BIOS. DMI, along with the appropriately networked software, is
designed to make inventory, maintenance and troubleshooting of
computer systems easier. Refer to chapter 4 for instructions on using
the DMI utility.
1.1.2 System Health Monitor Functions
The system board is capable of monitoring the following system
health conditions.
Monitors CPU/system temperature
Monitors 2.5V/3.3V/5V/12V/VCORE voltages
Monitors the fan speed of CPU fan 1 and chassis fan 1
Read back capability that displays temperature, voltage and fan
speed
Refer to the PC Health Status section in chapter 3 for more
information.
1.1.3 Intelligence
Over Voltage
The Over Voltage function allows you to manually adjust to a higher
core voltage that is supplied to the CPU. Although this function is
supported, we do not recommend that you use a higher voltage
because unstable current may be supplied to the system board
causing damage. Refer to Selecting the CPU Core Voltage in
chapter 2 for more information.
CPU Overclocking
The CPU Overclocking function allows you to adjust the CPUs bus
clock in 1MHz increment. However, overclocking may result to the
processors or systems instability and are not guaranteed to provide
better system performance. Refer to CPU Clock in the Frequency/
Voltage Control section in chapter 3 for more information.
