    Hello.

    I have a RX6400 in a little box behind the tv meant for light gaming. A great little inexpensive setup. For the kids. Cough.... cough.... For the kids!

    One minor thing I would like to fix. Noise. I don`t mind taking a FPS hit if I can keep the temperature to, lets say, 70 degrees or under and the fan does not go bonkers.

    Is there a app out there that would let me set my ideal MAX temp, then it would throttle the GPUs performance to match.

    Cheers

    The radeon driver software offers fan control options, under Performance > tuning if i recall correctly, you should be able to set up a custom fan control curve that prevents the fan from exceeding the desired noise level.

    alternatively msi afterburner also offers this feature.

    Hello. Thank you. RX6400 does not have those options in the driver softeware. I suspect it will be added later. But it is not these right now.

    I will try MSI afterburer.

    Sorry it appears the options are greyed out. IT seems that it is unsupported by the card.

    thats unfortunate, do you have access to the power limit slider?, you could use that as an alternative, by lowering the overall gpu power

    Saddly no. It is all greyed out. I guess I will just have to wait till AMD supports it officially. I mean it is not a train smash. Just just gets a bit noisy from time to time.

    You can do it without afterburner, just use more power tool and you have all of that in there.
