How do you control CPU fans, my computer sounds like a jet engine!

in bios I can only control one of the 3 fans (and the CPU fans), speed-fan doesn't make a difference (or maybe I don't know how to apply changes) I tired putting resistors on my CPU fan, didn't help, my GPU uses zero razor (so it's not spinning, I checked) i tried plugging one case fan inside the CPU socet but the other fans are running loud and I cant stop them , can anyone help?

 

it may be because of drivers, because I cant use my app because it's keep saying please update your DVI driver, I know it doesnt affect fans but I amy be missing some other drivers.

Do your fans have three or four pin connectors? Fans with three pin connectors don't have variable speed.

They do, only with DC voltage and not with duty cycle.

Why high refreshrate monitors look better even without Freesync/G-sync in one image.

my fans have 3 pins, and most of my sockets, but the cpu ones have 4

so how to adjust? I can adjust one but not the other ones

 

You don't. If a 4pin header does not regulate a 3pin fan, it simply does not have a DC controller connected. So you need to either get a fansplitter with 5V output or something like a fancontroller with DC control (not PWM!)

LOL... omg what did i just read!!!!!!

Asus mobo's adjust all fans speed no matter 3 or 4 connectors!!!!

mobo is adjusting voltage result of fan speed!!!!!!

That's why i said "If a 4pin header does not regulate a 3pin fan, it simply does not have a DC controller connected."

 

And i don't really like that sig of yours. That's a short waiting to happen. If you want to DIY shit, get a extraction tool set and modify some Molex cables. Not stuff pins in them.
