I have a B650 Tomahawk Wifi and noticed a weird behavior on my System Fan #4.
No matter what step up time I set for the fan on this header in the BIOS it is completely ignored and the fan ramps up way too fast as if the setting was on default 0.1s.
I'm using the latest BIOS (the problem occured on all previous versions too) and I have swapped out my fans to confirm it is indeed the header and not the fan.
All the other System Fan headers, the CPU Fan and Pump behave normally as they should.

The problem is basically identical to this one which apparently got fixed by MSI in a new BIOS version https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?...t-respecting-the-step-up-time-setting.403816/
 
I'm using the latest released version that isn't labeled as "beta" so 1D75v1O.
And it shouldn't and doesn't matter whether the fan is set to PWM or DC (I'm using PWM though).
