Monitors CPU/chassis fan speed and failure alarm
Automatic chassis fan on/off control
Read back capability that displays temperature, voltage and fan
speed
If you want a warning message to pop-up or a warning alarm to
sound when an abnormal condition occurs, you must install the VIA
Hardware Monitor utility. This utility is included in the CD that came
with the system board.

CPU Temperature Protection
The CPU Temperature Protection function has the capability of
monitoring the CPUs temperature during system boot-up. Once it
has detected that the CPUs temperature exceeded the CPU
temperature limit defined in the BIOS, the system will automatically
power-off after 5 warning beeps.
CPU Fan Protection
The CPU Fan Protection function has the capability of monitoring the
CPU fan during system boot-up and will automatically power-off the
system once it has detected that the CPU fan did not rotate. This
preventive measure has been added to protect the CPU from
damage and insure a safe computing environment.
Over Voltage
The Over Voltage function allows you to manually adjust to a higher
core voltage that is supplied to the CPU. Although this function is
supported, we do not recommend that you use a higher voltage
because unstable current may be supplied to the system board
causing damage.
CPU Overclocking
The CPU Overclocking function allows you to adjust the processors
bus clock. However, overclocking may result to the processors or
systems instability and are not guaranteed to provide better system
performance.
