5. Bedienungsanleitung
Once installed, the GAMDIAS Aeolus M2-1204R fan will begin operating when your computer is powered on. Its primary function is to provide airflow for cooling your PC components.
5.1 Lüftergeschwindigkeitssteuerung
If connected to a 4-pin PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) fan header on your motherboard, the fan speed can be controlled via your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or through compatible software provided by your motherboard manufacturer. This allows for dynamic adjustment of fan speed based on system temperature, optimizing for either performance or quiet operation.
5.2 RGB-Beleuchtungssteuerung
The RGB lighting of the Aeolus M2-1204R can be controlled in one of two ways, depending on your setup:
- Motherboard-Software: If connected to a compatible addressable RGB header on your motherboard, you can use your motherboard's RGB synchronization software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync) to customize lighting effects and colors.
- Dedicated Controller: If you are using a GAMDIAS RGB controller (often included with multi-fan packs or sold separately), the lighting can be controlled via the controller's buttons or remote control. Refer to the controller's specific manual for detailed instructions.
