I've been having a problem with my ASUS X79 Sabertooth board since day 1 now. The PWM CPU fans/pump (I'm using a Swiftech H320) are being controlled just fine automatically, however, the wrong sensor is being used to determine the fan/pump speeds. Instead of using the CPU temp (core, package, etc.) it's, I believe, either using what HWmonitor calls SYSTIN or TMPIN3.
I tried installing the ASUS suite stuff with Fan Xpert, no difference, it still bases the fan-speed curves off of the SYSTIN or TMPIN3 sensors.
Even on "Turbo" mode the CPU fans don't ramp up enough. For example, at 65 or 70 degrees I want the fans to be running at max, and according to the BIOS (and even asus suite when I tried it) they should be, however, because the fans are "looking" at the wrong sensor, they are barely ramping up.
I have the latest BIOS (I think v4608 from around Jan/14)
Please help me guys! The SYSTIN / TMPIN3 temps hardly change between idle CPU clocks/load and loaded CPU clocks/load, hence making it impossible to have proper fan speeds based on CPU temps
System Specs:
- CPU: Intel i7-4930K @ 4.4 GHz

- RAM: G.SKILL RipjawsZ 16 GB (4 x 4 GB quad channel) @ 1866 MHz 8-9-9-24-2T
- Storage: SSD-Samsung 840 Pro 256 GB (OS, some other programs/games) - HDD-Samsung Spinpoint F3 1 TB (storage, most games, etc.)
- PSU: Antec HCP-1200 (High Current Pro 1200w)
- Case: Cooler Master HAF 932
- Operating System: Windows 8.1 64-bit
