That happened to my stock fan almost everytime but not for my coolermaster since i got it (2 days ago). Sometimes the fan spins when i power it on but then stop half way loading to windows, the led would even light up. My load temps are around 37C
Specs are:
3000+ venice @2.2
DFI LP Ultra-D
7800gt
ocz platinum rev2
I have CnQ disabled and i've also switched to another fan header but it's still the same. Temps at idle are 25-27C
Like the title says, my cpu fan doesn't spin up when i turn the power on. I made a thread the other day about the same problem with the stock fan so i went out yesterday and bought the xp120 and a 120mm coolermaster fan and the problem still exists. It only spins when i push the fan blade and/or...
So just now (and i noticed this yesterday too) my stock hsf wouldn't power up even after loading to windows, the fan was moving a bit but wasn't spinning. I had to use my finger to get it going. I'm assuming that this is a sign of it dying?
Standard i guess, i use whatever the default controls are. For most fps it's obviously wasd, space bar for jump, ctrl for crouch etc. but for some games like FEAR or Call Duty where some controls are a bit different i just adjust to it.
It wouldn't be a problem if the memory was already in and then you put the heatsink on would it? or is the xp120 installation harder when you do it that way?
Hey Astral how come you never used the backplate that was supplied? Or is there one on the dfi already? I'm looking to buy this hsf pretty soon so i want to make sure. :)
Sorry about the thread hi-jack, thought i might as well ask in an existing thread on the same topic rather than making...
Can somebody explain this sata port problem to me please? If i read correctly it's the reason why some chips won't go over 230ish fsb then? I think i might have that problem if it's true because my chip WILL NOT even go past 2ghz (using 3000+ venice of course)
