Thank you so much for all the input, truly valuable! :)

Thanks for fast reply again! It is mounted as front intake ( several online reviewers showed that double fans did not do much in this small mini itx setup) So only one fan is used, the Notcua. https://pcpartpicker.com/b/2wjp99 is the build. But you'd still say it is normal? I mean, the other temps on GPU and CPU during idle and gaming now are really really good so i'f im in safe range, i'll ofc let the setup be as is. :) PS. current custom curve is 21C - 30% - 26C - 40% 30C 50% - 35/60 and 38/70 and 40/80

Update: All set it def works better in terms of db levels, not fans going up and down. Now it shows up in ICUE and I seem to be able to regulate it (Quiet, balanced and extreme for the Fan, for the pump, only quite and balanced can be set). Custom seem to work as well. I do wonder about my coolant temp. Ambient temp is 21C - 22C in my apt. On boot, Coolant is around 30, then goes up to 34-35 when browsing and having some monitors going. On Gaming it goes up to 40C, is this high/normal? My Ryzen 3700X temp goes from 42-45 on Idle or light browsing and never goes over 60C when gaming basically which i find good, but is the coolant temp alright?

This was really helpful advice, and very clearly explained, good analogy! :) I'll try this and get back, it would be really nice to let the fans not react to the temp spikes with the 3700X as they currently do.

First-time poster, and recently completed my Mini-itx build which in basically every aspect delivers :biggrin: But I'm having some questions hopefully someone in here can help me figure out or clarify. Currently, I have good temps avg 44 in Idle and 65-72 during heavy load (gaming). My setup is a single Noctua A12x25 PWM 60.1 CFM 120 mm that I put on the radiator in pull and a Noctua A9x14 29.72 CFM 92 mm case fan for enhancing exhaust. So far, so good. Currently, I've set my fan curves in BIOS and I could tweak them and try out different setting but when using ICUE, my fan shows 0 RPM Coolant on Idle was around 31-ish, but no matter how I tried setting the fan curves there to align with coolant temp, worked. I currently have tried Corsair Link as well where I can see my fans are at quite high RPM in idle and the third fan reading I would guess is the pump reading(?) MB Fan#1 avg 1300RPM #2 1400RPM #3 700RPM Will only use the BIOS and let the fans read the CPU temp have any adverse effect on the H80 or my system? Is there any way to truly configure the fan curves in ICUE or Link? No mode i try in either give any difference in RPM:s. Sorry for long post but would truly appreciate some input! :o:
