Hi i have AN XFX RX480 RS 8GB and i set a custom fan curve using afterburner but when the gpu is at idle and afterburner saiys the fans are at 30% when i look at the gpu the fans are not actually moving. I tried setting it at a locked 30 % just to check but only one fan moves. Its at arround 40% that both fans kick in. Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I dont believe afterburner will work with our XFX Cards. The RS and GTR are non-reference, so they shouldn't be compatible with it. The cards themselves do not have a modifiable fancurve without making a custom bios profile. The cards will remain idle until 65'C is reached, then they will slowly turn on as per the 0-DB technology.
