MSI Afterburner - Need fan speed lower than 25% minimum.

Hello,

Recently, I decided to install MSI Afterburner with the intent of creating a fan curve to my own preferences. One feature about my card (An MSI GTX 960) is that the fans won't spin at all until around 60 degrees Celsius. However, I was not satisfied with the speed of the fans that was present upon reaching this temperature, so I decided to get this software and set the fans at 100% once reaching the temperature.

This worked, but I encountered a problem; Instead of the fans being off and silent before reaching 60 degrees, MSI Afterburner limits the fans to a minimum speed of 25% instead of my usual 0% at any given time before reaching the specified temperature. Therefore, I need some way to keep the fans at 0% until it reaches that specific 60 degrees in temperature but have been stopped, seeing 25% being the minimum speed.

Thank you

You have to tick a box or somehing in the main overlay at the fan slider to apply your custom settings. :)

You cant go lower than 25% in the custom fan curve menu? That's new to me. Maybe you dont got the newest version...im pretty sure that i was able to go below 25%. Since im not at home i cant check it right now.
And dont set the fans at 100% if you hit 60C its way too much for that temperature and unnecessary noise. You can push them to 100% at 80C or even something like 82C. As long as you dont go higher than 83-84C everything is fine.

Well, I can go lower in the custom fan curve menu but the actual overlay has it set to 25% fan speed minimum for some reason and this seems to keep it at a constant speed.

Didnt know this too after using Afterburner for the first time.
