Chassis Fan Point1 Duty Cycle (%)
When the temperature source is lower than the temperature of P1, the fan will operate at
the duty cycle of P1. When the temperature source is higher than the temperature of P1,
the duty cycle will be determined according to P1-P2 and the temperature source. Use
the <+> or <-> keys to adjust the fan/pump duty cycle.
Allow Fan Stop
This function allows the fan to run at 0% duty cycle when the temperature of the source is
dropped below the lower temperature.
Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
Water Pump+ Q-Fan Control
Allows you to set the Water Pump+ operating mode.
[Auto Detect] Detects the type of installed fan/pump and automatically switches
the control modes.
[DC Mode] Enables the Q-Fan Control feature in DC mode for 3-pin fan/pump.
[PWM Mode] Enables the Q-Fan Control feature in PWM mode for 4-pin fan/
pump.
Water Pump+ Profile
Allows you to set the appropriate performance level of the assigned fan/pump. When
selecting [Manual], we suggest raising your fan/pump duty to 100% if your CPU
temperature exceeds 75°C. Please be noted CPU performance will throttle due to
overheating with inefficient fan/pump duty.
Configuration options: [Standard] [Silent] [Turbo] [Full Speed] [Manual]
The following items appear only when Water Pump+ Profile is set to [Standard], [Silent],
[Turbo], or [Manual].
Water Pump+ Q-Fan Source
The assigned fan/pump will be controlled according to the selected temperature
source.
Configuration options: [CPU] [MotherBoard] [VRM] [Chipset] [T_Sensor] [Multiple
Sources]
Water Pump+ Step Up
Step up allows you to adjust the time delay before the fan rotation speed increases
(level 0 is an instantaneous change in speed). The higher the level, the slower the
change in speed, and may also result in less noise, but this will also cause slower
heat dissipation.
Configuration options: [Level 0] [Level 1] [Level 2] [Level 3] [Level 4] [Level 5]
Water Pump+ Step Down
Step down allows you to adjust the time delay before the fan rotation speed decreases
(level 0 is an instantaneous change in speed). The higher the level, the slower the
change in speed, which may result in longer period with more noise.
Configuration options: [Level 0] [Level 1] [Level 2] [Level 3] [Level 4] [Level 5]
Water Pump+ Speed Low Limit
Allows you to set the lower speed limit for assigned fan/pump. A warning message will
appear when the limit is reached; the warning message will not appear if
[Ignore] is
selected.
Configuration options: [Ignore] [200 RPM] [300 RPM] [400 RPM] [500 RPM] [600
RPM]
