Dont worry mate, my TForce550 giving me 23C when i priming. But use external sensor to check our own temp. My own thermometer show 44C , but window detect 23C.

why i install fan in my system fan cant detect the rpm speed ? even in bios also ?

I don't even use the tools included with the TF550 mobo CD..... too buggy

tools I use:
voltage/fan speed/temperature : Speedfan
cpu temp : Core Temp



.... no fancy utilities

Errr guys i wanna try to oc my proc but is my mobo good enough to do slight oc? lets say from 2.2ghz to 2.4ghz? my mobo is Gigabyte GA-M55SLI-S4 NF4 SLI

lol i told u already.. let us know ur bios option..
especially cpu voltage, ram voltage, ram timming setting, htt multiplier
u need to observe the bios than we will know can oc or not..
if u really want to try... increase the fsb from 200 to 220 in 2-5 incremental..

Guys,

I O/C my 3500+/M2N-E to:
FSB 230 / Mult 11x / HTT 4x / DRAM 533 4-4-4-12 / PEG disabled / stock volts

Run SP2004 8hrs ok, superPI ok.

But then I reboot, it stuck at the bios screen (Asus Logo).

Any comments?

normally we call them 'warm boot' and 'cold boot'..

actually we need to study about it further..
http://www.comptechdoc.org/hardware/pc/pcboot.html

for the simple way.. during POST.. cpu or ram not receive correct voltage to initiate them to on.. this could be bios problem psu or the mobo itself...
i'm also waiting the latest bios to resolve this issue...
me also using M2N-E.. it's rock stable when able to log windows..

Hmm I better try a bios update first and see how, hope its fixed. Thanks for the link.

can give me the link to down those 2 software??
thx!!

can i join??

anyway.. waiting for my ram first then only will assemble my nu rig

Bought it already ek bro? Nice parts u get there. Waiting ur oc result. What ram u wanna get? Mine still hold on at the moment...

Re-edit: Didn't see Samsung 2x512MB DDR2 533Mhz (incoming)

AMD 3500+ AM2 / Asus M2N-E / KVR533 1GB @ 2.7GHz, 1 .4250V (+50mV)
Idle CPU 41C, Mobo 44C // Load CPU 67C, Mobo 47C

Looks stable so far but I gotta get more cooling power at this speed.

aiyark.. kantoi at last

really have a tight budget.. only can afford 533MHz oni
for me, its worth upgrading from my old system la bro..!!
googling around and its a really big jump of upgrading

AMD 64 3500+ Orleans 2288Mhz
ASUS M2N-E
512MBx1 Corsair DDR2 533
Stock AMD cooler

bro... seriously your PSU voltage rail looks dangerous

+12v @ 11.3v is....

Bro, now I tension oredi, I took this screenshot early this morning b4 I came to work... what should my 12V be like? Please advise. Is this the one connect to the mobo? I got a 7600GT and also up my vcore from 1.42 to 1.425...
