I want a greater degree of control over my cpu fan speed, but speedfan doesn't work on my particular motherboard. Any suggestions?

Oh my :shocked: !!! Hilarious :laugh: :laugh:

OP, I do not know of any other fan control software other than SpeedFan. There is the mCubed "T-Balancer" which is a hardware device that interfaces through Windows via several different software programs of your choice. I have never used one, but I read good things about it. Pricey though. Here is two links about them link>http://www.3dcool.com/product_info.php?cPath=111_112&products_id=1418

Did you try Q-Fan in the A8N-E BIOS? I know it's automatic with no manual control, but works for me.

Yeah, that's what I use presently, it just seems to me that the fan goes slower than it really needs to and doesn't get up as high as it can. I have it set to go to max at 51C, but it only goes at 700-800 rpm idle (~35C), and barely gets past 1400 at load (which is 47 - 48C). I would like it to go no less than 1000 rpm and to fully crank up at load.
