Hi ,
Can you set fan speed via the MOBO?
Remember we talked about the H100i? I had no issues until one day the softare, also via USB header, stopped working. All my fans went to MAX!!!
I removed the software and installed the pump to OPT FAN on motherboard and ran that full speed all the time. The two fans I plugged into CPU FAN and CPU OPT FAN on the MAXIMUS V EXTREME. No issues after that, though not working as it should (no software).
Personally, I believe the software is not as good as manual settings. So, if you can try that route. I advise against the H100i -- The Kraken is what I would use now -- Reviews say it is better (some).
If you can control via MOBO you are 'safer' in my opinion anyway. You can also set up a fan profile as well via the MOBO. I forget what Gigabyte calls it, I have since moved from them to EVGA MOBO's to ASUS.
Let me know what happens with this... The Kraken is on my 'buy' list... Now I am wondering!!!
