StrainedCMOS Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I have 1 fan on my computer (6 LL120 fans connected to a Commander Pro) and it's been a little shaky lately. From time to time, the fan shows an RPM about 60% of the remaining fans and just recently it stopped turning all together until I've rebooted a couple of times. RGB works normally and can access every pattern and each LED on the fan, but no dice on the actual fanning part. Think it is a dead fan or issues with iCue?

DevBiker Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Have you tried it on a different port on the Commander Pro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotty Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Hi buddy. Do they all have the same fan curve applied to them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrainedCMOS Posted December 6, 2018 Author Share Posted December 6, 2018 Yeah, what ends up happening is that instead of Fan 1 reporting 0 RPM, Fan 2 is reporting 0 RPM. It can actually tell me in iCue that the fan isn't spinning, so it is I think at least reporting that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 So the issue moves with the fan and doesn't stay with the fan port, correct? That would indicate an issue with the fan. What fan curve do you have it set to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrainedCMOS Posted December 7, 2018 Author Share Posted December 7, 2018 I have tried to use Quiet, Balanced and Extreme with no luck. Created a new fan curve that keeps all fans about 900 RPM until the temp gets over 60C. Sometimes unplugging the fan (PWM cable) gets it to restart.

DevBiker Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Well, if the issue moves with the fan, I think that it's pretty clear that the fan has a problem. Maybe a connection that is close but just not quite 100%. Your best bet is to get it replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrainedCMOS Posted December 7, 2018 Author Share Posted December 7, 2018 Here is the kicker, I installed the latest iCue version yesterday. After installation, the stopped fan kicks back on and has been running since. Before even that one fan would run slowly (if the RPM is set to 1200, it would run at 700) but even that isn't happening. Now granted, this is only a few hours after, but now I want to see over the weekend if the weird behavior continues. With the last 2 versions when booting all fans stop until iCue loads in then they all spin up. It's disconcerting behavior but I am now leaning on iCue as the continual culprit.
