Thank you for choosing the S3 Turbo Module.

This module extends the cooling capacity of the Accelero S3 significantly and yet keeps the noise level virtually silent.

Set the fan control curve by software

Nvidia and AMD graphics cards come with a fan speed controller, which is not necessarily programmed according to your preference and focuses on holding the GPU temperature between 85 and 95°C.Please download and install the fan controller softwareMSI Afterburner (https://gaming.msi.com/features/afterburner)

1. Please activate “Startup” and click on Advance options button

2. Create a fan control curve by putting control points.Be aware that Nvidia's fan controller does no longer work with PWM values but fixed fan speeds. Thus 30%~1050 RPM, 40%~1400 RPM, 50%~1900 RPM, 60%~2400 RPM; no matter whether you use a 40mm fan which can do 10,000 RPM max or a 140mm fan which can go only up to 1400 RPM. In the later case the fan runs at the 40% setting already at full speed.
