CPU Temperature(PECI) / MB Temperature [xxxºC/xxxºF] The onboard hardware monitor automatically detects and displays the CPU and motherboard temperatures. Select Ignored if you do not wish to display the detected temperatures. CPU Fan Speed [xxxxRPM] or [Ignored] / [N/A] Chassis Fan Speed [xxxxRPM] or [Ignored] / [N/A] Power Fan Speed [xxxxRPM] or [Ignored] / [N/A] The onboard hardware monitor automatically detects and displays the CPU, chassis, and power fan speed in rotations per minute (RPM). If the fan is not connected to the motherboard, the field shows N/A. Select Ignored if you do not wish to display the detected speed. VCORE Voltage, 3.3V Voltage, 5V Voltage, 12V Voltage The onboard hardware monitor automatically detects the voltage output through the onboard voltage regulators. Select Ignored if you do not want to detect this item. CPU Q-Fan Function [Disabled] [Disabled] Disables the CPU Q-Fan feature. [Enabled] Enables the CPU Q-Fan feature. The following two items appear only when you set CPU Q-Fan Function to [Enabled]. CPU Fan Speed Low Limit [200 RPM] Allows you to manually set a lower limit for the CPU fan speed. If the CPU fan speed is below the specified limit, the system sends out warning beeps.
