Slope is traditional and intuitive linear fan speed curve. With newly added Stair non-linear mode, fan keeps at same speed between specified temperature interval.     Manual Input - For advanced users, we provide fan speed manual input for more precise control.     EZ Tuning - Use can place 4 EZ Tuning points at rough temperature/fan speed, and Smart Fan 6 can quickly generate a fan curve.     Fan curve profile - Fan curve profile can be saved in BIOS ROM, profile will be kept after updating BIOS. Fan Stop Achieve fan silence. With Fan Stop, map any fan to stop completely when temperatures drop below a specified threshold. Which fan stops, based on readings from which sensor, and at what temperature—all of it can be customized to your liking. CONNECTIVITY A high-end product needs to be future-proof so your system stays up-to-date with the latest technology.  X570S UD provides all next generation network, storage, and connectivity to keep you up to speed.
