Hi,
I recently finished my build, which includes Gigabyte z170 HD3 and 4x 3pin fans. The MB has 1x4pin CPU fan; 2x4pin Sys_fan 1/2 and 1x3pin Sys_fan 3, so I use Y-splitters on headers 1 and 2.
In Bios I can set the fan curve (normal, silent, full speed, manual), but I think it's based on temps from sensors on the MB, not the CPU sensor, because in HWMonitor when stress-testing with Aida64 the 4 case fans' RPM remain the same as while idling.
So is there a way to make case fans (and their curve) follow CPU temps instead of MB? Right now there's no point in that curve, because MB temps barely change and fans don't speed up, only the CPU fan does.
I tried SpeedFan, but my fans don't show up there (or I can't find them) and the other option I'm considering is the fan headers on my Graphics (Strix 1080). That way I can at least control them based on GPU temps, but 1) I prefer CPU and 2) More visible cables...
Thanks!
