CPU Temperature Threshold
This option allows the user to set a CPU temperature threshold that will activate the
alarm system when the CPU temperature reaches this pre-set temperature threshold.

The options are 70 C, 75 C, 80 C and 85 C. (*See the note below.)
Highlight this and hit <Enter> to see the status of each item below:
CPU1 Temperature/CPU1 Second Core

PECI Agent 4 Temperature
System Temperature
Fan1-Fan8 Speeds: If the feature of Auto Fan Control is enabled, the BIOS will
automatically display the status of the fans indicated in this item.
Fan Speed Control Modes
This feature allows the user to decide how the system controls the speeds of the
onboard fans. The CPU temperature and the fan speed are correlative. When
the CPU on-die temperature increases, the fan speed will also increase, and vice
versa. If set to "Server", the fan speed will be set to optimize server performance.
If the option is set to "Workstation", the fan speed is set to optimize workstation
performance. Select "Quiet" for the fans to operate as quiet as possible. Select
"Disable" to disable the fan speed control function to allow the onboard fans to run
at the full speed (12V) at all time. The Options are: 1. Server, 2. Workstation, 3.
Quiet, 4. Disable (Fans run at the full speed.)
Voltage Monitoring
The following items will be monitored and displayed:
P12V_VR0/P12V_VR1
FSB VTT
PXH Vcore
ES2B Vcore
CPU1Vcore/CPU2Vcore
P3V3
Note: In the Windows OS environment, the Supero Doctor III settings take prece-
dence over the BIOS settings. When fi rst installed, Supero Doctor III adopts the
temperature threshold settings previously set in the BIOS. Any subsequent changes
to these thresholds must be made within Supero Doctor, since the SD III settings
override the BIOS settings. For the Windows OS to adopt the BIOS temperature
threshold settings, please change the SDIII settings to be the same as those set
in the BIOS.
