I've been watching temps, voltages etc in PC Wizard 07 as well. PCW07 and PC Probe always agree on 'CPU Temp' but PCW07 also shows figures for Core-1 and Core-2 and these are usually 3 to 4C above the CPU Temp. So, I don't know how PCW07 can say CPU Temp is 19C and at the same time say Core-1...

Well, I can now confirm that Q-Fan 2 works for the chassis fans .... sort of. I put 2 Scythe S-Flex 120mm/1600RPM/64CFM quiet fans on the case and a Scythe S-Flex 120mm/1200RPM/49CFM quiet fan on the CPU cooler (Thermalright Ultra 120). The CPU fan is connected to the mobo CPU_Fan header, the...

Hey Gorka ... after the Q-Fan CPU Fan feature failed, did you enable the Q-Fan Chassis Fan feature and try that with your exhaust fan connected to the CHA-1 header near the exhuast fan? As per my post just above, this pat is supposedly working at the moment.

Hi newschool, I was actually just readnig a response from a guy on the ASUS forums when you posted just now. He was on hold to ASUS for 2.5 hours and was finally given the name of a support person. Apparently Q-Fan is not working with the CPU fan at the moment (hopefully it will with a future...

Thanks for your response. Hmmmmm.... I wondered about a 4-pin PWM fan but the manual says nothing about this. Also, Q-Fan 2 is supposed to work on up to 4 chassis fans as well (modifying their speeds to maintain a user selected mobo temp in BIOS) and these fan headers are all 3-pin headers...

Thanks for the tip. Not sure this PC warrants that sort of expense, given the (now) relatively slow CPU. I might be better just adding better air cooling to this one (Big Typhoon or Zalman 7000Cu or whatever) and saving for a better PC down the track a little (dual core, PCIe, DDR2 etc etc)...

Thanks guys, PC Wizard 2007 showed that the multipler auto ramped back up when the CPU was loaded (eg. Prime95). For the moment I have disabled the CPU Enhanced Halt State (C1E) in the BIOS Advanced settings while I play around benchmarking some OC figures. With stock CPU and RAM voltages...

OK, I'll have a look in the BIO. But ... why would it suddenly start doing this after I change the RAM? It has never done it before in the 2+ years I've had this PC/mobo/CPU. Is it slowing the PC deliberately to prevent damage from some incompatibilty in hardware or BIOS settings?

Hi, I just received my order of Crucial Ballistix 2 x 1gb PC4000 RAM (BL2KIT12864Z503). This RAM was in the list of recommended RAM for my motherboard on the Crucial website. My motherboard is a Gibabyte GA-8IPE775 Pro (with latest BIOS update), CPU is a P4 550J HT (3.4ghz, 17x fixed...
