First of, i have a zalman z9 plus tower with fan control and the rear exhaust fan has stopped working, its not affecting the temps too much but would like to sort it. I have had a look at the wirring and cant work out what the problem would be. all other fans work accordingly with the fan control...do i just need a new fan?
pics attached, its the black wire coming out of the top right that connects to the fan in question
next problem, i have the g.skill ripjaw x ddr3 pc3-12800c9 1600 MHz memory but if i have the memory options in the bios set to auto it loads the memory at 1333MHz...why?
also while using all cpu meter side bar gadget, it says my clock is 3701MHz but when i deactivate turbo mode in the bios it goes back to the standard 3400MHz
It seems that its using 100% frequency and i really do not know how to sort this out, i have tried loading the defualt cmos but nothing works. it was overclocked with smart6 which seems to have left the cpu using maximum freq even after going back to default
