[SOLVED] Cpu fan always running at max speed

Solution
You will have to search the BIOS for any possible fan tuning/temp curves/ behavior...

Or, default the BIOS to defaults, I'd be surprised if the 'auto' function was not best, assuming all chipset drivers are installed, which san also regulate or override normal behavior...

I have the same problem on my i5-4690 with ECS H81H3-MV mb, using stock cooler (4 pin) but fans kept spinning like crazy (3k rpm), temps were normal. Smart Fan was enabled by default, i didn't change anything, HWMonitor shows Fan Control at 0.0% (Fan Control 1), Fan Control 2 & 3 disabled, of course i plugged the 4 pin to CPU-FAN header. I tried using Cooler Master i30 (3 pin), same result. Of course it's not a problem when it's idle, but when under heavy load is what worries me the most. I had a very similar case on my old i5-2400, temps rose up to 85°C when gaming and my motherboard gave me warning beeps, the problem was solved by upgrading to i5-3470 with brand new motherboard, but in my current case i don't think i can afford new cpu or mb as i recently bought this i5-4690 + mb. This is so frustrating.
