This motherboard provides a fan speed control feature call “Smart Fan Control”. Smart Fan Control automatically controls fan speed depending on the current CPU/ system temperature and to keep it with a specific operating speed. When the current CPU/ system temperature is over the maximum temperature, the CPU/ system fan will run at the maximum speed. When the current CPU/ system temperature is under the minimum temperature, the CPU/ system fan will run at the minimum speed. In this field, you can set the CPU and system fans’ speeds and target temperatures.
