How to control my fans

Hey, so I was thinking today that my new build is running too quiet and it turns out its because the fans are all on low. They are all connected to the Ethoo primo PWM hub at the back of the case. How do I change the speed of all my fans connected to that?

You should have a cable from the controller connected to the main cpu fan port on the motherboard, pop into the BIOS and check the settings for the fan port, I have mine on silent.

It should be connected to a header on the board so either turn up the rpm in the bios or using software

Yeah it is connected to the header on the motherboard i think. Is it the option called PWM phase control ? If thats the one changing it didn't do anything? I have the 2 fans for my h110i plugged into that fan header so need them running quicker.

when you say it doesnt change anything how do you know that?

can you see the rpm of the fans or are you guessing from the noise it makes?

i have a luxe and because of the fan hub my rpms are not reported but if i change the fans to full speed i can hear them change speed.

i would put the AIO cooler fans on the motherboard so you can see the rpm and control them independently of the case fans.

Yeah it sounds no different and temps stay the same. I don't use the h110i Y splitter because they don't connect to my fans. The only thing I have plugged into the h110i is the corsair link.

So I have removed all my fans from the PWM hub at the back of the case and now just plugging them into the board and h110i. The stock fans are pretty loud when gaming on the h110i but at least I can change the fan speed. Looking for a pair of 4 pin fans to buy now to replace them.
