Environmental Temperature Control
The thermal control sensor monitors the CPU temperature in real time and will turn
on the thermal control fan whenever the CPU temperature exceeds a user-defined
threshold. The overheat circuitry runs independently from the CPU. It can continue to
monitor for overheat conditions even when the CPU is in sleep mode. Once it
detects that the CPU temperature is too high, it will automatically turn on the thermal
control fan to prevent any overheat damage to the CPU. The onboard chassis
thermal circuitry can monitor the overall system temperature and alert users when
the chassis temperature is too high.
CPU Overheat LED and Control
This feature is available when the user enables the CPU overheat warning function
in the BIOS. This allows the user to define an overheat temperature.
Auto-Switching Voltage Regulator for the CPU Core
The auto-switching voltage regulator for the CPU core can support up to20A current
and auto-sense voltage IDs ranging from .8375V to 1.6V. This will allow the regulator
to run cooler and thus make the system more stable.
TM2/CPU VRM Overheat
When the CPU reaches 70°C and above (Overheat), the CPU will slow down and
CPU Voltage will decrease to reduce CPU power consumption and VRM heat
dissipation.
When CPU temperature reaches 78°C (*Default) and above, the system will go into
the throttling state. The Overheat LED and Alarm Buzzer will be turned on. The CPU
performance will drop 50%. When this happens, you can go to the Health Monitor
Setting in the BIOS to reset CPU Overheat Temperature.
VRM Protection
When the CPU VRM temperature reaches the threshold preset by the user in the
BIOS, the system will go into the TM2 Mode. The CPU will slow down, the VRM
current will drop to prevent the VRM from overheat. (The settings are: 88°C,
*98°C
,
108°C.) (*Default)
