Chapter 4: BIOS

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", "600C/1400F", "650C/ 1490F", "700C/1580F", "750C/1670F", "800C/1760F" and "850C/1850F". (*See the note below.)

Note: In the Windows OS environment, the Supero Doctor III settings take precedence over the BIOS settings. When first installed, the SD III adopts the temperature threshold settings previously set in the BIOS. Any subse- quent changes to these thresholds must be made within Supero Doctor, since the SDIII settings override the BIOS settings. For the Windows OS to adopt the BIOS temperature threshold settings, please change the SDIII set- tings to be the same as those set in the BIOS.

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

System Temperature:

In addition to temperature monitoring, the status of the following items will also be displayed:

Fan 1 Speed-Fan 5 Speed

Voltage Monitoring

Processor Vcore (V), 3.3V Vcc (V), 5V Vcc (V), -12V Vcc (V), +12V Vcc (V), 5V Standby, VBAT

Fan Speed Control (Fan1-Fan5)

When set to 3-pin, the onboard fan speed is controlled by the CPU tem- perature. 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: "Disable" and "3-pin Server".
