Noctua IndustrialPPC and Speedfan

[Xezema]

Hey folks, I recently bought a couple of Noctua NF-A14 IndustrialPPC fans, and would like to control them with SpeedFan. I have them set to the lowest PWM value in the BIOS but that still puts them at around 1000rpm. I downloaded SpeedFan and opened it up to find everything blank, and I mean everything, even going into Configure>Advanced>Chip showed no useable bus for PWM, which I thought was strange. I'm using a Gigabyte GA-Z170x-Gaming 5 motherboard, and an Intel 6700K processor. Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks in advance,

they are PWM? and which is the lowest RPM they run? some of them have high Minimum RPM.

Use the fan speed resistor that is bundled,should be able to solve the rest of the problems

@tom_spinach, they are PWM, and the lowest RPM is 500
@AppleGwava They didn't come with the resistor cable and its not compatible with these fans according to Noctua

you tried with Fan Xpert 3 from asus?

I haven't, will it work for a Gigabyte motherboard?

 

[tom_spinach]

ah Gigabyte, sorry my bad, I dont know if it works, did you try easytune smartfan?

Seems to have worked like a charm, not the best software I've ever used, throws out a lot of 'Driver fails to run to failure' errors, whatever that means, but that doesn't seem to affect anything. Anyway, thanks for the help.
