BTW, as there is no temp setting as such, do you know what temp the cpu has to reach before the bios shuts down the pc?

Does it take the max temp from the cpu itself?

When the bios does shut down the pc, does it just drop power to the mobo?

Geoff,

The stupid Asus company wants you to use their garbage software to monitor temperatures and shut down the machine

I suggest that you not install that Asus probe nonsense because its more irritating than an old girlfriend resurfacing a couple years after you're married lol The program self-initiates itself within windows and I would swear it re-spawns itself like a bad alien monster movie lol

The cpu thermal control thing relies on the temp-based cpu throttling feature which Intel built into your cpu, and its highly reliable. Otherwise,your cpu would be dead anyway After you've set the thermal control feature, you can rest easy, even if your pump were to inexplicably fail.
