Minimum FAN speed

Current minimum FAN speed is 23%, in my case with Sapphire 7900XTX that's more then 1000rpm wich is kinda too much! Gpu on idle is 26c or less. I can set 0rpm but then temperature is around 58c.
Is it possible to lower this 23% limit to atleast 12%. By default you can always set 23% as default, but allowing for lower.

Most cards have low hard limit, this means, you cant go lower. My RX480 had its minimum on 800rpm, even if I set 10% it wont work that way. 

Try MSI afterburner to check if you can go lower.

Nah AB also goes to 23% and next lower is 0% it's kinda read from driver.

This may or may not make you feel better.

“the rule of thumb is that every 10°C increase in temperature reduces component life by half”

I'm not sure I believe that, half seems a little much but I do know it has some effect.
