Created three profiles for the X570 chipset fan by Gigabyte, to avoid temperature and loudness problems.
The new AMD Ryzen 3000 processors they are a great solution in terms of quality / price. As with the Ryzen 1000, these processors arrive with premature BIOSes and other problems. This prevents these processors from offering their full potential, which, although it is hinted, is limited by these problems. Gigabyte is the motherboard manufacturer that works the hardest to correct all of these problems.
Gigabyte has released a new BIOS for X570 motherboards. This new BIOS adds special features for chipset fan management. The mission of this new BIOS is that the chipset works at optimal temperatures. We must remember that the X570 motherboards on the chipset carry a fan due to PCIe 4.0.
Gigabyte X570 motherboards BIOS update
All manufacturers have been forced to add a fan due to the integration of PCIe 4.0 in the new chipset. Even AMD is preventing manufacturers from offering PCIe 4.0 support on pre-X570 chipsets. This is because there is a great risk of the chipset, motherboard or even the chipset getting burned.
The new BIOS from Gigabyte, to improve the fan 'nuisance' in the chipset has created three profiles. Specifically, the 'silence', 'balanced' and performance 'modes have been developed.
These profiles do not affect the chipset in the least, but they are there to avoid damaging it. It seeks to control it to the maximum and seek a balance between temperatures and working speed. Keep in mind that such small fans are often annoying.
ASRock allows these settings, but manually from the BIOS. ASRock's X570 Taichi allows the fan to reach 6 RPM, which is a very annoying noise level. Gigabyte prefers to automate it and even control it through software from Windows. The company will allow us to control the RPM of the fan from our operating system without having to go to the BIOS.
