Cannot control GigaByte X299X Aorus Master Fans. #1545

Describe the bug When I first installed the new win10 OS, FanControl worked very well. After I installed Gigabyte's official fan control utility named SIV, FanControl cannot control the fans anymore. Even after I uninstalled SIV.

Is there any problem?

Is there a log.txt file next to FanControl.exe with recent date entries?

The control is being overridden by an external source.

And Force Apply doesn't work.

Relevant hardware specs and setup Gigabyte X299X Aorus Master motherboard. Fans: PhanTeks T30 *7, 3 in the front, 3 at the top, 1 in the rear. GPU: Colorful RTX3090 Vulcan OC, dual control module, one for a fan in the middle and another for the two fan right and left.

I have test FanControl on my another PC with MSI motherboard inside. The motherboard is Z690 Tomahawk Wifi d4. I mount all the fans to the motherboard directly and FanControl software can adjust them properly. Very nice.

However, the same method doesn't work on my X299 Aorus Master motherboard. I think this is Gigabyte's problem. Nevertheless, I wonder to know is there some potential factors caused this out-of-control problem? Such as the BIOS or PWM controller?
