A300 Motherboard

Eight voltage inputs on the A-300 Super I/O Enhanced Hardware Monitor monitor the

following voltages:

Vcore

+3.30Vin

+5.00Vin

+12Vin

The A-300 Super I/O Enhanced Hardware Monitor also monitors the CPU fan speeds.

2.9.2 Operating Temperature and Temperature Control

The maximum and minimum operating temperatures for the A300 are listed below.

Minimum Operating Temperature: 0ºC (32°F)

Maximum Operating Temperature: 60°C (140°F)

A cooling fan and heat sink must be installed on the CPU. Thermal paste must be

smeared on the lower side of the heat sink before it is mounted on the CPU. Heat sinks

are also mounted on the northbridge and southbridge chipsets to ensure the operating

temperature of these chips remain low.
