This is from Aida64 support. "The only thing that may cause such issue would be the proprietary fan muxing feature that ASRock uses on your motherboard (and a number of other motherboards as well). It effectively muxes the RPM measurement signals of the CPU fan1 and the CPU fan2 headers into the same fan register of the Nuvoton sensor chip. When another software (for example ASRock's own monitoring software called Extreme Tuner) alters the GPIO setting for the fan mux, then the sensor chip will reflect the fan RPM for the CPU fan2 header. I'm afraid we don't have a solution for such issues :( ASRock should simply stop using that weird GPIO fan muxing on their boards." The board in question was Asrock X79 Extreme4.
