*That’s not my terminal output btw, so don’t strain your eyes trying to read it, lol. It is the fancontrol tool that I used though.
After installing Pop OS, my fans have been running super high, and I had no idea why that changed. My fan curves in my BIOS haven’t changed (I even lowered it to “silent” mode), and my temps are low. After a long time messing around with the fancontrol tool, I somehow made it worse, so I uninstalled fancontrol and am just dealing with it. I think it must have been my Corsair software on windows that was keeping my fans running at reasonable speeds before, and without it, it reverts back to my BIOS controls. Oh well, it’s not that big of a deal, but it did inspire me to make a meme out of it.
It depends on your BIOS, but most motherboards have some way to manage your fans.
For example, mine looks similar to this screenshot. You just set the curves how you want based on temp:
ayyy, that’s what my Strix X99 UEFI looks like
