Hi,
I'm gonna phase change my core i7 and I was wondering if the Gigabyte x58 Extreme has any overheating shutdown option, I've seen that it beeps if the processor reaches a certain temp, but I don't know if it shuts down.
Could someone please tell me if it does?
Thx!
No the mobo will not shut down the computer if i7 overheats. But the i7 will shut itself down at around 120C, or about 20C over tjmax, if throttling fails to maintain it at 100C from catastrophic cooling failure.Originally Posted by PeterW_R
I use realtemp and set my cpu temp at 90C and gpu at 80c, so in case of a pump failure/water cooling failure, realtemp will shutdown the computer. I have tested it many times, works great. You can get latest version in this post:

go to settings, alarm, set to bat file... RTshutdown.bat, then enter any temp for cpu you want. Also if you have nvidia gpu you can enter gpu shutdown temps as well. And just place realtemp in start up folder or use task manager to have it start if using vista or win 7.
What?!
No shutdown temps in a >300$ motherboard?!!
I should have picked an asus motherboard, they always come with this option...
My guess is that there is no speed fan control either?!
pick what please you!
Why would you do the research after buying it?

Oh no you have to download free software and run it in the background for protection, ahhh and it takes up 1,700K of memory!!!!?!?!
i see a little sarcasm here
good tip on the shut down in case the pump fails I just set mine.
