Never mind, apparently this mobo is indeed POS for overclocking purposes. But to another dilemma:
I have connected two 120mm case fans to PWR and CHA connectors on the mainboard and I had this great plan to set CPU-temperature limits for both so that PWR fan starts blowing air out sooner at max speed and CHA fan joins in later blowing cooler air in if temperatures keep rising. PWR fan has greater top RPM so even if they both run at top speed I should have negative pressure inside the case. Well, it appears that only one of the fans can be temperature controlled and other one is just idling at it's target speed. I tried to adjust settings via Xtreme tuner app but it seems that the fan of which settings I changed last before hitting APPLY follows temperature limit. If I manually set "target" max speed for both only then both fans run at top speed but I'm unable to get both of them follow temperature limit. Is this bug or limitation of the board, too big fans connected or something because surely seems odd to me?
