3-8. PC Health Status

You can set the warning and shutdown temperatures for your computer system, and you can check the fan speeds and power supply voltages of your computer system. The features are useful for monitoring all the important parameters within your computer system. We call it the PC Health Status.

Temperature Warning:

Eight options are available: Disabled ( 50/122( 53/127( 56/133( 60/140( 63/145( 66/151( 70/158. The default setting is Disabled. You can set the processor warning temperature here. If the processor temperature exceeds the settings value, the system will give you an alarm message or sound to remind you that the processor is overheating.

All Voltages, Fans Speed and Thermal Monitoring:

These items list the current states of the CPU and environment (using RT1 and RT2 to detect them.) temperatures as well as fan speeds (CPU fan and chassis fan). It cann’t be changed by the user. The following items list the voltage states of the system power. It is also unchangeable.

CPU Shutdown Temperature:

Five options are available: Disabled ( 60/140( 65/149( 70/158( 75/167. The default setting is Disabled. You can set the processorshutdown temperature here. If the processor temperature exceeds the settings value, system will force to shutdown to protect the processor not overheat.

Shutdown when CPUFAN Fail:

Two options are available: Disabled or Enabled. The default setting is Disabled. If you set it to Enabled, if CPUFAN out of order, system will force to shutdown to protect the processor not overheat.
