Malcolm900 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Regarding the AXi860 fan control via the corsair link software, what part of the fan does this allow you to control? Can it be used to turn the fan off? Or set a fixed speed for the fan's RPM across all PSU loads? Does the fan by default stay off until 20% load? can this be changed to a deferent amount? How many different fan control options are there available? How many ways can the fan be controlled using the corsair link software? Can the PSU be connected to a link commander instead of using the USB device that comes with the PSU? Would it be possible to keep the PSU fan silent up to full load? Using the corsair link software?

Yes it can Does the fan by default stay off until 20% load? can this be changed to a deferent amount? No..its 40% load or about 49c temp before the fan will kick on . It may also be any combination of the two depending on system specs and how cool your case is. How many different fan control options are there available?

You can connect it to the comander if you wish as well. However, there is no way i would suggest leaving the fan off up until full load. You have a good chance of over heating the PSU. HOWEVER, there is one exception to this. Some systems depending on specs won't see 40% load or 49c. So in those systems the fans would never come on anyway. My suggestion is to just install it and load your system and see what points the fan starts if at all and then tailor your fan curve from there..
