speedfan config???

[Matt Lobegeiger]

Just wondering if someone would be kind enough to help me make sense of
my speedfan readings... I have an Athlon XP 2000+ on a Gigabyte GA-7VA
motherboard with one (tiny) 13gb hard drive. As far as fans go there's
the cpu fan, of course, connected to the correct connector, a case fan
connected to the cas fan connector on the mobo and another case fan
connected directly to a power source plug.

I've gone through the help manual and I get what they're on about but it
doesn't clear up how to figure out which reading is for which device.

This is the detection info:

Win9x:NO 64Bit:NO GiveIO:YES SpeedFan:YES
I/O properly initialized
Linked ISA BUS at $0290
Linked VIA VT8235 SMBUS at $5000
Found nVidia TNT2 Model 64 / TNT2 Model 64 Pro

Linked nVidiaI2C1 SMBUS at $3D403637

SMART Enabled for drive 0
Found ST313021A (13.0GB)
End of detection

This is my config info:
Temps:
Label Chip Sensor Sample BUS Address
Temp1 IT8712F Temp1 34C ISA $290
Temp2 IT8712F Temp2 -55C ISA $290
Temp3 IT8712F Temp3 -55C ISA $290
Local LM90 Local 50C VIA SMBus $4C
Remote LM90 Remote 53C VIA SMBus $4C

Fans:
Label Cihp Sensor Sample BUS Address
Fan01 IT8712F Fan1 4219 RPM ISA $290
Fan02 IT8712F Fan2 5819 RPM ISA $290
Fan03 IT8712F Fan3 0 RPM ISA $290

Speeds:
Label Chip Sensor BUS Address
Speed01 IT8712F Pwm1 ISA $290
Speed02 IT8712F Pwm2 ISA $290
Speed03 IT8712F Pwm3 ISA $290


I don't care about the voltages right now so I didn't list them.

So I'm guessing there's 3 useful temp readings: 34, 50 & 53. I'm also
guessing the highest is the CPU but what are the other two? Mobo & HDD?
HDD & case? something else? The two fans are obviously the two that are
plugged into the mobo but which is which?

Any help appreciated.

thanks

Temp1 = case temp
Local = temp measured from the internal CPU temperature sensor?
Remote = temp measured from the m/b CPU temperature sensor?
Or would Local and Remote be the other way round?

The only temperatures you usually get are case, and CPU temps.

Fan1 will probably be the fan connected into 'Fan1', and Fan2 will
probably be the fan connected into 'Fan2'. On the m/b next to the
connectors they usually have 'Fanx'. The one plugged into the power
directly can't report a speed though, only the ones plugged into the
m/b.

IIRC there is no mainboard CPU temp sensor on his board, it relies on
the on-die thermal diode of the Athlon chip.

I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my
neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in
hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone
marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow
transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:

So which of those do you think is that reading and what is the other
reading?

Hi Matt, you could safely unplug both case fans for a short while to test
what reading you then have. That`ll give you the cpu reading. Then connect
up the case fans one at a time to read them. Got me ?. best wishes..J
