Hi,

I use w83627hf driver.
I agree, discarding some fan speed values is bad idea.
But, AFAIK there is no way to change base frequency for PWM output.
I use fancontrol to control fan speed, so I think I need to patch
fancontrol to make some duty cycle limits.

Anyway, problem is caused by low duty PWM and  I can't find good
solution for this hardware problem.

sensors output:
