Hi,
I have an Aquaero 6 XT.
Connected to this are 11 EK EVO 140ER fans:
https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-vardar-evo-140er-black
AQ6 Fan Header 1: 4 radiator fans.
AQ6 Fan Header 2: 4 side fans (for positive case pressure, not blowing on mobo).
AQ6 Fan Header 3: 2 front intake fans, 1 rear exit fan.
AQ6 Fan Header 4: 2 EK DDC pumps (no power, just PWM signal).
My problem is that the two headers with 4 fans run at about 50% max RPM (1000 +/-), but they show 85%-100% power draw, and only .5A draw (in Aquasuite).
These fans power consumption are listed at 3.86w (.321A @ 12v).
I'd expect to see 2000rpm pulling close 1.2A+, but at 1000 rpm max it's pulling the expected .5A+.
Why is AQ6 reporting close max power draw at less than half fan spec?
Each header is rated for 2.5A correct?
Very confused here.
As a note, FAN3 (with 3 fans, one less than the radiator header or side fan header) I'm seeing 1700 rpm +/-.
Thank you.
