So my Aio fans are subsisted to be able to hit 2100rpms but when I put it to max it only hits as high as 950 to 900 and when I put it to a fixed rpm it doesn’t let me go above 950rpms. Can anyone lmk how to fix this or what’s causing it?

where are the fans plugged in to??? motherboard or AIO??? both will have their own software to control the fans

fans plugged in to the AIO can NOT be controlled by the motherboard and fans plugged in to the motherboard can not be controlled by the AIO fan controller (every AIO i have ever used had its own fan controller)

so find out where their plugged in and go for the software that corresponds

It’s connected to motherboard and the highest it’ll go is like 960 even tho it’s max is 2100 I don’t know what really to do maybe it’s not plugged into the right spot on my motherboard? I have another single fan in the back that’s connect to motherboard and that fine no issues at all

Check if it depends on the mobo temp or CPU temp . Just change it to CPU

Check the fan curve

I’ve messed around with the fan curve so much already putting it at 100% doesn’t make it reach 2100rpms it stays around 900 to 950

It’s plugged into the port that literally says aio pump and it’s a Corsair nautilus 360mm

what if you plug the fans into CPU_FAN header

do you have them plugged in correctly seeing as the are daisy chained.never used
daisy chaind fans myself.

"Easy Daisy-Chained Connections: Reduce the wiring in your system by daisy-chaining your RS ARGB fans and connecting them to just one 4-pin PWM fan header and one +5V ARGB header"

the fans are 0.4A .x3 = 1.2A .i guess the mobo supports 1-2A

my single fan in the back is connected to the cpu fan header and i think i found my issue theres a low noise adapter connected to my aio fans that connect to the mobo and i think thats whats stopping it from reaching closer to its max rpms im gonna have it removed soon and have it connect straight to mobo
