GA-890FXA-UD5: heat problem with 890FX Chipset

[Calan]

Perhaps I can have someone help out this forum. I've assembled my new computer with the following components:

• CM690
• Gigabyte GA-890FXA-UD5 6Kerner with AMD 1090 + 4 GB GSkill + Noctua ECO ND-14
• Nvidia 470 + MK13 (of precious video cards)
• 2 2.5 "HD, 1 * 2,5 Postville, DVD burner, floppy
• 7 * 12cm Silent Wings with VR (NestQ 8channel)

Unfortunately, according to HWMonitor the temperature of the 890FX chipset in idle mode as early as the 40 degrees is reached. The graphics card is hot by the way, despite 3.5-V control of the 2 Silent Wings fan only about 65-70 degrees (the CPU temps are below 40 degrees). The times are so (not) the problem. I wonder if my board is defective. Temps seem to me that that is very unusual. Gigabyte's statement came as the the chip to 95 degrees tolerated. Have the stresses in the Tweaker setup this far down regulated possible.

• NB: 0.95 V
• Link HT: 1.1 V
• NB / PCIe / PLL 1.5
• CPU
• NB VID 1.1
• CPU 1.3V

Furthermore, I set the 1.35 V of GSkill ECO modules in the BIOS NOT (it only go 1.41 or 1.31 V) occurs in the latter would crash. Please help me to sort out this issue.

I'm not sure if the value is actually the chipset temperature. Before, Gigabyte, the temperature of the chipset never read, but used to connect the chips for the fan control. The value is then interpreted by universal tools like Speedfan or HWM as temperature, because many manufacturers use the motherboard as a temperature sensor. Accordingly, some users had allegedly chipset temperatures above 100°C according to the tools that has ever voted not. It could therefore be that the one you suggested as a chip set temperature value is not a temperature sensor. That the graphic card is only showing 70°C over the temperature sensor means does not mean that is not hot. Often the VRM components are hotter than the GPU. With what tool you let you view the values? The tool should display the values directly in the game when you go out from the game (Alt-Tab), the temperature falls to 10-20°C (graphics down clocks, VGPU is reduced).

Do you have a screenshot showing the temperatures under load? The inserted shows no problematic temperatures, thus you can not say as much. How much air flow is actually bringing the graphics cooler? It might be that the cooling block while the graphics card keeps cool, but heats up its surroundings properly, because the air flow in the housing is so low. If you have the case fans throttled heavily, then alternate the times a little faster, to observe the thermal behavior.

Thanks for the information. The Temps mW quite agree: Displayed in HW monitor value in TMPIN0 agrees with the PC Health Display the Easy Tune Pro 5 (and also with the Bios Health). In idle it is 42 degrees (surfing the Inet). I'm Thinking if I am killed me infrared thermometer down times to measure directly. Are there other tools still can read the temps? Alternative: for this board may have a extra cooler? Ctrl F1 with the values in the BIOS can not unfortunately change (that happens it does nothing when you press this key combination). Maybe there so the next update as a way (?). Also I am very sorry to tell that I am not having any screenshots. For the cooler graphics card: Idle: 2 Silent Wings to 3.5 V = 43 degrees at 12 volts = 36 degrees. I've added the graphics under load times while running all fans at 3.5 V and the graphics card with undervoltet 0.912 V. It is also striking that the chipset cooler on the rear fan is very hot - the fan before going on the occasion of currently "sucking" on "blowing" change. An increase in the volt. from 3.5 to 12 V gave way, there is no real improvement in 1 degree max. What I noticed straight now I turn the Volt. the fan at the graphics card to 12V also drops the temp of the NB from 42 to 39 degrees - perhaps a modification would be useful. What temp, users (yes, the heat pipe seems to be the same) here in the forum with the 890GX chipset? Easy Tune 6 confirms the Temps, according to the system temperature is TMPIN0 TMPIN1 and the CPU temperature. Funny in the latter is only the cores according to the HW Mon 10 degrees have fewer.

Which tool you used for the graphics card? Try Furmark times or at least as Milkyway @ home and check the temperatures directly under load. Anyway, it seems as if your graphics has the chipset and the MoBo (because yes, the temperatures go down, if you high revels the graphics card fan. The case fans need not turn you back. By you ruin you blow into the airflow and the temperatures rise well above. What you could try.? The graphics card in the lower PCIe X16. Then you could maybe even a "separation wall" in sequence, which separates the chipset / CPU section of the graphics.

So times have the Furmark run a few minutes. Interestingly, if I'm running both GPU fan at 12 V, the heat generated in the system is not so bad. Obviously, the problem appears not only in the right "dose" of the RPM of the fans but also in the hard disks are used (the Temps at Anno1404 rise to as much faster as well graphics charged in addition to CPU and HD). Will set next step if the graphics card to the other times PCIe16 port. Sun have the computer rebuilt and installed a 14cm Noiseblocker BlackSilentPRO PK-1, speed fixed at 12 V (near rear fan ceiling fan directly above the CPU fan as there is the hot spot). Furthermore, the vents in the Graka left open. A displacement of the graphics to another PCI slot was not feasible for reasons of space. As to date looks like the graphics card heats definitely the NL. The measures have brought about 7 degrees profit under load and about 2 degrees below Idle. The graphics card fan (2 * 12cm Silent Wings ran the test with 6-7 V, the rear fan was against a Noiseblocker Multiframe exchanged S1 (Speed at 12 V fixed). Please find attached a screenshot of HV monitor after about 1 hour Anno 1404 . and then the results in idle mode the graphics card was undervoltet to 0.912 V All other fans are down regulated at 3.5 V -. so that even when playing the computer is very quiet.

If you think the Noctua NH-D14, that tower heatsink with 140mm fan in the middle, then you're advising all right. I have also, and he balances the disadvantage of a tower cooler almost completely, namely the passive cooling of the MB components. Example: One DFI 790FX motherboard of mine has an idle Chipset temp in the BIOS of over 75°! With the 14cm fan, the temp drops below 70 degrees. That is, first, you've already done the best to cool the chipset (yes, not everyone has such a cooler) and secondly it can cope with 80 degrees. A GPU tolerate brief periods at the 110°. Then you start to smell musty, but already to the graphics board. Now my questions about this: What is the "Analog Device ADT7475? Normally one has only the upper part, as you "ITE IT87. There, everything looks normal from the bottom and so are often completely wrong values or ranges run over (-2147483648 ....). This ad is not well taken seriously. Otherwise, you have the latest version of the tools? This has often come to me already incorrect values that have been fixed in the new version. Spread Spectrum was only when overclocking is not always remain. This is only there to meet EMI specifications, in everyday life need not be advantageous. Especially with the SB and its SATA controller, make sure, because the hard drives must support the feature dedicated to work and vice versa.

I dont think AMD NB runs that hot. I havent used it extensively but from whatever little time I have used the new AMD platform I know it doesnt get too hot.
As for readings, I would try GIGABYTE EasyTune6 for more accurate info of temps. It comes on the CD with the board or you can download one from their websites.

The Tuning Tool "Gigabyte EasyTune 6" Gigabyte reminds of a Formula 1 steering wheel attached to and extends the Gigabyte motherboards simple version of the software. All such adjustments are already available directly in the main interface. To find about the right of the steering wheel the "CIA MIB", with which the system is clocked independently, depending on usage.
