Hi, i have asrock taichi motherboard (x570), I noticed in BIOS that the SB fan is showing as NA. How to check if it's working ?

Simple! Check inside the case if it is functioning.
Then do a bios update if not then post on their forum.

Silly me, it was set.on semi passive mode in bios fan setting. Set it back to standard and it shows up in hw info.

This is weird and irrespective of the modes it should show in any monitoring tools as the slot is been utilized and data gets fetched from the bios.

Maybe it shows up only when it's spinning?

Possible but best method is to physically identify if its spinning currently and then check in monitoring tools if its then showing the desired operating result.
Some tool updates might be buggy at times in identifying sensors and connectors..

Yes, irrespective of setting it to passive mode it should show rpm
 
well, the fan is under the GPU, so makes it impossible to check. Unless i take out the whole board etc out of the cabinet.
