I want to use the Asus AI Suite 3.0 for regular fan control. I have 3 fans and 2 more that are built into the motherboard. Now as I understand that Bios fan control, AI Suite 3.0 and Corsair, will all try to adjust the fans, based on their settings. I need the bios to completely stop controlling the fans so that I can use the AI Suite 3.0 to control the fans. The corsair is the one that controls the h100i already, I set the speed to max in AI Suite 3.0 for the CPU fan, in turn, it gives it max voltage and the Corsair software does the rest. I'm a bit lost here. Since I can't seem to control two of the fans. They show up in the AI Suite 3.0, but don't give me the option to change their speed. All of these fans are 3 pins.

The Asus AI fan control replaces whatever the BIOS fan control was doing.

Can't control some fans?

If I read this correctly, these are CASE FANS that you attached to the motherboard?

Are these fans even capable of speed control?
(if they aren't they may say 1000RPM +/- 10%. If they are capable they would say something like "500RPM to 1800RPM" range).

Look up the case (if the fans came with the case) or fan model to see whether they are variable, or non-variable fans.

Some boards don't support 3-pin, but most support 3-pin and 4-pin so I doubt that's the issue.

You were right. Damn it. I guess I'll slap them on a Molex to the case fan speed adapter. Thank you.

Wait. Back to the same question. Just realized that my rear fan is the same one. But I can actually control it. It goes down to the spec of 800 +/-200RPM 1000 +/- 10%. Just tried it. Dropped it all the way down and it's at 766 ~ range. Is it because it's hooked up to the ASST Fan 1 opposed to the other 2, which are on Cha_Fan 3 and 4?
