Gigabyte Z370 HD3 Fan Speed Problem on Windows 10

Gigabyte Z370 HD3 Fan Speed Problem on Windows 10
« on: November 19, 2017, 11:44:21 pm »
HI, I have a Z370 HD3 Motherboard and every time I go to windows, the case fan runs full speed even if I configure the fans throught bios to silent mode; using the program througt appcenter from windows does not work; the only way that I have could resolve this problem is go to suspend mode and return to windows; when I do that the case fans runs normaly.

I have read that many people have the same problem but Gigabyte not respond anything. What could I do to solve this issue? Thanks

Bios version: F4
Windows 10 Pro updated

***The only fan that works propertly, is one that have four pins.
***The case fans works well until the PC enters to windows
***On the BIOS the case fans works well, speed is normal according to the configuration of the BIOS

Greeting,
The last 3 (170, 270, 370) chipsets have see this issue to a certain degree. Seems to be related to BIOS interaction with windows. 

Would recommend using 4 pin fans throughout the case.  Also suggest that you not set any custom fan curve profiles up in SF5 as others have reported issues when they do so.  Fans run as expected in BIOS, then runs at full speed in the OS.  The behavior changes after resume from S3 clearly indicates the problem is BIOS related.

I have a z370 (in my sig).  3 case fans + CPU fan.  My case fans avg. 600-700RPM.  CPU fan about 1300~2600 depending.  Whisper quiet most of the time.  Power supply is zero RPM.  It's fan never runs.  Love how quiet this box is.
