Just upgraded my pc and did a bunch of firsts so i'm a bit out of the loop about certain options/settings/features.
Upgarded from amd to intel (and it's been a while since my last intel cpu & mb), first UEFI mb and first Asrock mobo. From AMD Phenom II X3 to i5-2500k, Asus 785G mobo to Asrock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3.
Just skimmed through the UEFI settings, not going to mess with anything yet, as there are a lot of settings i'm not familiar with, but one things is really bothering me. With my previous Asus 785G mobo my cpu fan speed would go up/down based on cpu temps but with this new rig the fan is always at a fixed speed. I can adjust the speed manually but it won't change according to cpu temps. I know amd chipsets well but i'm cluless when it comes to sandy bridge.
So is it a missing option on the asrock board, or the chipset (because i'm not familiar with z68 chipset) or a settting i don't know about being enabled/disabled?
