So i have the mentioned Motherboard and i have some problems with either the mobo or fans.

what happends is that i try to plug in the Fans to the mobo but when i go to the AI Suite it shows compleatly wrong RPM, like 0rpm on chassie fan 1 when having the Corsair (AF?) 140mm fans on there, but if i put an stock other fans on then the RPM is changes like Chassie fan 2 does. When i put the on any other fan header it atleast shows an rpm (i think it's 1100rm-1400rpm or something but not sure) Now the it does show correct RPM if i use them on the CPU header.

Also, i had to buy a Fan splitter which splitts from one header to 4 and got a 2 pin molex aswell as one head that goes into the mobo. i got it on either chassie fan 2 or 3.

now chassie fan 2 bounces, sometimes it shows around 320-330 RPM, but the bounces up to 1325 RPM for a second, then down. Now i have cranked up all fans and pump to max RPM and i only have 1300-1400RPM fans.

and chassie fan 3, says it is disabled (gray letters instead of white) and says 0 RPM, but all of my fans are running smooth

i got the Radiator fans (push pull) connected to the Chassie fan 1 and 2, and the Splitter too 3.

When i disable all the Chassie fans, 1 and 3 goes max RPM and the letters goes red and warnings pup up saying 0RPM on Cha-1 and Cha-2. When i set them to any mode (silent, normal, Turbo or User) they go back to the description above. (Cha-3 still hasen't "moved" or turned red when disabled).

help?
