It always runs on the LOWEST RPM even if, like when im playing battlefield, my cpu gets REALLY hot like 70 degrees. I will place my full PC specs below.
NOTE: I can't seem to change my fan speed in my bios - my bios is pretty shitty with very limited options. SpeedFan isn't changing my CPU FAN at all no matter what settings and options i hit.
The ASUS motherboard I have comes up with 0 utilities to install on there site.

You could pull out the PWM specific wire.

you could plug it into a 3 pin header and plug the other fan into the CPU header.

70 degrees is still safe operating temperature though.
