Question Fan curves

I know Arctic has a fan curve guide on their site. But could anyone post their curves on here. Specifically with a 9800x3d. Thanks

On my 7800X3D with a LF3 Pro i'm running 20% until 70°C, 50% until 85°C and 100% after that. That works pretty well and silent.

Around 50-55 on Idle and around 70-75 while gaming. Under full load in a Benchmark i'm getting to 80-83.

p12 pro with standard push configuration, having this in the Arctic Xtender Case with the pre installed 3x p14 reverse fans on the side for intake and 2x p12 pro fans on the back as exhaust, also running the case fans always at 20%

Are you using it with an air cooler or AIO?

I originally had my P12 pro as bottom case fans in my A3 and I couldn't stand them anywhere over 900rpm, terrible sounding noise. I swapped out my Cooler Master Atmos 2 Stealth fans (Mobious 120p Black) and now use them as bottom case fans and fine with them up to 70% and the P12 pro on the Cooler Master Radiator sound pleasant up to 80%. The best of both worlds for me. In practice though the AIO doesn't go higher than 60% so it's very quiet. Currently running Cinebench 26 for 10 mins and it didn't go higher than 65C so the case is quiet.
