ASUS Z690-I firmware issue v2004 - Limited CPU FAN speed

UltraNEO_
Level 11
Hi..

I recently flashed my Z690-I motherboard with the latest firmware, currently this is version 2004.

Since then, I am unable to make my CPU fan run at the full 2000 RMP my Noctua NF-A9 PWM fans are capable of doing.
Even with Qfan Control set at 100%, my fans are spinning at a maximum 1239~1270 rpm. Which isn't right.


I would try rolling back however this specific version of the firmware doesn't now allow rollback and this is a huge issue.
Please, someone help me sort this out!

What if you set factory defaults in the BIOS and then set fan speed there? Is it just the Windows software or it doesn't even reach full speed in the BIOS either?
A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a work station…

I did the factory defaults already. In the BIOS fan monitor, Fan in the CPU header doesn't reach the full speed at all, there's a big difference between the AIO speed and CPU speed. Ideally, I like both fans to run at 100%, with the same RPM at high temps.

I know, it wasn't doing this before I flashed in the latest UEFI. There's a bug somewhere.
