2.6.1CPU Temperature / MB Temperature [xxxºC/xxxºF]

The onboard hardware monitor automatically detects and displays the CPU and motherboard temperatures. Select Ignore if you do not wish to display the detected temperatures.

2.6.2CPU_FAN / CHA_FAN Speed [xxxx RPM] or [Ignore] / [N/A]

The onboard hardware monitor automatically detects and displays the CPU / chassis fan speeds in rotations per minute (RPM). If the fan is not connected to the motherboard, the field shows N/A. Select Ignore if you do not wish to display the detected speed.

2.6.3CPU_FAN Q-Fan Control [Enabled]

[Disabled]

Disables the CPU Q-Fan control feature.

[Enabled]

Enables the CPU Q-Fan control feature.

CPU_FAN Fan Speed Low Limit [200 RPM]

This item appears only when you enable the CPU_FAN Q-Fan Control feature and allows you to disable or set the CPU fan warning speed. Configuration options: [Ignore] [200RPM] [300 RPM] [400 RPM] [500 RPM] [600 RPM]

CPU_FAN Fan Profile [Standard]

This item appears only when you enable the CPU_FAN Q-Fan Control feature and allows you to set the appropriate performance level of the CPU fan.

[Standard]

Sets to [Standard] to make the CPU fan automatically adjust depending on

 

the CPU temperature.

[Silent]

Sets to [Silent] to minimize the fan speed for quiet CPU fan operation.

[Turbo]

Sets to [Turbo] to achieve maximum CPU fan speed.

[Manual]

Sets to [Manual] to assign detailed fan speed control parameters.

The following four items appear only when you set CPU_FAN Fan Profile to [Manual].

CPU_FAN Upper Temperature [70]

Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the upper limit of the CPU temperature. The values range from 20ºC to 75ºC.

CPU_FAN Fan Max. Duty Cycle(%) [100]

Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the maximum CPU fan duty cycle. The values range from 20% to 100%. When the CPU temperature reaches the upper limit, the CPU fan will operate at the maximum duty cycle.

CPU_FAN Lower Temperature [20]

Displays the lower limit of the CPU temperature.

CPU_FAN Fan Min. Duty Cycle(%) [40]

Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the minimum CPU fan duty cycle. The values range from 20% to 100%. When the CPU temperature is under the lower limit, the CPU fan will operate at the minimum duty cycle.
