There is no fan lead on a Corsair PSU to report to the motherboard. The reading you are seeing is from whatever device you have connected to the 3 pin fan header on your MOBO that is for the PWR (power) fan.

For real! Had me scratching my head while waiting for this page to load. HAF932 has those giant 220mm fans that turn like a paddle wheel so I'm betting one of those is plugged into the power fan header.

What to do?
Go into your BIOS and set it to IGNORE the fan speed.

Or you can plug the fan into a mobo cable directly, instead of to the board. I would recommend it anyways on higher consumption fans, puts lets stress on the boards power systems, and can likely increase stability for OC.
