FOC
The newly designed SOYO “FOC” is based on the concept of total protection for the CPU, which is very different from what is currently seen on the market.The H/W control function is used to see a passive security system of monitoring and warning. S/W Simultaneous Signal
“FOC” includes the following functions:
Simultaneous Signal Follow Up: Before the system enters the O/S, H/W will detect the signals of the CPU fan pins, get their revolution information and send it to the BIOS.
Auto Power Off System: If the BIOS receives the information of CPU fan revolution, it continues to function normally. If no signal is received, it will inform the system and disconnect the power supply immediately to protect the CPU from overheating.
Note:The following must be observed to secure the normal functioning of
1.FOC only works on CPUFAN 1.
2.A CPU fan with sensor pin must be used.
3.CPU fans approved by AMD are strongly recommended.
The “HOT KEY” function is provided for the CPU fans without sensor pins, to avoid the power off. Users may press the “Insert” key to jump over the “Power Off” mode; go to the BIOS and disable “FOC”. Now system can be booted normally.
We provide the following
1.
2.Heat Dissipation Paste: Heat Dissipation Paste is included for all
Furthermore, we strongly recommend our users to enable the function of H/W monitoring in the BIOS. This function, together with the FOC, provides the total protection to the CPU and allows it to maximize its performance.
Note: FOC will only work during
