On that board, there must be such a fan control, because the fan (AMD boxed) runs only at 2/3 of its nominal speed. Up to now, I was not able to get this thing running at full speed. I had to use Speedfan in order to raise fan speed to 100%;-) Some other mainboards offer the possibility to change the behaviour of the fan by adjustable thresholds for CPU temperature. On my board, I miss this feature. Michael |

On my board, I miss this feature. But, you still have a way to control it, via software. You wouldn't be able to do that on a board with just a thermistor controlling the speeds. -- Abit KT7-Raid (KT133) Tbred B core CPU @2400MHz (24x100FSB) My server http://wesnewell.no-ip.com/cpu.php Verizon server http://mysite.verizon.net/res0exft/cpu.htm |

Download the AMD PowerNow! Dashboard and you can see if it's working.

I currently have Cool N Quiet disabled in my BIOS. I didn't think it would have that big of an impact on my processor's health, so I switched it off. With WinXP 64-bit about to come out, I'm rethinking this. Is there anyone using it and what benefits has it provided you (if any)? Well, I did run across one problem with CoolNQuiet... WoW thinks your hardware is completely different everytime you start it, so it kills your video settings everytime you start it. --JM |
