SpeedFan doesn't recognize my fans.
I overcloaked my GTX 1060.
Is this overclocking safe? Should I adjust the core voltage? If yes, what should the new value be?

While keeping the factory BIOS active, you can confidently adjust the voltage and power limit sliders. Regarding the Speed Fan, compatibility with every motherboard isn't guaranteed—consider setting all fans through the BIOS.

I adjusted the cpu fan speed in bios but it didn't work. Other speeds changed. I can't change the voltage. Unlock voltage control is enabled.

I adjusted the CPU fan speed in BIOS but it didn't respond. Other settings changed as well. I can't modify the voltage. Unlock voltage control is now enabled. Some motherboards only support controlling 4-pin PWM fans, while those that allow 3-pin fans require you to specify the correct fan type (3-pin or "DC Mode"). Regarding your video card's voltage, you need one that doesn't permit software-based adjustments. On certain cards, it's a firmware restriction, and on others, it's a hardware limitation.

Never encountered SpeedFan before as it appears to search by address. You must configure the fans to particular controllers before using them through a controller. Review the other sections.

Should I adjust the memory clock with the Pascal card? It's currently at 0%. I switched the fan to silent, but it's still making noise. Could this be causing the airflow in the radiator or indicating a faulty fan? I have a Corsair H45 liquid cooler.

If you follow the instructions from Corsair to connect the CPU fan to the system fan header and the pump to the CPU_fan header, without managing the sys_fan, it will operate as a system fan. This means silent mode will keep it running at high speed. You should disable automated settings, manually adjust fan curves, or permanently set the pump to run directly from the PSU or another header.

I attempted to configure the settings but didn't find my mobile module on the list. I tried the latest version available, but it didn't work. What should I do? I also changed the silent fan speed in BIOS, but it's still running at high RPM.

You likely have a 3pin fan. Set the pump to cpu_fan. In BIOS and SpeedFan, adjust the cpu_fan header to 100% and keep it that way. Mount your CPU fan on a system header with three pins. In SpeedFan, locate the fan header and change the address to reference cpu_fan temperatures. You'll maintain normal voltage control, but it will use temperatures linked to the CPU.

where can i adjust the speed fan settings? i don't see my fans, but in bios it displays cpu fan speed, the first sys fan speed and the third sys fan speed. if i change the cpu fan speed, it reaches full speed and becomes extremely loud.
