asus h81m-r, constantly loud fan like high speed, its new psu, no control in bios?
In Bios in normal mode it says CHA_FAN N/A
Also ina dvanced monitor mode Chassis Fan is N/A, and only control I see is the lowest RMP for Chassis Fan, which is set to 600 RMP.

I just bought it, EZCOOL 550W

Bios is basically like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOki9wM8Zvc

Even if I change where it says CHA_FAN ... N/A to Silent, nothing happens. FAN is same loud, same speed.

do you mean the PSU fan?
if so, that PSU's fan cant be controlled. better PSUs are quieter and some have hybrid modes

Yes, the PSU Fan.

just the way it is. If you can take it back its prob best to do so.
Have a look at the stickied PSU thread on these forums for recommended PSUs in your budget.
i think ezcool is in the 'do not buy' category. bad psus can wreck your gear.

I dont think it can harm anything, its just made to run at high speed constantly probably.

not the fan, a cheap low quality psu failing and taking out other components with it.

Youre upset by the noise, its a cheapo psu that could fail tomorrow and i wouldn't be alone in suggesting to take it back if that option is available.

(For clarity, i was trying to be polite. I wouldnt touch that thing with a 1000ft pole. DANGER WILL ROBINSON!)

There are *still* EZBURN PSUs floating around? I hadn't come across one of those bits of garbage in years. Last time I saw one it had Canicon capacitors, which I think are filled with grape jelly, and looked like it had been soldered by someone having a seizure.

Return to sender, though if you can eat the money, I'd just recycle it and get it out of circulation.
