Hello!
I have 2 140mm 3pin fans on my PC case but i cant seem to make them work like they supposed to. On old Gigabyte motherboard i had these same fans for some time and it regulated fan speeds perfectly.
Now i bought (actually, a year back) new motherboard and other components. Case and fans i reused. Im not sure what i do wrong with my new board but it is not slowing down 2 system fans at all. They seem to be at full speed or somewhere close to it - at least it is how it sounds, very loud. I have them unplugged since i couldnt stand the noise.
Actually, third fan, the one that came with case, runs about 50% constantly and it is quiet enough and i can regulate it in bios and with MSI Control center - this one is 3 pin fan and it sits in 4 pin Sysfan_1 slot on motherboard.
Other 2 (front and side) are 3 pin fans and sit in 3 pin slots (Sysfan_2 and Sysfan_3) but are running full speed and as i found out, they are not even being detected by bios, Aida64 or Speedfan. Im lost, how can i make my system cool but quiet.
My motherboard is MSI H87-G41 PC Mate

The motherboard manual says: pins support Smart Fan Control with linear mode... whatever it means.
Is it possible that my new board lacks the feature to get any info or control through 3 pin fan slots? My last one was about the same price range.
I read that one of my solutions may be to buy fan splitter and make all my fans run through Sysfan_1 that i can manually put to 50% (weirdly not allowing me to go lower than that) but it would be great if i could get them to work like they use to - bios would auto-tune speeds as needed.
Help guys, im lost...
