Hey guys,
I'm having a weird problem with my cooling. When my computer has been on for a while (like 3 hours), or has played heavy software, it seems like my cooling wants to go on a higher speed. The thing is, it always switches between low and high speed every few seconds, causing a bzzBZZbzzBZZbzzBZZ-sound, wich is very annoying. After it has been turned down for a while, the cooling acts normal again. Note that my computer isn't overclocked. I have no idea on where to find info about my cooling system etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Raps

your cooling as u call it would be the cpu fan or grfx card fan.. atitool will let u control the grfx card fan.. some other software the cpu fan..

the other option is to fit superior after market fans..

the fan speed is temp controled which is why things get noisy..

one (or some) of your fans are on automatic variable controllers.. just set every fan to a straight 12v or 5v line, and it wont fluctuate.

Do i have to do this manually? (hardware work) Or is there some software controlling this?

hardware will be the easiest.. just plug the fans into 3pin to 4pin molex adapters, or if they have the 4 pins, right into the PSU.
