justgot my asus p7p55d mobo
4gig ocz platinum 1333mhz ram
tuniq extreme cpu cooler

everytime i start the computer it says cpu fan error, and when i have cpu-z open the core speed of the processor goes from 1.2ghz to sometimes 2ghz then to 3.2ghz, is this normal or is it a indication my fan is not working?
plz help
 
So do you think I done it right?
I mean looking at the booklet I have the fan power connector in the 3-pin PWR_FAN socket, is this correct?
Because there is a cpu fan socket on the board but it has 4 pins but the power connector on the fan is only 3pins.
And windows is really slow think it has something to do with speedstep? If so I will disable it but only until I know 100% that the cpu cooler is defidently working, thanks man;)
 
Just 1 more quick question, I want to OC the i5, I have disabled speedstep and now my core speeds are staying the same which is great, but in the bios it will not allow me to change the cpu multiplier ot bclk at all, I press enter on it and nothing happens?
I also can not overclock my ati 4870 no more in the ati overdrive menu, there must be something enabled stopping any overclocking, right?
 
Another weird thing is the ram I brought is suppoed to be 1333mhz but it says this...

Alright I figured it out on my old asus mobo in bios i had to press enter then type numbers in but on this you type the numbers in then press enter:D
I have it oc'd to 3.2ghz so far and ram timings have gone to 7-7-7-18 and dram frequency has been reduced to 482mhz and cpu temps at high 50's is this ok on stock voltages?
Should I oc the i5 even more and then oc the ram?
am i correct in saying the dram frequency is the mhz speed of which 1 stick is of ram is running aat so 482 x 2 = 964mhz total speed?
Cause the ram i got should be 1333mhz so I guess i have to oc the ram to reach this speeds right?
:confused:
 
and my tuniq tower 120 extreme does not even feel warm, that tx-3 paste it came with was so hard to put on, maybe i didn not apply the paste correctly?
if thats the case i may buy some arctic silver 5 because its much easier to spread where as the tx-3 is like plastisine.
