When the operating temperature in the CPU or the PC case continues to rise, The Smart Fan will be activated.
Meanwhile, the CPU and PC case cooling fans will increase speed. As a result, noise will increase. This is
normal.Generally, the operating temperature should decrease. When the PC is operating in a bad environment or
processing complicated operations for an extended period of time, or if the fans fail, the temperature may not go
down successfully, the Over Heat icon will continuously blink to remind you that the temperature of the operating
environment is too high. When this happens, we strongly recommend you move this PC to a more proper
environment, reduce the CPU operating speed, or check to see if the CPU or case fans are functioning normally
(Open the case while the PC turned off, then turn on the PC to check if the fans are functioning normally). When
the computer is overheated, the PC will be in an unstable state. Damages caused by overheating are not covered
by the warranty.
More performance from the system
The EZ-Watcher provides you a way to gain more over-all performance from the system. However, you should be
cautious with this feature and keep in mind following notices:
1. Whether a CPU overclock adjustment is going to work is determined by the quality of the entire PC system
including the CPU, mainboard, and memory. We offer no guarantee on the successful CPU overclocking
adjustments.
2. Before overclock the CPU, please save all data and close all active programs. When an overclock adjustment
fails, the computer will hang on and abruptly reboot.
3. The CPU suppliers have pointed out that if the CPU is operating beyond its specification for a long period of
time, its life span might be shortened
