use the recovery console fix the mbr n boot sector

I have juz flashed to this bios and this bios works like a charm for me. My OCZ VX Value needs less voltage than before to do 250FSB.

hey guys
3mths old++ mobo start having chipset fan problems, its grinding and slipping and what not... i read its quite a common problem... what kind of replacement can i look for? i can't possibly take it back to lowyat for warranty claim bcoz i'm not in malaysia anymore.

thing to note is that the video card actually sits above the fan too... so i can't just go for a "bigger" fan right... any fans you guys can recommend? the url etc etc from ebay or online shops will be good.

thanks!

CcL your topic is merged. Please continue here.

take out old one, put a bigger heatsink on it, can put bigger fan on heatsink without kacau vga card

I face this problem b4 with my abit mobo, supplier talking fan not included in warranty

u can use the Vantec Iceberq...it fits perfectly...summore got LED...hope it helps....

hmmm actually i've ordered the vantec iceberq4 (not pro version!)
however i've read that some people actually drill new holes or mount the fan sideways etc.... wats wrong?

u sure can fit just nicely? thanks antonio

Be sure to post before and after temps... Interested in changing out the NB fan in my NF4 SLI-D if the temp drop is significant...

i dun have any problems with my iceberq chipset cooler....


juz do....i will gurantee the diffrence...either temp lower or higher depends on the fan output...and also other airflow elements....but after i changed to iceberq...i notice the cooler is hotter to touch compared to the DFI heatsink fan...

// antonio_zth :

whats your temp before and after install the iceberq???

Evogenix

at first run i was dissapointed on how much increment on the temp (-+12) from the original heatsink to the vantec iceberq 4....then after a throughly check i found out that the clip on one of the side is not properly fitted...then after i put back all together and did a custom clip temp drop was around 3-5 degress from stock cooler...

in other words:

stock Chipset cooler + stock settings = 40c (idle) 43c (Full load)

stock Chipset cooler + overclocked 250 HTT 1.6v CPU 3.2v Ram 1.6v Chipset = 42c (idle) 46c (Full load)

Vantec Iceberq + stock settings = 35c (idle) 41c (Full load)

Vantec Iceberq + overclocked 250 HTT 1.6v CPU 3.2v Ram 1.6v Chipset = 38c (idle) 41c (Full load)

all values are achieve using full blast of the Vantec Fan and some cool air from CrossFan (Stacker's Mobo Fan)

is this betul? staff at lyp said all hynic chip ram cant run on dfi amd64 mb? if like tat, i want to sell out my dt-t43 liao , ~_~''

It doesn't welcome hynix, but seems some release bios fix it...
and if OC, i dun think wil go ok...

Just now my chipset fan suddenly went monster sound, I have no idea how come this happened. I have to keep adjust the fan until the monster sound gone. Anyone experienced this before?

What kind of monster sound? Is it your pci-e graphics card touching on it?

can run but cannot overclock well only..
haven test the latest BIOS so no sure whether it gonna fix it or not

monster sound like got 80 dba(assume). My pci-e card not touching on it. after I adjust the chipset fan, the sound has gone now. wonder what happen to it.

bearing off balance???

Did u use AS5?
I did a polish of the old heatsink took out the steel plate paste some AS5
and running a vantec 82mm fan, idle at 38-39, load at 41-43...
also running XP90c HSF...but i think using vantec iceberg should have a better temp, maybe the AS5+polish?

Edit: this is at 260mhz running on stock chipset heat sink....
