    Unreally big powers and 0 RPM fans

    Tried the latest BIOS released on April 18, 2019. No luck. Tried specifying fan types in BIOS, PWM or voltage control, rather than leaving it on auto. Again no improvement. Guess we've hit an impasse unless Gigabyte wants to do something about the issue. I'll hit up their tech support and...

    Unreally big powers and 0 RPM fans

    It's definitely not another conflicting tool that I am aware of. Windows is reasonably fresh, about 6+ month old UEFI install of Windows 8.1, and the only monitoring software that I knowingly run is your HWiNFO64, with HWMonitor as my only backup (not running normally). Software I may run...

    Unreally big powers and 0 RPM fans

    As an end user, how do we know if it's an out of range value or an actual zero value? The same goes for the obviously high value of 20k+ for my System 3 fan. I would think it should be a valid RPM value to the monitoring software, unless there is a defined threshold for max and min. If out of...

    Unreally big powers and 0 RPM fans

    So, after the system has been restarted, the behavior seems mostly the same. Still getting zero minimums for all and a 20k+ RPM max on System 3, but it takes time before those readings occur. And again, a simple restarting of the software returns all values to normal. As for any sort of system...

    Unreally big powers and 0 RPM fans

    So, put the machine to sleep for several hours, and now after waking the system, it appears HWMonitor has likely run into whatever is tripping up HWiNFO64. A new sensor has appeared labeled FANIN1, and it's readings are strangely similar to the CPU OPT sensor in HWiNFO64. The behavior is...

    Unreally big powers and 0 RPM fans

    So now, after running simultaneously for over an hour, HWiNFO64 is reporting minimums of zero for both CPU and System 3, while HWMonitor is not. [attachment=3395] [attachment=3396]

    Unreally big powers and 0 RPM fans

    Not sure if it's related, but I just looked at the fan connections on the motherboard and CPU OPT is not even connected to anything. The fan in question is connected to the SYS_FAN2 header. Is it possible that upon initial startup, HWiNFO64 is misidentifying the fan, then later for some...

    Unreally big powers and 0 RPM fans

    I went ahead and ran HWMonitor 1.40 and it's reporting reasonable RPM values for the fans it's showing. [attachment=3392] It just so happens "CPU OPT" is a 3-pin persistent LED fan atop the chassis, and the LED display never scrambles on it, which is to say, the RPMs of the fan can be...

    Unreally big powers and 0 RPM fans

    Version 6.04-3720 is still giving 0 values for fan RPM Under the GIGABYTE AX370-Gaming K3 (ITE IT8686E) [attachment=3394]
