Does your board support Speedfan? List it here!

As I think this is an important feature anyone who wants to build a silent pc I'm trying to get a list of the boards that work or not with this program.

Place your post even if your board doesn't support it!

-Abit Kt7a (no raid): no fan control

Gerwin · Post by **Gerwin** » Thu Feb 13, 2003 1:57 pm

I've tried when I had one. Didn't work. Most Asus mobo's don't let you control the fans.

IWill XP 333 & 333R - Yes, the CPU header and the front case fan header.

My Antec case fan scales smoothly from 0 to 100 percent (I keep it at around 20%).
My PC P&Cs only go from 90 to 100 percent. Anything less than that, and they just turn off.

My Shuttle SS51G supports SpeedFan. I'm pretty sure all of the other SFF Shuttle boards do as well.

With my Tyan Tiger MP I was able to monitor the temps (didn't try fan control), but I was having a even harder time rebooting than normal when using speedfan. Sometimes when I go "restart" from Win2k, everything shuts down fine and the screen blanks out, but then the BIOS screen never comes back. With speedfan, it happened way more often.

Did you look at this:

SpeedFan supported hardware list?

He's not listing all existing motherboards. only the ones he tested or receved reports

TheMuffinMan · Post by **TheMuffinMan** » Fri Feb 21, 2003 7:40 pm

I sent him a report a while back, and mine's not on there....so it would be a good idea to use both experiences from this forum, and that list.

A7M266
A7V133
and A7V no go...

the pwm regulation is there but it does nothing to any of the fans

Speedfan works with one of the three motherboard fan connectors on my P4PE so I connect the CPU to that connector.

*BUT* someone on the ASUS Boards Forum said he once got Speedfan to control another case fan connector by 'fluke' -- it suddenly started working after he used Asus Probe software and got some software error or something. It does seem in principle possible to control another case fan then.

I really wish I could get it working with one more. I wrote the author of Speedfan but never heard back.

SpyderCat · Post by **SpyderCat** » Sun Feb 23, 2003 3:35 pm

On my ASUS A7V333 only the CPU-fan is monitored, but Speedfan can't influence it's speed.
Another sensor reports 15 degrees C while the hardware is working for 12 hours in a 21 degrees C environment.
ASUS PROBE goes nuts when loaded together with Speedfan.
Some info from SMART is present, but apart from temperature it is not correct or not usefull.

I'll try it later once more, but for the moment it doesn't seem usefull

Regards, Han.

SpyderCat - I have the A7V333 Mobo too!

CPU Connector: Controlled by Mobo, as you say Speedfan can read but not control. I haven't tried turning Q-Fan off - maybe that might allow Speedfan to control it.

Case Connectors 1+2: Allows good control of the fans. Works well for me.

I also have that never changing 15 degree reading! Bizarre!

As for CPU fan control, I simply plug my CPU fan into one of the case connectors and control it with Speedfan that way. I leave the Q-Fan controlled CPU connector free. Q-Fan is good but Speedfan allows more flexibility, I find.

Hope that's of help

Soyo SY-TISU, a socket 370 motherboard which features cpu undervolting and PIII/Tualatin/Celeron processor support, works nicely with Speedfan on the cpu fan connector. Have not tested any of the other connectors, since I am not using any case fans.

I also have A7V333 (rev 1.04). PWM1/Speed01 in Speedfan controls BOTH Fan2 (Power) and Fan3 (Chassis) simultaneously. I did some beta testing for Alfredo for 4.07 and could never get more than 1 control from Speedfan. Enabling/disabling QFan didn't help me, but you can run QFan (for the CPU fan) and Speedfan at the same time. Seems Alfredo had a change of life round October 2002 (went to Uni?) and so hasn't had any time to update the prog, which is a shame.

That 15C temp is from the JTPWR sensor: you probably dont have a thermistor connected there hence the rather constant reading. If you get a thermistor on that header (IIRC 4k7, maybe 10k?) you can get some more useful readings.

egghat · Post by **egghat** » Mon Mar 10, 2003 4:26 am

But only the two case fans. The CPU fan is controlled by Asus Q-Fan (which for reasons beyond my understanding only goes down to 2/3 of the normal fan speed, e.g. a 2400 rpm fan will run with at least 1600 rpm and not slower, even if the CPU is cool as ice ...).

SpeedFan can only control the two other fans and only seems to set the speed of both fans simultaniously. Took me a while to figure that out.

So I have my CPU fan plugged on the case fan connector and control it with SpeedFan and my case fan is controlled by a ntc diode.

Bye egghat.

Soltek SL75-DRV4 doesn't work (officially; support told me, that it is not completly wired).

SpeedFan works with all three fans on my Asus P4PE w/ GbLan, SATA Raid and firewire. It also can control all three fans on my Asus P3B-F.

korsch · Post by **korsch** » Thu Mar 27, 2003 8:27 pm

Hmm, I have the P4PE/L and can only get SpeedFan to regulate one fan connector, which is consistent with the reports on the SpeedFan page. Maybe your P4PE uses a different chip to control fans, unless you are using the new SpeedFan version 4.08 and it does something my 4.07 version doesn't do...

twokatmew · Post by **twokatmew** » Thu Mar 27, 2003 8:42 pm

Yes, I'm using SpeedFan 4.08, and I have QFAN turned off. (Someone else was trying to use both SpeedFan *and* QFan.) SpeedFan has greater flexibility than QFAN, in that I can get the fans to run much more quietly with SpeedFan.

korsch · Post by **korsch** » Thu Mar 27, 2003 9:00 pm

I have Q-FAN turned off too, so I guess I'll give 4.08 a try. There is hope, hooray!

Asus A7N8X (non-deluxe) works perfectly, with Q-fan on even.

Wha? Are you sure? I have the non-plus version, and it definitely doesn't work.

Positive has worked for me, and continues to work. Gives me 3 temps, and controls for 2 fans. I have adjusted the fan speeds, however there is a slight lag <5 seconds, between adjustment and audible difference in the fans.
