ASUS ROG gl702vm Fans always max speed even when IDLE

[peyotor]

Hello
I have a GL703GE and the same issue for a long time
Three days ago i have installed Armoury Crate and set both fans in silent mode
The problem is gone..
Will post later to update if it is sustainable
Cheers from France

EDIT : after 2 days of silence, the GPU fan is coming back to maximum speed and noise...

Yeah, that seems to be the same thing I'm dealing with... I get some peace for a short time, then its trying to take off.

Is anybody else's fan perfectly fine while actually gaming? If I play a game, the GPU gets hot and then the fans act just like they're supposed to (well, for the most part). I can get nice quiet gaming, but loud and obnoxious low energy internet browsing.

I had the fan problem for years with my GL703GE. I even ordered a new fan assembly but never put it in because the problem would come and go.
Fans go on to turbo mode when rebooting, then off after awhile, then on again.

I have the latest firmware, Armoury Crap, BIOS, etc.

It drives me nuts when the fans come on, I can't even think straight when it acts up. Just stumbled on to the fix of moving the wire away from the small chip assembly unit. I just moved the fan wire assembly over that cap and taped it down with some electrical tape. Problem gone.

I thought it was a BS fix and had little faith it would fix it, but it did. So thanks OP and everyone else. Now I can live.

Hello brother,
my CPU fan of ASUS ROG GL503ge has the same problem. I am now fed up with my notebook. Would you please elaborate on the step you have taken? Which "small chip assembly" is that actually? And what exactly " over that cap" did you mean?
