Strange issue with fans

Hi all,

Bit of a weird one.

So, I noticed in HWiNFO64 and all other monitoring software including the bios that the name of my fans i.e. "CPU" "System 1" etc. etc. seem to be a bit mixed up.

So what I see physically plugged into the CPU fan header and leading to a radiator is reported as being a case fan somewhere completely different in the build.

What is even stranger is that all the fans are directly plugged into the motherboard. I am not even using any splitters, yet they all seem to be mixed up.

I have even tested this by using fan stop and looking at what fan stops when I put it to 0% rpm.

Has anyone ever come across anything like this before?

Basics are, it's an AM5 system, no fan hubs or anything, fans connected directly.

Thanks for anyone's input!
 
Haven't seen that happen but it's probably just a bios quirk. You could try an update but if you know which fan is going where now and they're spinning up/down correctly I'd just ignore it
