PWM on my mobo help
opt = optional
cha = chassis
Not sure how your motherboard handles those. Maybe only the chassis fans are controlled based on the temperature, maybe all of them respond to the temperature or CPU load, maybe something else.
Currently looking at the user manual for your motherboard Fan setup starts at page112. Will edit this post if I find something useful there.
EDIT : right ...
Chassis fans : Fully customizeable once you turn on their control. Minimum RPM can be set from "ignore" to 600 RPM in 100RPM increments.
You can choose between standard, silent, turbo and manual profile, the latter being one you can modify yourself.
Should you choose the manual profile, you can set up temperature limits (low as well as high) and fan percentages at those.
So if you're struggling with a fan that's connected to a cha_fan header, you can sort it out by increasing the minimum RPM and maybe the fan percentage at the lower temperature limit. Fan speeds can be set from 40 to 100% in 10% increments.
As for the optional fans, the manual isn't exactly clear. If I interpret it right, even if you enable fan control they won't turn on until the CPU reaches the minimum temperature you selected (25, 30, 35 or 40°C). they'll then ramp up until they max out when the CPU reaches the temperature you selected as maximum (60, 70, 80 or 90°C)
Conclusion : check the menus to make sure the fan controls are active and set up properly according to the temperatures that your CPU does with your cooler and usage pattern.
