CPU Step Smart Fan Low/ High Temp
W hen the CPU Smart Fan set to the "Step Smart Fan", this item will appear.
The mainboard provides another Smart Fan system which can control the fan
speed automatically depending on the current temperature to keep it within a
specific step. In these items you can set the low and high tempertures, and the
values between are the range of the steps. Setting options: [1~255].
CPU Fan Tolerance Value
W hen the CPU Smart Fan set to the "Step Smart Fan", this item will appear.
The Fan tolerance value will decide the intervals of the steps from low tempera-
ture to high temperature. The fan speed will increase at higher steps and de-
crease at lower steps according to the steps. Setting options: [1~15].
Current Smart Fan Step
This item shows how many steps between the low and high temperatures.
Read only.
Each Step Increase Fan Output
This item shows the percentage for the CPU fan speed to increase or decrease
between two steps. Read only.
NB Fan TargetTemp Value
W hen the NB Smart Fan set to the "Thermal Cruise" this item will appear. The
mainboard provides the Smart Fan system which can control the fan speed
automatically depending on the current temperature to keep it with in a specific
range. Setting options: [1~255].
NB Fan Tolerance Value
W hen the NB Smart Fan set to the "Thermal Cruise" this item will appear. You
can select a fan tolerance value here for the specific range for the "NB Fan
TargetTemp. Value" item. If the current temperature of the fan reaches to the
maximum threshold (the temperatures set in the "NB Fan TargetTemp. Value"
plus the tolerance values you set here), the fan will speed up for cooling down.
On the contrary, if the current temperature reaches to the minimum threshold
(the set temperatures minus the tolerance value), the fan will slow down to keep
the temperature stable. Setting options: [1~15].
CPU/NB Temperature, CPU/ NB Fan Speed, Vcore, +12.0V, +3.3V, +5.0V,
These items display the current status of all of the monitored hardware devices/
components such as CPU voltage, temperatures and all fans' speeds.
