    On my desktop, i get this message nearly at every boot up, looking at my bios right now, processor fan speed is ~2300 RPM while chassis is ~800RPM, it was lower earlier.

    Any help?

    It's been like this for a long time but i just ignored it, never noticed anything bad. Is it possible to just set hardware monitoring to ignore the monitoring for it? I'm not sure the first time i got this message, I think it overheated and this happened. It overheated because i keep it in a cabinet and i had the cabinet door closed, thus alot of heat gathered up in there.

    I have cleaned the desktop... don't know what else to do now?

    I don't even know, what's' the chassis fan? I have 3 fans on mine I think, one on the GPU, one on the CPU, and one just generally taking it out of the tower, which i assume is the chassis fan? Just need to make sure is it?
