Hi all,

it will be released a new Bios update to reduce the Fan noise issue in the GK3V?
Regards.

Fan control is very poorly managed on GK3V, I don't expect any good from AcePc on this.

I ordered a new Noctua fan to replace the original one, I will see if it helps.

It is recommended to add heat-dissipating silica gel to the CPU to effectively dissipate the heat of the CPU and reduce the fan speed.

Thanks for that tip. Can you provide us some product reference (Amazon or just brand/model) ?

In this post : https://www.iacepc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3503#p3503

they talk about AiOLOS thermal pads. 10mm x 10mm ?

Search for thermal grease on Amazon, basically around $5-10

In case it might help regarding the CPU temperature...

Thank you for suggestion.

I had read the articles, but I was hoping for an update of the bios for the possible solution
