Did all KT6-FISR have north bridge fan

I've just bought a KT6-FISR brand new. The first thing I've noticed is that the north bridge has a heat sink on it, but no fan. Neither is there a fan in the box.
Did all KT6-FISR have a north bridge fan as standard?
Is it fitted onto the heatsink on delivery, or does the user have to fit it?
I'm just wondering whether it has been taken from the box by 'someone' at the computer shop.

I depends on what MSI included in that particular bundle as it isn't the same for every board the SR/LSR I know probably wouldn't have it the FISR could have it though still doubtful only the top of the rung FIS2R would be the one that should have it no questions asked. Now the heatsink on fanless boards will do just fine the fan is tiny noisy at times, and isn't needed in fact I'm replacing my northbridge HSF with a Zalman fanless one.

North bridge fan leds don't work

Hello to everyone!!!! :biggthumbsup:I have one small query!Recently i installed creative soundblaster audigy 2 zs pci card onto my pc.Some days later i observed that the (6?) leds on the north bridge fan didn't work and so do now.
Is there an explanation for that?I also did a format before the installation of the sound card,however, i don't know which is the reason
Can anyone solve my query?Thank you very much!!!!

That technician is trying to pull you off by giving these irrelavent reasons.
Yes, the sound will be disabled if a PCI sound card is added in, but what has it got to do with the NB Fan . Your technician really beats me to this point... as I've never come across anybody giving such an excuse before
It's good that you RMA the mobo instead of going back to that technician again ... He got to start brushing up on things like this

KT4 Ultra MB: Replacing the AGP 8X North Bridge Fan

Opened a friend's PC this afternoon to add an ethernet card and 1Gb memory and unsurprisingly found it was dust-bound. Whilst attemtping to clean the north bridge fan (45mm AGP 8X) I noticed it wasn't turning very freely - in fact it wouldn't turn at all when I powered it back up. Trouble is I haven't a clue how to remove it to replace it! This tiny fan appears to have two diagonally opposed spring-loaded pins, the other diagonal having two miniscule screws which just keep turning, but not releasing anything.
I realise this is a very old board, but can anyone suggest how to remove this fan? Just a thought; I imagine this fan has not been working properly (at all?) for sometime - so is a replacement vital?
Thanks for reading this.

You know when you have a toothache but you get to the dentist there's no sign of pain - well this chipset fan has started to work again!
Thanks eagle for your response - I'll get a passive heatsink and replace fan anyway - but what a nuisance to have to take MB out to do so!

North bridge fan & SFAN1

How come when i plug my fan onto SFAN1 i can view its RPM in the bios under North Bridge Fan BUT CoreCenter still reads 0rpm. Also, is it possible to have Cool N' QUiet control SFAN1, PWFAN1, and PWFAN2??

and I don't see the rpm of the cpu-fan in the bios, but I do see it in Corecenter? I have bios 1.1

Replace the North Bridge fan Heatsink

Tought the MEGA PC isnt quiet enough, seems to be the North Brige fan who always goes on the same speed. One tougth is the following;
Is a Zalman North Bridge Heatsink good enough to replace the North Bridge fan on a MEGA PC? It seems to be enougt height if you skip the idea of a secondary IDE drive. Or are there some better 3rd party noise killer fans available for the North Bridge?
Your opinions pleese?

your using onboard vga thats in that chip so it really needs active cooling
I also have this noise complaint, and I use a separate AGP card (ATI AIW 9000). the Video card is already rather quite.
Does this mean I can easily remove the fan when I do not use on-board VGA. Does the chip really need a fan?

North bridge fan

Seems like the nb fan on my neo2 is always running at it's top speed (~5200 rpm). It should throttle down to a lower speed at times, shouldn't it?
Thanks.

Well I discovered through the process of elimination that the nb fan at 100% is really not that loud and thus wasn't the source of all this damn fan noise. It's my evga 6800gt that's relatively quite loud. Any suggestions?

MSi GF4 Ti4800 temp and NTH bridge fan

Hi there
As you can see in my sig, I have an MSI GF4 Ti4800 in a Neo875P PCB2 mobo. At the weekend I encountered a bit of a problem. After about 6 hours of use, with the CPU running at 100% most of the time (at 46 - 49 degrees) I started to get strange patterns scrolling vertically down the screen. I was unable to make out anything on the screen so I had to hit the reset button. When the machine had rebooted, I ran sppeedfan (v4.13) which reported the GF4 was reaching a temp of around 60 degrees ! When the temp got above 65 degrees I got the wierd patterns again.
This is the first time I've really had a long session since I installed this mobo. Everything else is quite cool - CPU, HD's and case.
Is the fact that the North fan is right above the H/S on the GF card causing the card to over heat ? I've removed the fan that came with the card (I've have the card about 14 months or so) and replaced it with a Thermaltake cooper H/S and fan. This HAS made a difference, the temp has not risen above 60 degrees - but this is still really hot.
Is there anything else I can do ? Does the North bridge fan blow or suck ?
Is there much improvement (performace wise) to be had in upgrading to a FX5900 128mb card (MSI or Gainward Gold Sample) ? The MSI FX5900 XT-VTD128 has a fan at the back and front of the card, so I'm wondering if this will foul on the north bridge fan ? Anyone using one of these ?
Thanks as always
Fred

Hi m8 i have a similar set up to yourself and found that my graphics card was bloody well hot!!!!
what i done was added a port blower to the left hand side of the graphics card (the fan side) and it fits like a glove without blocking the graphics card fan.
I was left with the problem of the rear heatsink hotting up!!!,,, the cure was to use a spare fan i had off a pentium 2 heatsink and i stuck it on with evostick and routed the 3 pin connector to the motherboard.
It is on solid and the card now runs cool,i did off set it so it blew directly onto the indentation of the heatsink where it contacts the gpu chip..... hope this helps m8...baz

2ND N-Bridge FAN FAILURE

Hi there,
I was wondering...
This is the 2nd time that the north-bridge fan on my K7N2 Delta ILSR has started failing in the last 9 months. The first one i had swopped out by my mobo supplier. The board is still under warranty and yet again the fan has started failing.
What gives ????
Does MSI have a fan that will not fail in 4 Months ? Or do i have to go and purchase a 3rd party fan ?
Thanks

Here is how to use them. When you get the fan and chipset,Take the fan apart to just the fan and grill.Remove MSI Northbridge fan by removing screws.DO NOT REMOVE HEATSINK. Save screws. Use the screws that you saved for the replacement fan.Place fan in exact same spot you removed old fan and center it. It will sit flush like the one you removed.Screw it right into the heatsink.Plugs right in where old fan was plugged. Good to go.
If you are afraid of failure, buy 2. LOL
While my fans are going bad, they haven't quit working. I saved them in case the Iceberq's quit.

North bridge noise

about the NEO2-S
this North bridges fan makes a hell of a noise, is he really nesseary if i don't overclock at all ? because in all later models MSI didn't put on a north birdge active cooling...
my machine is working intesively but no overclocking is being made.
i saw some threads about it here, but is there any official or something close to it from MSI saying this usless ( but sure is beautiful ) fan can be removed without any risk ?
thanks

remove the FAN only, don't remove the entire heatsink!
MSI won't give you any official answer. The heatsink without the fan is sufficient for normal cooling, provided your chassis is well air-ventilated.

Long motor test error did not reach target speed in time. fan runs all the time. sensor is connected. do I have a bad fan? speed in time speed

I have two apple accounts, but can only access one. I did all the steps to recover the older account's password but nothing worked. I need to access the older account to update apps. Also would there be a way to just combine both accounts?

Were you able to reset the account's password ? If not then how did you try to get it reset e.g. http://iforgot.apple.com (which would have sent it to the rescue email address if you have one on that account) ? You can also try contacting iTunes Support in your country to get it reset : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
And no, accounts can't be merged nor content transferred between accounts.

Why did all my apps update when I have automatic updates turned off?

Settings/iTunes & App Stores/Automatic Downloads
Music
Apps
Documents
I have them all turned OFF so that I can manually update my apps when I choose to.
Yesterday there were 11 updates left after I had finished updating the apps I use most often.
Today, it says ALL my apps are up to date?!
So, did Apple force a bulk update on me despite my having turned everything OFF? Or did all my updates just suddenly disappear overnight???
I will be VERY angry if I find out that my apps can be forcibly updated without my say so!
If so, how can I prevent this from happening again? If not, same question?

It seems to be a common problem.

I have a new IMAC with a Maverick platform (I can update to Yosemite). I did all graphics on a G5 Power PC (very old), in Freehand (very old)... How can I open old Freehand files on this new Mac? Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
After this, do an update from the App Store.
Thats all there is to it.
For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

TS1559 I did all 5 steps and they didn't work. I went into apple and they said it was probably unfixable and i would just have to pay to have it replaced. ridiculous, i'm paying for your broken product after ONE YEAR of use??

I did all 5 steps and they didn't work so I went into apple and they basically told me they could send it away but it was probably unfixable and i'd have to pay for to replace it (180 dollars). I've only had th iphone 4s for two weeks over a year, am I seriously expected to pay for their broken product after one year of use??

Yes, that was the terms of the warranty that you accepted when you purchased the phone. You had the option to purchase an extended warranty that would have covered it for 2 years, but you chose not to.
