Hello, i currently have a problem with my AIO refusing to do as its told.

1. Cannot control rad fans that are connected through spliter they will not lower rpm at all
2 x 3-pin fans are connected and the 3-pin from the pump is connected to Cpu_Fan Header.

2. 4 x 3-pin fans connected via corsair commander pro and controlled via corsair link will lower there rpm, but will not stick to fan curves tested via setting custom curves and runing Uni Heaven
fans just sit at same rpm and do not increase in speed regardless of cpu temps ,so the only way is to set them at a fixed percent or rpm and use different profiles one for idle other for cooling

The Corsair H110i GTX system comes with two model SP140L PWM fans, according to the web page. That system is designed to use 4-pin PWM-type fans on the radiator. You tell us you have 3-pin fans there. Any 3-pin fan plugged into a supply that uses the PWM Mode to control its fans' speeds will always run full speed, and that's what you observe. You will need to change the rad fans to the 4-pin type, like the ones that came with your system.

Regarding your case fan speeds, you may not be looking at the right data. I gather that your case fans all are plugged into the Corsair Commander Pro fan ports, and you are using Corsair Link to control them that way. This means that the mobo has NO information on the speed of those fans. The ONLY way...

This means that the mobo has NO information on the speed of those fans. The ONLY way to see their speeds is within Corsair Link's screens. But you are trying to use a third party tool, Heaven from Unigen, to "see" those fan speeds. My bet is that this tool can only show you the speeds reported to the MOTHERBOARD headers, and you do NOT have any fans connected there to provide speed readings! To determine what speeds your case fans are running under different conditions, look in Corsair Link.
