Describe the bug
Controlling my AMD Radeon 7900 XT fans has a small issue.
I have to manually go in, and set the curve the graphics card is looking at, to something else, and then back to my prefered graph, before it'll work.
If i don't do this, its built in (amd driver controlled?) fan curve will be running.
this has to be manually done every single time i turn on the pc, while fan control is starting up with windows, while 'force apply' is enabled.
my other (case) fans work just fine, no issues there.

i have recorded a video within windows though im unsure if it reveals the issue properly:

when i boot up a game and my graphics card fans starts blasting, it imminently becomes apparent that there's an issue with the controlling of the fan. the 'force apply' i have set on my GPU within fan control, doesn't force apply until i manually apply it.

Is there a log.txt file next to FanControl.exe with recent date entries?
No logs to be found as far as i can see. the open error log

Relevant hardware specs and setup
Motherboard: MSI Z370 Pro Gaming Carbon
CPU: Intel i7 8700K - With thermalright air cooler - not found within fan control at all
RAM: 32GB 3200 MHz
GPU: ASRock Radeon 7900 XT
Case fans: Some Corsair RGB fans of some sort

The video shows the fans running at 1800ish RPM while the graph itself say it should run at 0 rpm. as soon as i enable the 'flat' curve and reenable the graph i made, it goes to 0 rpm and starts following that curve, based on temp, as expected.

You should leave force apply off, it won't help you here. 0 RPM is the card own "intentions", FanControl can't force it.

See the AMD section here: https://getfancontrol.com/docs/

i had problems with the same thing at first but i turned off the zero rpm mode in the amd adrenaline software and it works fine now certain versions of the driver do act weird tho the plug in has to be used in some cases but i havent had any problems as of late aslong as every update i resetup fan control if i dont it may work it may not
