4.5.2 Hardware Monitor

MB Temperature [xxxC/xxxF]

CPU Temperature [xxxC/xxxF]

POWER Temperature [N/A]

The onboard hardware monitor automatically detects and displays the motherboard and CPU temperatures.

If your power supply comes with a two-pin thermal sensor cable, connect this cable to the TRPWR connector on the motherboard to allow BIOS to auto-detect the power supply temperature (see page 2-29 for the location of the TRPWR connector). The POWER temperature item shows N/A if you do not have the appropriate power supply. Select [Ignore] to disable the power temperature auto-detect function.

CPU Fan Speed [xxxxRPM] or [N/A]

Chassis Fan Speed [xxxxRPM] or [N/A]

Power Fan Speed [xxxxRPM] or [N/A]

The onboard hardware monitor automatically detects and displays the CPU, chassis, and power fan speeds in rotations per minute (RPM). If any of the fans is not connected to the motherboard, the specific field shows N/A.
