Naah as tim said you just have to run fancontrol or use Raptor's OpenBMC port for the KGPE-D16/KCMA-D8 boards.<br>
<br>
Additionally I added this info to the wiki many months ago, as I too was bothered by the fan speed when I first installed coreboot years ago and assumed something was broken to which tim explained it for me too :D<br>
