BlackArchon Posted May 23, 2005 It's the chipset cooler. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PSS Posted May 23, 2005 No it is only at startup, before the DFI logo, the fans get really loud (and fast i guess) and then go to normal speeds. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vista Posted May 23, 2005 That is normal. When the board first powers up, it sends full voltage to the two controllable mobo fan headers and the chipset fan. Your GPU HSF may spin up too. This insures the fans get enough startup voltage to spin up. Right after that, the PC Health BIOS settings take over and the fans throttle back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
