CPU Q-Fan Mode [PWM] Allows you to select the type of CPU fan cable connected to the CPU fan connector. Set to [PWM] when using a 4-pin CPU fan cable. Set to [DC] when using a 3-pin CPU fan cable. Configuration options: [PWM] [DC] Some CPU fans with a 4-pin cable do not comply with Intel®'s PWM fan specification. When using this type of CPU fan, you can not reduce the CPU fan speed even if you set the CPU Q-Fan Mode to [PWM]. CPU Fan Profile [Optimal] Allows you to set the appropriate CPU fan performance. When set to [Optimal], the CPU fan automatically adjusts depending on the CPU temperature. Set this item to [Silent] to minimize fan speed for quiet CPU fan operation, or [Performance] to achieve maximum CPU fan speed. Configuration options: [Optimal] [Silent Mode] [Performance Mode] Chassis Fan1/2 Speed [xxxxRPM] or [Ignored] The onboard hardware monitor automatically detects and displays the chassis fan speed in rotations per minute (RPM). If the fan is not connected to the chassis, the specific field shows N/A. Select [Ignore] from the item options to disable chassis fan speed monitoring. Chassis Q-Fan1 Control [Disabled] Allows you to enable or disable the ASUS Q-Fan feature that smartly adjusts the chassis fan speeds for more efficient system operation. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled] • The Chassis Q-Fan1 function is available only on CHA_FAN1. • The C h a s s i s F a n P r o f i l e M o d e item appears when you enable the C h a s s i s Q - F a n C o n t r o l feature. Chassis Fan Profile Mode [Optimal] Allows you to set the appropriate performance level of the chassis Q-Fan. Configuration options: [Optimal] [Silent Mode] [Performance Mode] Power Fan Speed (RPM) [xxxxRPM] or [N/A] The onboard hardware monitor automatically detects and displays the power fan speed in rotations per minute (RPM). If the fan is not connected to the power fan connector, the specific field shows N/A. VCORE Voltage, 3.3V Voltage, 5V Voltage, 12V Voltage The onboard hardware monitor automatically detects the voltage output through the onboard voltage regulators. ASUS P5WD2 4-37
