Thermal Radar Chassis fan resets on reboot

I use Asus Thermal Radar to control the fan speeds inside my case. I have one fan set up to the chassis plug because I use it to blow air onto the motherboard. The software works for tying that fan to the temps of the VCORE and NB. It keeps resetting to the lowest possible speed every time I reboot. Every time I start up thermal radar after a restart the fan is in the red and is showing 560 RPM. When I click on my fan speed profile it kicks back up to where its supposed to be. The CPU fan curve is working as intended and does no reset on a reboot.

Still need help on this issue. I contacted ASUS support and they are just offering I RMA the entire board. I don't want to spend an hour dismounting everything from my motherboard, go for a week without a computer, then spend another hour putting everything back. I am pretty sure that wouldn't even fix the problem since this is obviously a software issue.

I know this thread is mega dead and it's like resurrecting a mummy... but I too have this issue even with the newest ASUS suite and running in W10. I've tried various BIOS fan settings (set profiles and custom profiles) as well as different settings inside Thermal Radar (set profiles as well as various ram up temp/speeds) but the problem still exists. It's annoying having to go into chassis fan setting every time after bootup and reclicking the fan icon and then "apply" to have fans running at anything above 600RPM or react to temp changes. At least now I know it's not faulty fan issue knowing someone else also ran into it.

instead of using whatever temps to monitor that you are using for cha fan, try setting it to watch cpu temp only,
is thaz aisuite2 or 3?

Hey thanks for the reply. Haven't had much luck with posts here.

I tried using only the CPU temp to regulate the chassis fans but it's still the same, on boot up stuck at low RPM until I re-apply the settings in Thermal Radar. This is AI Suite 2 since 3 isn't supported on my Sabretooth 990FX card. Thermal Radar 1.01.29 if that matters. Any other thoughts?

Not really, I used to do it with aisuite2 everytime i booted up, it is enough to apply settings otherwise it doesn't work, I don't think they will fix it ever, my humble opinion is that the thermal radar version of aisuite2 is broken because it is actually wrongly using some parts of fanxpert software instead of thermal radar, if you look at the files you will see it is referencing wrong things, sorry cant be more precise atm. I never found a fix.

Bent, it's all good man. Thanks for trying. Appreciate it.

Wanted to leave a quick update/workaround that might be useful for some. Strangely, if I don't turn off the power bar to the desktop, i.e the desktop is still plugged into power even after shutdown, the chassis fan settings stick. The fans will act properly (ramp up higher than 600RPM and react to temperature) with whatever profile/custom settings you set up as long as you don't disconnect power to the computer. Sounds like somebody at ASUS screwed up saving fan settings to the wrong part of the motherboard.
