Hi all, run into some issues regarding controlling my fan speeds.
I have recently rebuilt my pc into a new case and the fan setup is now different.
I have a Thermaltake Commander FP PWM 10 Port Fan Splitter Hub, with 6 Corsair ML120 Pros connected.
My motherboard is an Asus Maximus Impact VII and the only way i seem to be able to control these fans is if I use the CPU fan header, trouble is I also have a PWM pump that I seem to only be able to control in this header too, otherwise it runs at full speed (the noise is unbearable)
I have tried each device in both into number 1, number 2 and number 3 Chassis Fan Headers, all are the same. The pumps or the fans run at 100% and even though I can adjust the fan curve in my bios nothing seems to change.
In my previous build i only had 3 fans and was able to control them on the CHA headers with no issues.
If you need more info please let me know, I am hoping to resolve this issue without having the strip the entire build (its somewhat a complex SFF)
Thanks,
Nayth

after looking in the mobo manual it seems only the cpu header has a pwm pin, the other 3 are just 5v.
I understand that is what is happening now but it doesnt help me too much. I'll likely plug the fan hub back into the cpu header to avoid dismantling my rig.
Now i need to know ia there a way i can control the pwm in my pumps externally? i. e a pcb with a dial or knob?
