    Hi,
    To make long story short, i need to turn my v3-571g(GT640m) 's fan at full speed for gaming.

    I tried with RW Everything program (in EC section), with prospective results, but here is what i found out:
    -setting 0xBD to FF (default:5B) sets fan to 100%, but it also causes massive fps ustability (from like 80 on default EC values, to 60-30, in bf3), which is not caused by throttling (checked frequencies in GPU-Z)

    I also tried to find offset that could let me set fan speed completly manually, but with no luck...

    If anyone knows anything on this topic i would really appreciate any help,
    I would rather keep off flashing bios, becouse i'm not really aware of the process of flashing/potencial risks/recovering, but i may consider it as a last resort... :(
