Hi, I have just finished the built of my new setup (Strix z790-E + 13900K). I am very stonished to see that Fan Xpert 4 in no more included within the AISuite software. It seems that it is mandatory to install Asus Armoury Crate in order to be able to use the Fan Xpert utility. More on rog-forum.asus.com

z390 missing fan xpert in armoury crate
Look at what armory crate can install in terms of drivers and utilities. Fan Xpert didn't come wth armory crate on my mobo, I had to install it from the list of available things in armory crate first, then it became available and I was able to configure the AI fan profile. More on reddit.com

After updating to Armoury Crate to 6.1.13.0, fan control vanished.
It appears to be necessary to install Assistant Feature Library which by the vague description is not something I would need. I think that FanXpert and the setup screen should be installed with the baseline Armory Crate package. I notice that in the Update Center that the FanXpert update date is unchanged despite my having installed something that brought the fan expert setup back from the dead (zombie FanXpert). Asus is OK unless it's not (which seems to be often lately). More on reddit.com

ROG MAXIMUS XI GENE

I've been using fan xpert in ai suite for a while. After reinstalling windows I don't have fan xpert option in ai suite, nor in armoury crate.

Both are on their latest versions, all drivers are up to date. 

Meanwhile fan xpert is available in armoury crate from the box after reinstalling windows on maximus z690.

r/ASUSROG on Reddit: After updating to Armoury Crate to 6.1.13.0, fan control vanished.
March 14, 2025 -

This is for a Rog Strix z790-E mobo. The fan control is literally the only reason I have Armoury Crater (AC) installed but on the last update to 6.1.13.0, the fan control seems to have vanished. I do see FanXpert in settings update center as last updated 2025/02/17 but I see no way to access the setup screen (needed to retrain fans).

The fans seem to now be controlled by the BIOS setup which is better than nothing but it can't be adjusted without rebooting and besides, the BIOS can't control fans according graphics temp. I believe all the required software is installed. What do I need to do to get it back? Can I reinstall a prior version of AC?

r/ASUS on Reddit: Armory Crate - Fan Xpert Won't Open - Prerequisite Update
June 15, 2025 -

Hi,

I've got a problem with Armory Crate - My product is the Prime B650-Plus motherboard

I am unable to open Fan Xpert in Armory Crate, everytime I try and open it, a pop-up appears saying prerequisite update, so I click update now, nothing is there, so I click check for updates, nothing is there.

The when I go back to Fan Xpert down the side, I get the same pop-up again.

I can select the preset "Silent", "Standard" and "Turbo" from the homepage, but whenever I press custom, or try and access Fan Xpert, I get the "Prerequisite update" pop up.

I have uninstalled Armory crate through the official installed 3 times, and then after reinstalling and updating, the same thing keeps happening.

Has anyone else had this issue?/Knows how to fix it?

I have raised a ticket with Asus, but not had any luck so far.

Thanks.

I just had this issue and it’s a really stupid solution that worked for me. I was having a completely separate issue where my RGB RAM isn’t being detected by Armoury Crate so I checked to see if it’s detected by the Aura Sync app within Armoury Crate, and I did not see the RAM there. But it was giving me the prompt to install updates (like what you showed in your post). When I tried to go to Fan Xpert 4, I’d get that same prompt to update, yet when I go to the update tab, there are no updates. So here’s what worked for me: Do you have Aura Creator installed? I had to open the SEPARATE Aura Creator app (not within Armoury Crate, it’s a separate Windows application) which gave me a prompt saying that I needed to update something. So I clicked on the update button and it took me to Armoury Crate again… where, magically, there was now an update for Windows Dynamic Lighting plugin. So I did that. Not sure if it matters, but also suddenly had a regular windows update, so I completed that too. After restarting, Armoury Crate now allows me to use Fan Xpert 4. RAM RGB still isn’t detected tho… but hopefully this helps you with your issue.

February 20, 2022 - Now can’t access fan xpert despite many reinstalls and supposed work arounds. Fans and Water cooler much louder than before ... Click to expand... I think it’s supposed to be but it’s not appearing for me. No matter how much I try installing reinstalling etc. now my Pump and chipset fan are really loud. Computer worked fine for two years nearly silently ... I have Asus boards and generally avoid all that armoury crate bloat ware.

April 22, 2025 - Tried deleting the downloaded files and the update process redownloaded them. But no success with installation. The whole armory create very laggy and slow. Wish i could get back the old version but i want to stay up to date. Any one else have this update issues? or have a solution? Cant find any update installation logs. ... Same issue here: Since I updated, I cannot access Fan Expert settings anymore. It is installed and updated acording to Armoury Crate and I can control the presets in the dashbord, but I cannot access the function itself and do custom profiles.

r/ASUS on Reddit: ASUS Fan Xpert 4
November 9, 2019 -

Alright, I bought ASUS Z390-F Strix Gaming Motherboard in Summer and hooked 2 CM MF120F RGB Fans with it. First I need to know where can I find ASUS Fan Xpert 4 download since ASUS advertised it on the official page but I can't seem to find the damn software anywhere all over their official website.

Secondly, I want to know if I somehow miraculously find Fan Xpert 4 and install it so will I able to control the speed of both fans? Can I turn the RPM down to Zero?

I started trying to tune my fans a bit, and realized I cannot even begin to with the fan control software in AC. I use AC to manage some RGB, so may as well use it for fans, right? Newp, grayed out. So I started on an adventure to uninstall and reinstall everything. I finally just installed AC with every bit of bloat it offered me, and now instead of a grayed out fanxpert I get no fan expert at all, lol.

First pic is how I started, second is how I ended up. I am going backwards.....

WTF, ASUS???
