Question Lack of silent mode

I have got a custom fan curve installed on MSI afterburner and my GPU fan refuses to go below 44% and it is causing my pc to get unnecessarily loud. Whatever I do the fan speed will not go down, despite on the fan curve for the temperatures it is running at it should be at <10%. I have contacted MSI support and they have told me 'I'm sorry for your graphics card has no silence function, and the fan speed can't be below 44%.' I was just wondering if there is a way to change the minimum fan speed in the bios similarly to how they have in this video. I own an MSI GTX 1660 Ventus XS OC.

In advance, I thank you for any replies.

Ryan.

Which version of MSI's afterburner are you working with? If you're seeing that the fan curve's(sans Auto ad a custom profile) don't change it to below 44% then it's possible that it's locked within VBIOS. What sort of temps are you dealing with when idling?

Mind sharing the specs to your build, like so:

Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
