When I first booted my newly built pc, I noticed that the CPU fan was not spinning continuously, spinning and stopping repeatedly. I first suspected the problem might be caused by the fan. However, when plugging the CPU fan into the SYS Fan header and the rear fan into the CPU Fan header, both were spinning continuously. That made me think the problem might be the CPU Fan header's fourth pin, since the CPU fan has 4 pin connectors and the rear fan I used for the tests only has three.
Has anyone ever had a similar problem? I plan on contacting the motherboard manufacturer to ask for a warranty coverage on the product, but I wanted to make sure that the motherboard is indeed the problem so any insight and ideas are really appreciated.
The setup I'm using:
Motherboard - GIGABYTE B550M Aorus Elite
CPU - AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
CPU Fan - AMD Wraith Stealth
