Hi guys,

As the title says, I just bought a new cooler (Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO -). I've read reviews that it's very loud but does the job. It's actually very low and I've noticed it on speedfan, it runs at 2k RPM which is the max. I've managed to lower the speed to 65-75% ( it was 100%). I was wondering if there's a way that it wouldn't always stay on max speed. My mobo is: z77a-g45

Right now, it's at 75% with a game on and its CPU reach 49C.. Idle is under 40C.

Thank you
 
Solution
Get into the bios and set the CPU multiplier to auto or check the other parameters, which are not auto. If you can't find it, reset the bios by loading the standard bios parameters

I've tried to set it to standard and put the wire back to CPU fan and nothing changed unfortunately. Yes by default it's on OC mode, no idea why

The default setting actually gave me that ( Pressing F6 ). I'll check it out about the CPU multiplier
