March 14, 2025 - (upload to imgur.com and post link) You have to find out, what fan connectors your fans are using. Depending on fan connectors, they get regulated differently. 3pin fans get regulated in DC mode. 4pin fans get regulated in PWM mode. You have to adjust fan settings in BIOS accordingly or fans will not be regulated properly.

BIOS fan control settings - what do they really mean?
Actually, after awhile it got up to 1100 rpm with the cores at 57,66,63 and 62 C. That's with the slope set at the maximum of 15. I guess I need to try small #'s for slope. I changed the slope to 3 from 15 with DeltaT staying at 2. Virtually no change. Changed the Start PWM value from 50 to 40 - no change. This is wierd. The eSF program clearly works with the CPU fan connector, but the BIOS fan control settings seem to change nothing.

July 31, 2025 - Motherboard Fan Connectors: What They Are and How They Work ... Molex connectors draw all power from the PSU. They can't be dynamically controlled and are limited using a resistor cable. 3-pin DC connectors run at full power, allowing the motherboard to limit voltage for speed adjustments. 4-pin PWM (pulse width modulation) connectors allow dynamic control via software and hardware. The BIOS offers Windows 10 fan control options.
