Zone 2 too hot - Intel PERL865 Motherboard
Wayne:
I have the same motherboard, and the same problem. Different case (Antec) with two case fans in the back, one on the side, as well as power supply, video, and cpu fans. I also see the "Zone 2" temperature get up to about 51 degrees during DVD processing. To see where the temperature sensors are, download the Intel D865Perl product specification on the Intel website - see page 42. There are three temperature sensors - one in the CPU die, a second one "B", and a third ambient temperature sensor located between the memory and the CPU - I _think_ that the ambient temperature sensor is shown as Zone 2 - but there is nothing on the Intel website or technical documentation to know for sure. The Fans are NOT associated with the zones. With the exception f the processor fan (which plugs into a special slot), the order in which the fans are shown depends on which fan plugs into which slot in the motherboard. Again, I don't know how the fan plugs translate into the order on the Active montor. Perhaps someone else knows. Does anyone know anymore about this problem. Is there a location where we can add a fan to solve the (slight) overheating problem?

Since it peaks at 51º and only lasts for about an hour during rendering, I'm not too worried about over-heating, but the alarm becomes intrusive. So I have questions. My system has two case fans, both on the back. There is power supply fan, and a CPU fan. All four fans are attached to the motherboard. There is a fifth fan on the Display card. I'm confused because the Intel monitor only shows 3 zones. All three zones get warmer during rendering. The "Processor Zone" gets near the Red zone, but doesn't reach it. The monitor shows three zone temperature meters "Processor", "System 1", and "System 2". It shows three fans. "Fan 1", "Fan 2", and "Fan 3". I added the second case fan hoping to solve the problem, but it didn't make any difference. How can I know which fan is associated with which zone? How can I tell what "System Zone 2" is? How can I prevent "Zone 2" from getting too hot? Is there a way to permanently dismiss the alarm? It keeps coming back to the front and claiming control of the UI. |

Try blowing a stream of cool air directly onto one of the sensors while watching the indicated temperatures. Roby |
