Hello JCE-Miner, can you please look into temperature/fan monitoring? It does not work for me at all. Temp and fan are always zero...
I'm using 18.6.1 driver version. Windows 10 1709 and 1803.
Miner version 0.33b6 (tried previous versions - same result).
Cards are different - mix of RX470/RX480/RX570/RX580 - Asus and Powercolor.
This is reproduced on all my rigs with different hardware and even platform (intel and amd).

After playing with settings a lot seems that setting fanmin 30, fanmax 100, tt 50 did the trick. Still not obvious and unpredictable though. At least fixed fan speed still not working.
This is for ROG cards with 0db function. Non-ROG Strix RX470, Strix RX570, RX480 work as expected.

Update: trick did not work. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I want to keep coolers running at minimal set speed (30% for example) even if GPU is colder than -tt specified. How should I set it up?

To be honest - I tried claymore and it handles these cards even worse - coolers always start running at 100% when -tt condition is matched.

Version 3.0c. Fan control seems not to be working properly.
Environment:
Clean installation Windows 10 (1709), no updates.
Drivers - latest (18.6.1)
Card: single Asus ROG Strix RX580 O8G (stock bios, only timings modified)
No any additional software than can interfere with fan control is installed (like Afterburner etc.)

-fanmin 50
-fanmax 100
-tt 55

When miner starts - fans are initially stopped. When temperature rises to 50 and above - fans start working on max speed (maybe not max but high enough). In a few seconds temperature drops below 50 and fans begin to slowdown and finally stop. In a few seconds the sequence repeats.

Tried setting -tt -50 to force constant fan speed - not working.

At the same time it works on Asus Strix RX570 more or less properly. At least asjusts fan speed to keep temperature set by -tt.
I have compared bios bios fan settings for these two cards - they are identical.
It is incompatibility with this particular card or I am missing something?

Thank you for reporting this. We have ASUS Strix RX480 and the fan control works fine on them. Try to set only -fanmax and -tt (without -fanmin).
