I posted this in the sgminer thread as well but didn't get a response:

Hello all. I recently did an xmr test run with sgminer-gm on a 5 rx470 rig, win7, 16.9.2, and everything works fine. When I switch back to wolf (xmr) or claymore (zcash), those miners no longer have control over fan speed. I also cannot use watttool or amd settings to control fan speeds. Has anyone else experienced this? I did a clean driver removal and reinstall but the fan speeds are still locked at the previous setting when I first ran sgminer-gm. Help would be greatly appreciated.

~~edit: I added auto-fan and temp-target to the conf file instead of a static fan speed and now it seems okay.~~

update: After switching back to claymore zec miner, there is still no fan control and the speeds are strange. The speeds are stuck at 40,40,65,65,50. Seems really odd.

update 1/1/2017: If I set the fan to a static speed on sgminer before opening claymore, the fans have a minimum speed from my sgminer config file, but claymore's miner and other utilities cannot modify the fan speed.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to re-enable fan control with mining software besides sgminer?

you use MSI Afterburner

Never tried it with Polaris cards. I'll look at it today.

Are you closing sgminer or any of the other miners that you are switching from/ to? Usually only one program can control the API at a time.

Yes, even after a reboot the issue persists.
