System fans always at 100%

[Vritix]

Until today I realized my fans on my PC were at 100%, and before two weeks ago I didn't know a single thing about the parts inside a computer. My current PC was recommended by my cousin 3 years ago and I just followed what he said and didn't even check it out.

I am scared to touch anything in SpeedFan to slow down the fans, I don't want anything to overheat.

This is my PC currently:

Processor : AMD Quad-Core FX 4300
GPU : NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 2GB

Did you build or buy this pc ?

Are the fans plugged into fan headers on the MB, or are they wired directly to the power supply (e.g. with 4 pin molex connectors) ?

Can you hear the fans ? (if they make no noise, then run then at 100%).

A tool like HWMONITOR (google it) can tell you system temps so that (1) you will notice when you get enough dust in the case that things get hot and (2) you can turn down the fans and still see that the temps are fine.

Case fans that plug into the MB fan headers are usually controlled by the chipset drivers loaded for your MB from the MB maker's web site. Fans run 100% until you are far enough in windows boot to run the chipset driver fan control then the fans settle down to some 40% or so duty cycle until things get hot.

If you are at 100% all the time try reloading the chipset drivers for your PC.

I bought this PC from CyberpowerPC, and oh yes I can hear the fans, they are SOOO loud, they sound like a mini blow dryer.

Also how do I reload my chipset drivers?

I see, your CPU fan is 100% and there is no load on it, and the CPU temps are very low.

First go into BIOS. There is a setting that controls fans and overrides to run them at max. If you post a link to your PC's manual or give a model number someone might be able to find this for you, or you can get in there and look for it. Or if you find the MB make/model and post that the BIOS settings will be in the MB manual. This is a generic description, but it gives you a feel for how to find the controls:
"Use BIOS to access fan speed options.
+ Reboot your computer.
+ Wait for the message "Press [some key] to enter SETUP" on the screen when the computer begins to boot up. ...
+ Use the arrow keys on the keyboard to get to the BIOS setup menu called "Hardware monitor." ...
+Navigate to the option "CPU Fan" and press "Enter."

If you download and run CPU-z (google it) then go to the Motherboard tab you can see the MB maker and model number. Go to their site and download the drivers for that motherboard. Those plus the generic drivers from Win10 are the "chipset" drivers. You will not need to do anything for the windows ones. Here is an example of chipset drivers. DO NOT USE these, they are not for your PC, they are just to give you an example" https://us.msi.com/Motherboard/support/Z97-PC-Mate.html#down-driver&Win10 64

This is my motherboard https://us.msi.com/Motherboard/support/760GM-P34-FX.html#down-driver&Win10 64 and the only drivers there are for audio.

UPDATE:
I went into my BIOS and turned on CPU Smart Fan Target to 40c and the speed to 12.5% which seems to be working but on HWMonitor I am worried about TMPIN0 and TMPIN1 as they are kind of high and keep rising slowly.
