Latest bios information and Q-Fan concerns
Your motherboard is the Strix X570-E running an outdated BIOS (version 1201 x64). The Q-Fan is stuck on high speed and won’t respond, even after using the Fan Control software. I attempted to update via BIOS settings online, but only showed up to version 3001—your current model is at 5001. Since you haven’t updated yet, this might be the latest you can reach. If you encounter issues, you could try accessing the BIOS port on the back of the PC to attempt a manual update to a lower version. Please let me know what you find.
Your board does indeed feature a bios flashback port and button (or at least the manual confirms it). If you're using another PC, you can create a USB with the bios enabled instead of relying on the internet option. If the documentation specifies that bios is only compatible with your board and revision, then it should function—otherwise, use flashback mode. You might want to configure your fans within the bios settings; tools like FanControl simplify this process. Just ensure your fans are set correctly (e.g., PWM vs DC) and connected to the appropriate headers for PWM control.
The system has functioned well for several years, but attempts at using FanControl have failed. I will attempt to update the BIOS as recommended.
