    Hello I own a AW17 from august 2014 :)
    I recently found Out My gpu temps were a bit high.. Peaked at 91c in furmark.
    Cpu was 86c using prime95 i think it was.

    I Then repasted with IC Diamond and gpu dropped to 80c and cpu to 70c :) so that was quite Nice and Worth the money :)
    But when running furmark and temp hitting 80c i believe the gpu fan wasnt at full speed. And Id like to see if i can lower the temp even More :)

    Also My 880m only running 836mhz in furmark? I think it should be 954mhz i know it has throttle issues but srsly? 836 the entire time from cold card to Hot...

    So Id like to know if its possible to make a custom fan profile somehow with some program?

    Have a good weekend,
    From Rasmus

    First!! Furmark is banned by VBIOS modders and Nvidia/Amd. You can/will kill your graphics with this Junkware!! And yeah, You can make custom fan profile with Hwinfo64. As well force the fans on fully speed if you run high load from Cpu/Gpu during long time.
