Title: Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD5 - CPU VTT LEDs both light up on boot
Post by: Ommies on January 28, 2011, 09:06:37 pm

Hello all,

I'm building a new computer and things seem to be going OK but I just wanted to check to make sure I'm not making a costly mistake. Firstly, the build:

MB: Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD5
CPU: Intel i7 2600
RAM: 2x G.Skill Ripjaws XL F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL
GPU: Inno3D Geforce GTX 580
Case: HAF Advanced 912

My concern is that when the computer powers up the two CPU VTT LEDs both come on - one supposedly indicating an overvoltage or overloading and the other LED indicating normal working conditions. The 4 phase LEDs also light up. All these LEDs stay on until the operating system starts to load. After that all of the above mentioned LEDs turn off. The computer appears to work fine but I haven't done much with it yet.

Are the two CPU VTT LEDs coming on during boot a problem? Is it indicating that I've done something funky with power cables or I'm shorting something?

Thank you. I appreciate the help!

Hi and welcome to the Gigabyte Forum.

Stop worrying all is as it should be. The LEDs should all illuminate and then go out as POST checks and progresses. You only have any concern if they come back on and then you need to check why.
