With AMD platform substantially keeps increasing the speed of its CPU, it inevitably led to the annoying problem of high CPU operation
temperature at the same time. In order to prevent accidental failure of CPU fan, which could cause the burning down of the AthlonXP CPU,
we, AOpen, have meticulously developed a new technology, named, O.H.P. (Overheat Protection) Technology to protect them. Thanks to
the intelligent monitoring design of AOpen O.H.P. technology, user can now finally set their mind at ease even when fan failed to work
without fearing the possible damage of CPU,
Under the circumstances that CPU fan is running properly,
AthlonXP temperature should be way below the highest
temperature limit of 97
℃
. However, if CPU fan accidentally
becomes malfunction or improperly installed, the CPU temperature
would rocket abruptly, and you may find your system hang up or
crying over the smoking CPU if you haven’t installed AOpen O.H.P.
previously. With AOpen O.H.P. technology applied, the specific
thermal detection pins on AthlonXP CPU would sense voltage
difference when processor is overheated with fan failed, and the
overheat protection system would immediately send out a signal to
abort your system by cutting CPU electricity before any damage is
done. Unlike other manufacturers who use BIOS or software to
control the power supply of CPU, AOpen O.H.P. Technology is
purely hardware-controlled the minute after system boot-up, and
occupies no system resource. We are pleasant to phase in this
practical function on all AOpen AMD series motherboards to protect
customer’s valuable hardware and personal data.
