Once air is cleaned (red/orange lights go out), fan speed remains high &amp; plasma wave still on. Is this normal? Speed has to be reset low w/remote?

If it's not set to auto then it will stay on the speed it is set to. When set to auto it will adjust the speed as needed.

Sorry to hear that. Contact the seller and send it back, especially if the fan doesn't come on. good luck

Make sure the fan is not blocked with dust and is working, Mine works fine after I removed the plug on the end and wired it directly to the outlet. I went through 3 of these in 6 months but removed the plug and it works like a champ.

Sorry for your problem but I can't be sure my experience will help you. Mine was direct-wired and burned out in a thunderstorm. Replaced it with a different version. Fan still works fine.

Hey Rob,I set the audio control to manual setting and I don't hear the fan noise in post production. In auto mode, it picks up Everything in my experience. Hope this helps.

Hi Mr. James. I just got home to check out your predicament, and I can say that I arrived at close to the same conclusion. I set my fan to manually run at max and there is a visual disconnect though the Precision X HUD. The meter says my fan is running at max, but the digital readout on PX says it's only at 80%. That's not exactly what you're reading (75%)...but it looks like the same issue. For comparison sake I took the other fan software and did the same thing to see if I noticed the same issue.... and I did. For some reason all the Fan software I use say the max is 80%. What I found out after looking into it more was that EVGA apparently puts a limit on the max speed you can run their fans using external controllers. I do not know if the card itself will push the fans above 80%, but it seems that when using other software, that is the max. ...even so. Whether your fan is running at a true 75% top speed or the actual max speed, I find that my fan on max keeps things cooled to about 40-44c...which is well below maximum temps. Hope that helps! (on a side note, I've read that you want to keep these cards at 70c or cooler in order not to lose any clock speed. Supposedly, once they hit 70c the card throttles back the clock until temps are below 70)

Mine did that initially. Up and down between 49 and 53 and the fan kicking in every couple of seconds. I raised the temperature to 55 and it stopped doing that.

Hello - I realize that you posted this comment some time ago, but I'm hoping you may be able to help me. I bought this fan a couple of months ago but only recently hired someone to install it while I was away on a trip. Turns out my 1948 house has the 2-wire electrical, so my contractor simply purchased a different fan. Now I can't return this one. To use it, what did you do? Did you purchase a different type of remote and if so, what kind? Thank you!

Yes, exact same problem on two fans. Had first one die first week, then a second one after a couple months. If you reverse the direction, the fans turn off for a few seconds, then reverse. If you adjust the speed without waiting for the fans to kick back on, something goes haywire, and it fries the fuse immediately. If you replace the fuse, the fan continues to run, won't turn off or respond to controls, and the fuse blows again. Their warranty service cannot replace the fan, because "They don't have stock"... "Call back in 4 months". If you have one of these fans, give the fan time between changing direction and changing speed. Both fans died in exactly the same way. The fan is great until it fries.

Mine makes no noise when the plasma wave part is on so I'm never sure if it's working! I think I would call the company and put this question to them. I called them once about something and they were prompt with their answers so might be worth a try. Sorry I can't help better than that. Mine only emits the whooshing noise of the fan and, again, I'm not even sure the Plasma part of it is working but it is cleaning the air where I need it so I haven't called the company to troubleshoot or verify. Good luck!

I have the same problem sometimes. I think that I turn it all the way clockwise then back all the way to the left or just turn it until the fans kick on. Is everything installed correctly? Won't hurt to double check and make sure the temp probe is secure.

No, I don't have that problem. I never noticed a fan running until I read this email. Now, I can hear a slight hum occasionally. But nothing you should ever notice. Yours is not right.

the fan just work under high performance (when a large amount of power is required).Don't worry about it..

My literature with the fan indicates 60%. Reality is that runs at a slow speed when it hits 60% and you have to toggle the wall switch to get max speed with the orange LED lit. I noticed it always comes on in humidity sense, blue led, mode when turned on from the long time powered off mode.
