 Do I have a bad Taichi X399 board? I'm bothered by the temps and voltages from this HWMONITOR 1.36 pic (idling) with 3.30 BIOS. The board appears to run fine (except no 3200 support using 8 DIMMS). Only OC is 3650mhz at stock voltage. Most of the voltages look nuts (Tried two different power supplies). The CPU is running the new all nickel EK str4 waterblock on a 480mm rad. Ambient IS 78F, so either something is wrong on the HWMONITOR screen or I got a perfect cooling setup :). I mention that since none of the motherboard temps should be < 78F AFAIK Also, does anyone know the location of all the sensors like TMPIN3 on the taichi? |

i dont see anything wrong with your Voltages, but your TEMP sensors are all over the place |

" rel="nofollow - How can I have voltages on DRAM A/B and not on C/D? 3VCC looks nuts too. |

try hwinfo64. i dont trust hwmonitor, not very well supported program. also threadripper reports 27C higher than actual for core temp. subtract 27C to get real temp, or read tdie on hwinfo64 ------------- MB: X399 Taichi, UEFI L3.32 VGA: EVGA 1080 Ti FTW3 PSU: Seasonic PRIME 1300 W PLATINUM CPU: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X MEM: 4x16GB, 3600MHz G.Skill Trident Z F4-3600C17Q-64GTZKW |

Well, found one problem.. A1 DIMM was not completely in the slot.. machine still ran somehow. Now to see how fast I can go on stock voltage with the CPU. |
