Corsair h100 setting's

[Buckleheid]

Apologies if this has been asked before. I'm on my mobile and can use the search button, I have the cooler set up with 2 fans in pull and the exhaust fan plugged into the pump controller, I have it set to maximum at idle, can I change the fan speeds in bios or is it just controlled by the h100 alone? I'm going to add another fan on the bottom of the case as well but I can just plug that into a 4pin header on the mobo and the mobo will control that right?
Thanks in advance for the hell

If the H100 has no 4 pin PWM lead going back to the motherboard's CPU_FAN header then it'll just be the H100 that controls its own fan speeds. As I recall the H100 had a switch which one would use to change the speed.

Ideally you'd be using PWM fans, or 3 pinners converted to PWM via a special converter, which would be plugged into your motherboard which could then vary the speed based on the CPU temperature.

There is no need for a modern PC to be running heatsink 120mm fans at 2600RPM at idle. Something more like 600-800RPM would be acceptable in my opinion.

If they're plugged into the H100, the H100 controls them.

If you connect the fans to 4pin mobo, and the fans are PWM, the mobo controls them '

To control 3pin fans you either need a special mobo or a fan controller.
