CPU temperatures

[Lagu]

Hej Lagu.

PWM = Pulse Width Modulation
{trans. - Puls Bredd Modulationen}

You are blessed with a monitor which checks the running temperature of the metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) cluster close to the CPU, which regulates the rate of voltage delivered to the CPU and other items on the motherboard.

If you Overclock the CPU this would be a very important feature of the motherboard because the MOSFET cluster could run hot during heavy CPU activity.

If the MOSFET cluster gets too hot, the barrier between the MOSFET gate and the power channel would break down, then the motherboard and the CPU would get ZAPPED :shock:

All recent motherboards have this risk, but most don't have a PWM temperature monitor like you have.

Hope that helps.

Thanks AMDave. Your explanation is good for me to know. Pulsbredd Modulation, you have interpreted this word. Thanks.

Awesome!

And that is a two years old article!

Imagine what they could do today!! ;)

Hi

I have the Users Manual in front of me for my Termaltake CNPS7700 120 mm fan. I notice there is a Fan Speed Controller (Fan Mate 2) who enables control over noise and fan performance. But of any cause my reseller have not mount this control. There says if I use the Fan Mate I can turn up the speed so I can run in Normal mode wish not is possible if am crunching.

Specifications:
FAN

Bearing type: 2 Ball
Rotation Speed: 1.000-1.400 rpm +-10 % (Silent mode)
Rotation Speed: 1.400-2.000 rpm +-10 % (Low Noise Mode)

The fan uses to run at 1.800 rpm/min. I see it seems as the fan is set to run at 2000rpm and no Fan Mate needs. -10 percent is 200rpm lesser. However, I don’t know if a Fan Mate is good to have. I think perhaps I could get the fan to spin at 2000rpm the whole time.

I don´t know why it not was mounted. Perhaps the motherboard not supports it but I have a ABIT and I think it will support Fan Mate.

Any who have experience of speed and performance controllers?

i take it this is a case fan? in which case the control would usually fit into either a PCI slot or a floppy slot.
Could you not mount this yourself?

any system would support this. it is independent to the other components.

Hi

Perhaps I can. I stands in the Users manual how to do I think. The question is if it good the have or if I can be without. I will first talk to my reseller why they not have mounted it. This case fan is both to Intel and AMD and I don´t know if there is any restrictions.

I would definiately hook up the fan mate and run the fan at full speed if the noise doesn't bother you. The cpu needs the extra cooling in my opinion, I would never just have a heatsink and not run the fan. For what it's worth I use the Cooler Master water cooler , the self contained unit , and my cpu temps at 100% use and overclocked are never above 110 F. XP3200 running at 2.3 gig. Asus A7n8X board. :D
