I have a quad processor q6600 2.4ghz inside and 1hdd and a 2600xt ATI HD Radeon card on a P5k mobo. I was getting temperatures of 60 degrees celcius when idle and nearly 70 degrees when playing games, extracting files etc. Been like this since I bought this computer about 8 months ago.
I read some forums just now and noticed this was unusually high and should be lower considering its not overclocked.
So I went into my BIOS and noticed there was a option for q-control cpu fan speed which was enabled. I set it to disabled this and am now getting much lower temps about 40-50 when the computer is being used as shown in the pic below. Will disabling this in the BIOS affect anything in any way?
I got it custom built by someone, never opened it since getting it odd why he would have had this q-control option enabled as it only made my cpu fan spin at about 1000rpm even when on full load. Now its spinning at 2200rpm as you can see from the screenshot.
Btw i have no idea why the Aux says 124 degrees celcius it always says this and never changes lol.
