7-4.5 Hardware Monitors

There are only three settings on this menu (below). The rest of this menu shows various temperatures and voltage levels as indicated.

CPU Warning Temperature

This allows you to set the CPU warning temperature. If the CPU temperature reaches this threshold, an alarm will activate and a warning message will be displayed onscreen. The options are "Disabled", "500C/1220F", "600C/1400F", "650C/1490F", "700C/1580F", "750C/1670F", "800C/1760F" and "850C/1850F".

Highlight this and hit <Enter> to see monitor data for the following items:

Fan Speed Control (Fan1-Fan5)

When set to 3-pin, the onboard fan speed is controlled by the CPU temperature. When the CPU temperature is higher, the fan speed will be higher as well. If set to "Disable," the fan speed control is disabled and the onboard fan will run at the full speed (12V) at all time. The options are: "Disabled" and "3-pin Server".
