Hi everybody, i am having problems with the cpu fan's connector of the motherboard, my configuration is :
amd fx 8320
2x4gb kingston hyper fury
2x4gb crucial ballistic sport
radeon r7 nitro 4gb
when i connect the cooler (arctic v7 pro 2) to the cpu_fan's connector, it didn't work; but if i connects it to the sys _fan_ 1, it works well.
i tried with the amd cooler that was in the box with the processor, and it works with the sys_fan_1 but no with the cpu_fan
Please help me.
thank you so much and sorry for my bad english
-
get a new system board or use another fan header is the only option you got
-
the easy tune gives me the cpu temperature, is this number correct? or it depends if the CPU FAN is coneccted?
-
The CPU temperature reading should be correct anyway
-
ok. thank you, but the cpu shuts down when it reachs high temperature, the thing is WHY it reachs this temperatura (80-90ºC) could you help me?
-
Perhaps not enuf air through your case? - temps reported in the bios same?
CPU heatsink mounted correctly?
I see your CPU fan is only 92mm you should go 120mm depending on your location (Alaska/Africa?/ room temp)
Inside the case feels like an oven? get better airflow installed .. see a literate local computer guy for help.
-
in the bios the temp is :79ºC for the 8 processors.
i am in argentina and the temp of my room is very hight, is true, but the case has 3 140 mm fan and 2 120 mm fan, with the arctic v7.
i'll look the heatsink and the thermal compound
thank you men
-
Look point is not really number of fans installed but evenly mounted blowers (usually front/side) and suckers (back/top) hence air is moving through the case. More importantly the input air is extracted by at least same amount of fans.
Generally, in a good ventilated case, the idle CPU is no more than ~5-10C celsius above room temp - in my case here CPU is 37C while room is 30C right now. Keep this as a rule in mind.
-
i did what you said, i opened the case and clear the air flow by moving all the wire to the side . one fan was in the wrong way so i put it again.
i change the thermal paste of the processor and of the video card. i take the case to another room, which is colder, and the temperature decreases considerably
thank you so much
but i think that if the cpu fan connector is running well, the temperature would be lower
-
Not sure what your cpu fan rpms/speed actually is, where it is plugged in now, but I guess constant full speed (?) hence nothing more your small cpu fan can do. You may be able to drop temp a little more by leaving the cover off.
The CPU fan header is just speed controlled hence more silent (less rpm) under ambient temperatures - it won't give you more rpms!
-
hi men, i got it. here is some pics about the temps and the rpm. i have 5 fans, the cpu fan (on sys fan 1) and the video card fans, but i can see the speed only of 2 of the fans and the video card's fan. you know why?
realice that i was only downloading games from internet, is a normal temperature?

Sorry but I can't read anything - too small!
-
right click and open in a new tab , works ?
-
i bought to more 140 fann jeje
-
right click and open in a new tab , works ?
sort of, yes!
I see your CPU load temperature is 65C which is a bit on the high side - max safe temp for your CPU is 62C
-
yes is true, any solution?
-
Perhaps move to Alaska? :P
Seriously, I am sure you can figure this one ::)

hi men, i took the motherboard to gigabyte and they fixed the cpu fan connector.
i took the sentey 750w to the warranty and they changed it for a new supplie.
i have to assemble all and try it :o :o
