Hi all,

A few days ago I got a new MSI Gaming laptop (model GV72 8RE-041NL). All seems to be working well except for one thing. When playing a game (like Minecraft with shaders) or doing other heavy duty work the fans are really extremely loud. This also happens almost immediatelly after the game starts working. It is as if the fans go from almost unnoticable to top speed. I have experimented with the Dragon App and tried to reduce the fan speed curve and while that seems to help slightly it is still way too loud. The noise levels are fine if the fan is around 2000-3500 rpm.

I installed SpeedFan but that's a rather complicated tool for me to use so I haven't gotten around to experimenting with that.

Are there other options to help with this? Any other people having some tips or advice on how I can fix this?

BTW, another slightly related question. I also tried asking this on the official MSI forums but I can't log in to them. I have an account and I can log in just fine on the main MSI page but once I go to the forum it always says 'Guest' and the login button just brings me to the main MSI page again where I'm already logged in.

Thanks for any help!

That may be so but I think my fans are blowing too strong for what is needed. Some research on google shows that this appears to be common with MSI that they let the fans blow out of proportion. So I'd like to find a tool to have more precise control over this

Hmmm...you want custom fan curve?
Laptops should come with certain software to control such stuffs. You don't have it?
There is no such settings in the dragon center?

All laptops from GV72 line are loud tho'.
3000 rpm @ 60'c and will go up to 5000 rpm.
