MSI Katana GF66 - Incorrect fan speed and temps

[regaldude]

Here is the output from sudo isw -r 5 after Cooler Boost has been activated using the Fn key:

From the EC dump, I can also see that the battery threshold value is incorrect because I have personally set it to 50-60%

I am aware that there is an open issue regarding the battery threshold address

Yeah Katana's messed up, to be honest I have no idea how to fix this. Does fan control work as intended?

[regaldude]

I haven't done extensive experimentation but I can confirm that both CPU and GPU fans work at 100% via fan control.

I experimented using OpenFreezeCenter though since it was easier for me to change the fan curve values for testing.

[FaridZelli]

CPU and GPU fans work at 100% via fan control

To be clear I was referring to fan control on ISW, not MLFC. So both fans can be adjusted using ISW-Modern, right?

I experimented using OpenFreezeCenter

OFC uses ec_sys if I recall correctly, which is no longer present on any distro's stock kernel that I know of.
What distro are you using?

I am on PopOS 22.04
