G75 VX Fan Speed software?

[B-RAD]

I have had my laptop for 2 years now and have never had a problem with it even getting warm let alone hot. I just started having problems with my display drivers not responding and then recovering. I think I narrowed it down to unusualy warm air coming from the right fan vent on the back of the laptop ( left fan vent if you face the back of the pc ). I am not %100 positive this is the cause but It has never been this way until now. Is there any free fan rpm control I can download to extend the life of my slowly dying display adapter. I have a Rog G75 VX with win 7 ultimate 64 bit OS. this info or any other to help this problem would be nice please. I have looked through the search and have not found any results for this specific machine and fan speed control . Sorry if my question sounds too minute for anyone to answer I am new to this but very eager and willing to learn. Everyone has to start somewhere and there is only one way to learn. Thanx all in advance

I don't know what your manufacture recommends but IC Diamond specifically states not to spread it out but to use Pea size ball in the middle of he CPU GPU. they state that due to the viscosity of there product spreading can leave air pockets.

I just did a desktop with IC Diamond and did it just the same way this video did and my temps are in the 20c's idle

I did repast both my cpu and gpu with the antec formula7 nano diamond paste. It did drop the temp but barely. Everything went fairly smoothly I was surprised at how sloppy the old paste had been applied. If you can think of what else it might be I am all ears. I did find someone else with the exact same problem maybe they will have better luck finding the problem. Thanks again for your time.

Also I did use the drop method after seeing the paste was not very thick as I thought anything called paste would be (LOL) . I am confident I did everything right and did not get it to thick or not enough. I don't know where to go from here Other than the fact I don't feel like my fans are coming on as much as they should. At temps this high I would think the (SMART) program they run from would have them both full blast all the time. It even seems like my gpu fan (right if facing the screen) is not coming on everytime I attempt to run it. They both do work and have come on but I have never seen them over 2000 rpm or both run at the same time. I dont think the fans themselves are bad I think it might be a software problem but have no clue how to check or fix this. There is another member on here who had the same problem a couple months ago so I sent him a pm but have not heard back from him. He replaced both fans on his with no results so I don't want to waste money trying that.

I will again recommend you install Hwifo64, run the sensor and report back what your CPU and GPU Loads Temps and Fan Speeds are. Asus doesn't use paste they use pads.
Well the fans are controlled but the Motherboard IE BIOS/UEFI as far as I know Asus does not allow fan control in any of their notebooks. So there is no software.
You say the paste you used was of thin consistency? The IC Diamond that I used is very thick and hard to get out of the syringe. Speed Fan I don't think accurately reads your fan speeds Hwinfo64 will and allow you to log your fan profile over a period of time. Your fans should Idle at around 800 and max out at around 3600 at least that's what the VW does. Check out the IC Diamond link. What you said about yours being "not very thick" I suspect that perhaps it has separated the carrier from the diamond compound and all you got between your CPU GPU and heat sinks is the carrier??

Ok sorry I did not note that I did take your advice and dwnld Hwifo64. The temps, fan rpm , etc. were about the same as speed fan but I did go ahead and get Hwinfo64 as per your suggestion. Witch using this has just confused my thoughts even more. The fans don't seem to follow any type of protocol all the time from what I have seen. They normally alternate at idle but not always. Once one shuts off the other comes on regardless of temp and there is never a huge difference in rpm they seem to stay close to 2000 rpm. I have seen them both on at idle once. Once under a load they still alternate regardless of temp but then both stay on at the same time more frequently still at the same rpm. Almost as if its a personality disorder instead of tech (lol). Yesterday after observing its strange behaviors it dropped temps and ran just fine without a problem. Today when I started it up the problems were back for a short time and now they are gone. At any rate my CPU fan when running is at 2017 rpm, load is 2.5%, and temp is 35 deg Celsius. The GPU fan when running rpm is 2007 rpm, load is 3%, and temp is at 36 deg Celsius. I listed temps in Celsius because more people seem to use this temp unit. I think these are normal readings except for the fans rpm. I guess I will have to see how it acts and post my readings when it starts acting up again? As for the paste being thin Its consistency reminds me of a thin tooth paste. The only reason I said that was from seeing other vids where the paste they used looked more putty like than paste. Also you said Asus does not use paste?? Does this mean I bought a refurbished laptop from best buy at a New pc price?? They sold it as new but there is no doubt it was pasted. I will try to keep a closer eye on the temps, loads and fan rpm today. Incase Maybee I am going crazy from not being able to pin point the problem and my minds playing horrible tricks on me with the fan rpm's . Thank you again

I don't know if you got a referb or not. lots of manufacture use pads there are consistent in thickness and more reliable in a factor line. So they work and hold up good. the ones that don't end up here. Your Idle temps look good. But if your temps go up and the fan only goes to 2000 RPM you would have a motherboard problems. I don't know what BB does with there notebooks. I do know if you buy from a custom dealer they repaste for you with IC Diamond. Best Buy usually puts in less RAM cheaper screens and cheaper slower hard drives.
Yes you can leave the Hwinfo64 Sensors running for quick look reference you can also set it to create a log file that you run over a period of time.
