So at least the polarity bit is correct, and Gigabyte isn't to blame.

This is coherent with your chip configuration.

Hi,
While we're at it, the fan speed sensor reports an absurd speed when the fan
is driven with very low but non-zero pwm values. For example, driving it
with pwm=2 I get speeds over 50K rpms, while of course the fan is stopped
(almost?). This could be just an hardware sensitivity problem in
