CPU Fan error

Hey guys,
So I made a post a while ago about PC noises and I had a reply from PC specialist (it was just gpu whine) but I noticed that, since then when I boot up my PC very rarely it made weird loud noise when booting up(happened twice since I have the PC) and lately my fans were all over the place as in getting louder for no reason whatsoever.
I booted up this morning and I got this error, whats would be the best approach?

I looked up and I found that it's pretty common for Asus motherboards,but didn't want to change any bios settings before, as I have no idea how anything should be.

As you’ve got an AIO, there is no system fan, well there is but it’s controlled by the Corsair controller, not the motherboard, so you can disable that warning in the bios

Hey, yeah I have came across that link earlier just wanted to double check before doing anything 😁, thanks.
As for the fans themselves, I have a small question, the fans are on a icue curve now but I noticed lately them getting louder/quicker for no reason whatsoever (unless I'm going crazy 🤣) but the icue shows no spikes?

If you’re sure it’s the fans and not the pump, they’re set to the coolant temperature, which is reliant on the pump profile.

I think the pump defaults to Quiet sometimes, but that’s not enough, you want balanced as a minimum.

Then you may find the default iCue fan curves are too aggressive. You may want to tailor those to you own

Hmm,
I made myself a custom curve a while ago, and adjusted all the speeds to CPU temperatures, just in the last few days sounded like they speed up just randomly while doing basic stuff and icue showed nothing, fans and CPU temps were low, i might be just going crazy with the recent weather 🤣🤣, I will keep an eye on it anyway.
Thanks 😁👍

You don’t set the fans to react to cpu temp, that will be the issue, they should change based on the coolant temperature

If the curve is too aggressive then the fans will keep going up and down in big jumps for small temp changes.

What have you set as your speeds/% for at each coolant temp (e.g. 30% at 30ºc, 40% at 35ºc, 50% at 40ºc, 100% at 45ºc)?

Pretty basic, where the noises arent that bad, after playing some intense games (played whole wukong on max possible settings) didnt drop below 85-90 fps and the hottest coolent temp was up to 37-38.
5-10% increments between temps and only on the higher ones does it have big jump (havent experienced it yet)

Maybe it's not the AIO fans at all, and maybe the included front/rear non-RGB front/exhaust fans are ramping up & down?

I assume they're not iCUE compatible/connected, so may need to be configured better via BIOS?

You could test that assumption by setting your AIO fans onto a slowish static speed to rule those out.
