RPM Mode
RPM Mode allows you to set the fan speed at its fixed value when the CPU temperature
drops 75
o
C and below.
• When the CPU temperature reaches 75
o
C, the fan automatically runs at full speed to
protect the CPU.
• Fan Xpert 2 may not be able to detect the fan speed if you install the fan with an
external control kit for rotation speed.
• Fan Xpert 2 only supports fans with 4-pin and 3-pin connectors. If you install a 2-pin
fan, it can only run at its full speed.
• If you change the CPU or chassis fans, you must repeat the Fan Auto Tuning process.
