Hello,
I’m just getting started with BIOS and everything (previously used a Mac). I’m seeking advice on setting the best fan speeds in BIOS for balancing fan performance against CPU overclocking. Right now, my CPU runs at stock settings, and the fans are quite inconsistent—often reaching 2200 RPM when the CPU hits around 4.2 GHz. Ideally, I’d like a more stable operation around 4.01 GHz. I have three front panel case fans (120 mm each) and three radiator fans on top, plus an exhaust fan of 150 mm.

My system specs are:
Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix X399-E Gaming
CPU: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2920X 12-Core at 3.50 GHz
RAM: 32Gb – 2x G Skill F4-3000 C16-8 GISB
GPUs: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti (Gigabyte & MSI)
NVme Samsung SSD 970 PRO 512 GB
Cooling: Liquid AIO with a 360 mm radiator

If you can help me adjust the BIOS settings to achieve more consistent performance between fans and CPU speed, I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!

You can adjust the fan curve in the BIOS.
There seems to be a misunderstanding about dual GPU support.
Recent games do not currently allow for dual GPU configurations.

I rely on two GPUs in Blender Cycles for faster PNG exports. The Topaz Ai Gigapixel tool also benefits from dual GPUs for improved speed. These tools are essential for my workflow.
