CPU Thermal Protection Aimed to prevent the CPU from overheating, MSI has developed a CPU Thermal Protection mechanism for Intel® CPU platform. This CPU Thermal Protection mechanism works on a thermal signal sensor. If the mechanism senses an abnormal temperature rise, it will automatically shut down the system and the CPU temperature will then drop down and resume normal. With this unique feature, users can better protect their CPU. Please note that this feature is for Intel® Pentium CPU only. 1-9
