hi all,
I'm new here so go easy! I just finished up building a brand new system where I have 5 arctic F12 PWM fans installed. 2 of the 5 fans are hooked up directly to the fan header on my motherboard (gigabyte Z170XP-SLI-CF) while the other 3 are hook up to an akasa flexa FP5S fan splitter.
The 3 fans that are connected to the fan splitter seem to be running at 100% (~1,500 RPM, per the BIOS) constantly, even if I set the fan to run in silent mode in the BIOS.
I'm not entirely sure what's going on here. defective splitter? defective fan? I'm running windows 10 and my BIOS was just updated to latest version available as I thought maybe the previously installed BIOS was buggy or something.

any help is appreciated!
