GTX Titan V Fan RPM not running 100% on GPU 100% load

HI

I have a Computer Running 4 nvidia titan v graphic cards in NON sli.

These cards are NOT in sli

The Specs are:
- Asus x99-e w.s. bios rev 3601
- Intel I7-6850K
- 64GB ram
- 1TB Samsung SSD
- 4xGtx titan V. (CPUz says rev A1)
GPU driver version is 391.01

NO OVERCLOCKING ON ANYTHING.

Supermicro CSE-747BTQ-R1K628 chassis. It has rear
two 5K RPM fans helping with venting as well. (on side note I have all the internal fans as well the 2 rear exaust fans all set to maximum all the time, and yes it sounds like a jet engine LOL)

The room I am in is not air conditioned.

I'm using Windows 10 Pro right now to test. I know I can only test just 1 GPU at a time with Windows due to non sli.

I have a fresh install of Windows 10 v1709 installed, all up to date.

I have the following installed applications for testing and monitoring.

GPU Stress testing is Furmark
MSI Afterburner
Hwinfo
GPUz
CPUz

With HWinfo monitoring sensors only, and msi afterburner has a gpu monitoring as well.

So the issue happens when I put furmark to full gpu stress test, the temps go right up to about 83c on full load on the 1 GPU card. Yet the fan RPM is only at 2383rpm.

If I use MSI after burner to manually set the fan to 100%, the RPM now sits around 3950rpm and temp drops to 71c.

Why when the GPU is on full load, isn't the GPU fan as well on full RPM?

Thank you.

Stock configuration does not ramp up to 100% RPM under full load. Most companies, including Nvidia, only set the fan curve to as fast as it needs to keep the card from going into unsafe temperature ranges (85-90C). This is due mostly to keeping acceptable noise levels as well as keeping the fan bearing from going out early in its lifespan.

You have to use MSI Afterburner to set a curve to crank the fans as the easiest method of fixing it.

If it happens only on 1 card it’s probably faulty. If it happens on all of them I don’t know really. Maybe a psu bug.
I had in the past a triple 1050 (without sli) for a YouTube video. But I also had some problems. First the cards never could run at 100% load for some reason (it wasn’t the psu btw)
Second I also had similar cooling problem.
The same story with my old pc with Radeon 480 crossfire. I think when use multiple gpu’s you always get some kind of trouble. Why do you have 4 titans anyways? And could you tell me your frame rate in some games (doesn’t matter which ones) and I suppose 4K. I am just curious. Now I have a 8600k with 1080 ti

I'm not gaming what so ever.

Its a customer computer they are going to use linux and for what I don't know.

My plan was to keep the cards as cool as possible. I wish nvidia would make bios for this that would allow for 100% rpm on fan when at 100% gpu usage.

Not to mention, a colder gpu would probably make for a longer lasting gpu? no?
