10. Notes on Usage

1) Checking CPU Compatibility

Please refer to “Compatible CPUs” on page 3 to confirm that your CPU is compatible before using the

CNPS8000.

2) Cautions During Booting

The computer system may automatically shut down when booting the computer after the system

monitoring program outputs a warning stating that the CPU fan is rotating slowly. In such a case, fully

turn the speed control knob in the clockwise direction before booting to disable the ‘CPU Fan Detected’

option in BIOS setting, or set the CPU fan’s rotational speed to less than or equal to 1300rpm in the

system monitoring program.

Note) Some motherboards fail to boot if the rotational speed of the CPU fan is below a certain rpm.

However, booting can be possible even at low fan rpm if the BIOS settings are updated.

For more information on updating your BIOS, please refer to the website of your motherboard

manufacturer.

There are motherboards which fail to detect the rpm while operating the cooler on Silent Mode, but

this does not affect computing performance.

3) OVERCLOCKING

Zalman Tech Co., Ltd. is not responsible for any damages in CPU resulting from OVERCLOCKING.

9. FAN MATE 2 Installation and Usage

cable to the motherboard fan header and the

CNPS8000’s fan connector.

Pull the 6-pin connector out of the system

through the back and connect it to FAN MATE 2,

which should be installed on the case using the

included double-sided tape (⑤).

Silent Mode. Turned fully clockwise, it operates in Normal Mode. You can select the desired fan speed

by turning the knob.
