So I have an MSI Ventus 3x RTX 3070 and I was hoping to change the fan speed with Afterburner. In the software, I made sure that "Enable user-defined software fan control" was checked and went to change the fan speed to 60% but every time I click apply, the slider goes from 60 ALL the way down to 30. I repeat it again, the slider doesn't go down but the fan speed doesn't change. I changed the fan curve to something more aggressive, something that I like, mainly I just want to have my GPU at a solid 60% fan speed. Does it have to do with the fact that I have MSI Dragon Center, or is there some kind of software interfering with it? Is it the BIOS? Please help.
