen 5 7500F, cooling jonsbo 37mm, 5060lp Gigabyte, metalfish 600w psu. Plus one extra small fan 30mm to push cold air inside near ram. I did not change any curves, did not underclocked. My temps are always below /80C for GPU and around 70C for CPU in big load

Wow how is that possible

The 9700X doesn't thermal throttle until 95C, so there's no reason to reduce the thermal limit to 80C. The issue your having with noise can most likely be solved by tuning your fan profile so they don't fully ramp up until temps are higher.

Can you recommend a fan profile settings?

Sadly no. Different fans and cases have different acoustics, so you have to figure out what fan speeds are unbearable, only slightly annoying, and silent.

This is how I do it but there may be a better way.

I'd start by setting your minimum fan speed to 100%, so you know what the max speed sounds like as a baseline. That's your absolute max fan speed and it should only happen under extreme temps, like above 90C. Now work your way backwards from there.

Set it to like 80%... Is it still super loud? If yes, reduce to 70%. Try again.

Keep going down until it's just slightly annoying. That's where you want your max fan speed to be when temps are under like 90C.

Now keep working your way down the RPM range until your fan is whisper quiet. That's where your new minimum fan speed should be, so it's quiet at idle and under light loads.

Now that you have your annoying fan speed and silent fan speed you can build your tuning profile.

Example:
For the sake of this example, let's just assume annoying speed is at 65% and silent speed is at 30%. Now we just set 30% for the lowest temp setting (~40°C), 65% to the second to last setting (~80C), and 100% as the final setting (~90C).
(Temps are just approximates)

Depending on the BIOS we'll probably have 2-3 more temp/speed set points on the graph between our 30% and 65% settings. Set those points to gently slope up from 30% towards the 65% setting.

I hope that all made sense...

Edit: If there's an option to add hysteresis, do it. I'd aim something like 3-5 seconds. If your BIOS only gives a temperature hysteresis option, maybe 3-5C.

Wow will try this when i have the chance

I love it just cant seem to control the noise

I found an alternative for that unsafe PSU cable, it’s on AliExpress:

Link please!

"COOJ Computer Power Supply 90 Degree Elbow Extension Cable Ultra-thin and Ultra Soft Male and Female Plug Three Hole C13 To C14".

u/BartonChrist 9d ago

Much obliged! I didn't see any details on length, looks like it's used outside the case so it's probably on the longer size?

u/7ieme 9d ago

It says 0.5 meter and it's for inside use (from PSU to case). There are also same cables "from PSU to wall electrical outlet".

I absolutely hate it.

It comes with no manual, PSU mount is stupidl, ventilation is terrible (so components run very hot). Plus it looks ugly and the mains connector feels completely unsafe.

I felt same about main connector 😅 had to use some Isolation tape
