Hey everyone, I have two 120mm fans on my AIO setup. One is linked to the CPU fan, and the other is connected to the system fan. I’m not sure how to wire the second fan to match the first one’s speed, but I’ve adjusted both to run at the same temperature and percentage. From HWMonitor, the fan that’s tied to the system fan often hits a high RPM—sometimes around 2800 or even higher. I haven’t noticed that speed on Valve, but after checking later I see it matches. Could this be normal behavior, or is there an issue with the monitoring?
