10. Notes on Usage
1) Checking CPU Compatibility
Please refer to
“
Compatible CPUs
”
on page 3 to confirm that your CPU is compatible with
CNPS8700 before using it.
2) Cautions During Booting
The computer system may automatically shut down when booting the computer after the system
monitoring program outputs a warning stating that the CPU fan is rotating slowly. In such a case,
fully turn the speed control knob in the clockwise direction before rebooting to disable the ‘CPU Fan
Detected’ option in BIOS, or set the CPU fan’s rotational speed to 1,150rpm or lower in the system
monitoring program.
Note)
Some motherboards fail to boot if the rotational speed of the CPU fan is below a certain rpm.
However, booting can be possible even at low fan rpm if the BIOS settings are updated. For
more information on updating your BIOS, please refer to the website of the motherboard
manufacturer. There are motherboards which fail to detect the rpm while operating the cooler
in Silent Mode, but this does not affect computing performance.
3) OVERCLOCKING
