My GPU fan is directly connected to PSU by molex cable. No curve of any sort is possible
Why? I hate the fan noise pitch-shifts. It works at good temps thanks to my custom cooling (repurposed old CPU cooler)

I don't really see the point of changing the default, it's passive most of the time because it rarely goes over 50°C and even when it does I don't hear it I used to on some of my older card because they had really shit default, I'll probably reconsider that if I ever OC it harder than the mild one I'm running

what games can you play in 4k with an RX 570?
I got the 2700 non-x processor, but it turbos up to about 4GHz in most of the games I play. Does the 1700 turbo up like that? If it does I could have saved like $50 on that.

My R9 290 died in the middle of the crypto bubble and it was literally the only fucking thing in stock on Amazon that would arrive before a project deadline.
