    OTES MOSFET Fans

    Ice - cheers a bunch for the diagrams. I'll try finding a bit of perspex and cutting it to see if diverting the OTES exhaust does anything for my system. Been running my PC at least 10 hours since I changed my FanEQ and all is good. Temperatures a fine and noise is minimal (I don't even have to...

    OTES MOSFET Fans

    Rolio - yes, at 4400rpm they are quiet, although my system is very quiet when they turn off all together. 5900rpm leaves a piercing sound that I could hear from downstairs with no ambient noise. Was annoying as hell. AAC - My PWM is 37c right now. Thanks for the post.

    OTES MOSFET Fans

    With the manuals I've got they don't seem to tell me much about it, other than what they do in minimal detail and how to enable them. Just played 10 minutes of HL2. The OTES fans kicked in to about 4200-4400rpm, used to be 5700-5900 (full speed), after my SYS temp reached about 38c (usually...

    OTES MOSFET Fans

    Okay, time to experiment. I just went into FanEQ and set it to 'enabled' for OTES 1 + 2. I then left it for a few minutes and noticed there was a 1-2c increase in system and power management temperatures. Looking at those temperatures now after using Windows for about 5 minutes with a few...

    OTES MOSFET Fans

    Just to clear some things up - By 'traditional thermometer' I was referring to the wall thermometers you get with the red liquid that measures room temperature. I was comparing that to what the uGuru tells me. The uGuru will tell me the room temp even if the PC isn't on - so even after 12...

    OTES MOSFET Fans

    Ice - it's not a sensor I'm measuring the real room temp from, it's a traditional thermometer. Room temperature in the UK averages 21c and it's not that hot today. The 'room temperature' sensor in the PC however displays 25-6c even if I haven't used it in the last 12 hours. You can see the...

    OTES MOSFET Fans

    I've noticed my OTES fans on my Abit Fatal1ty AN8-SLI seem to be a little too noisy. I can blow on them lightly to slow them down and see if it's there where the noise is coming from, and it is. The uGuru panel on my case reports 1 as 5900RPM or so and 2 as 5600RPM or so. I'm just wondering...

    SATA Driver Disk

    I recently received a new computer but want to make sure I've got everything I need in the event of my system messing up. It's a pre-built custom rig with a 250Gb Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 SATA hard drive. Is it supposed to come with a floppy disk for SATA drivers or will my WinXP automatically...

    Windows Loading - Restarting/BSOD

    Okay, I forgot to uncheck the automatic restart but I seem to have found disk warnings from when I started up my PC this morning (I got another BSOD/Restart and fixed it with 'last known good config'. There's about 20 of them so I'll just post the earliest one (in words). Event Type: Warning...

    Windows Loading - Restarting/BSOD

    Some times when I boot up my PC it reboots my Win XP at the Windows Load screen, with the blue load bar thing. Today it gave me one in the form of a BSOD, although too fast to read. The thing I've noticed about these reboots is they seem to happen once I've installed software the previous day or...

    No love for the Abit AN8-SLI (non-fatality)?

    I can agree to bad temp readings here. Apparently my X2 4400+ is running at 45c now and around 52c when in load. It also says my room temp is 30c right now (and as soon as I boot my PC up). Can't be, otherwise I'd notice the heat in my room - average room temp in Britain is 21c, and it's average...

    Tracing Proxies

    I'm an administrator at a forum who has to deal with some malicious users who like to use proxies and new accounts often to attempt to get around me. I'm just wondering if there's any free software to enter their proxy IP and find their real IP as confirmation as to whether or not that person is...
