Hi all,

Trying to figure out the fan setting here. Do I want the red owl highlighted or Off? Which one allows for the fans to stay off until 65 F? I just can't tell whether the feature is on or off currently. Does the software have to be running for this feature or is in the bios/hardware and already on? What about for OC mode, which way to tick the box for best performance? Thanks!

I'd show a screenshot but I don't see where to attach here.

GPU: Asus Strix R390 8GB Gaming edition

I know this is a bit old but I will answer because I had the same question!
I knew of the feature of the fans turning on just when they reached certain temperature but wanted to know a little bit more.

If you have the 0dB fan ON : It will turn on when the card reach a certain temperature ñ
0dB fan OFF: The fans will spin normally like any other card, it's incredibly quiet, like literally it doesn't sound loud (I have a GTX 1060 ).

NOTES: I noted that with 0dB off the temperatures of the card went down like (started at 44-45 and are right now at 39°) 5° Celcius (41° Farenheit) just on the desktop , maybe playing they will get down a little bit
