Question Be Quiet 850W

fan problems.
when i connect my fans to 12v lane they work properly.
when i plug em to the FAN connectors on the psu, nothing.
did i miss something? do i need to enable it somehow?!? not as far as i know...

edit:
i read on their faq page now, and it tells me that the psu puts out only 4,4V on the fan rail.
it raises the Voltage to 7-8V IF the temperature is higher than 42°C

sorry, but i think that configuration is nonsense.
all my fans run at 12V and do not even spin up at 4.4V
further 42°C is way too high! the water should not go above 35°C to keep the pump in good shape.
seems i have to use 12V connectors on the lines...
