Overclocking warning

Kuhan · 19 Apr 2007 at 18:39

recently built my new computer everything seems fine but when i open up the gigabyte and check the temps it comes up with a warning sign next to it, just wanted to know if this is normal. Also i have not overclocked anything yet.

Temps are fine, it does it on mine too, it's because the freezer 7 pro is thermally controlled and because the cpu temp isn't high, it's only running at 500rpm ish which is very low, it's showing a warning for low cpu fan rpm which doesn't matter, and the second for having no system fan which I would recommend but again ignore.

ah ok thanks a lot, btw i was thinking of overclocking to about 2.4 with the intel stock cooler, what kind of temps are the max i can push it?

That isn't a temperature warning, its a fan speed warning. Presumably you're running with the fan control on and it's just running slowly because you aren't loading the CPU. Run Orthos or TAT or something and the speed should go up and the warning will go away.
