The fan works as it spins up for a few seconds when. It allows CPU fan control, but cuts power to GPU fans. I have a Alienware 18, have installed HWiNFO64 but cant seem to change the fan speed for the GPU fan. basically replicate what you see in this series.Ĭaution: A03 does not permit manual fan control. You download HWiNFO64 from this link, extract the contents to a new folder and launch the executable.įollow this series of photos to set things up.
Many of us are hoping and praying that it does. If your new 18 has A04, we don't know for sure if manual fan control works with HWiNFO64.
