Just bought a 970 Gaming Motherboard, what is tmpin 1?

Tmpin1 is getting very high (between 70-90 c) and i have tried to google it but can't find any concrete about it, some says
it is a 'fake' sensor temp and othersays it's the nb. if it is the nb, then what's the max temp?

Thank god that you came here, finally some good answer! Yeah, it would be really really good to know what the Vrm's temps is, dont want them to just say poof and kill the whole motherboard.
Do you also get 'bad' performance in games? I get alot of fps drops in Battlefield 4 (Drops down to 30-40 during explosions) which never happend with the other motherboard i had before on the same Cpu speed. Im getting 20% worser performance on this motherboard than i got on the Gigabyte one i had and that is strange as hell becuse this MB is better and faster and have better VRM phase compare to the old one.
I don't play BF4 unfortunately so I can't say anything there. I also do not anything else to compare with by means of this CPU (unless you count my Athlon II x4 640 @3,0 Ghz as a competitor..) but speeds seem to have been good! On the PassMark performanceTest I get slightly over 10.000 cpu points which is pretty nice considering the price a 8320 costs. (OC'ed it to 4,4 Ghz, 1.432v stable. Only stopped here because I got worried about the TMPIN1 temperature..)
As for the VRM's; I have read reviews who tried this motherboard with 9 series FX processors which this motherboard officially does not support and this motherboard handled it without a hitch (even on a long-term review). So I don't think we should be particularly worried about VRM's unless we'd like to keep our 8320's at 5,0 Ghz which I'd doubt!

    Anyone know the TDP of this board?
    In a comparison it looks practically identical to the 125W G46-970a.  Except the G46 has a sound optical out--the features list says the Gamer board doesn't--and the board pics confirm that.  Board looks to have better software than the G46--possibly better sound output, maybe.

  • PC turns on but no signal on monitor? 970 Gaming Motherboard

    So i just upgraded my pc
    Corsair Force LX Series 128GB SSD (new)
    XFX R9 280x
    Seagate 1TB HDD (new)
    MSI 970 Gaming MOBO (new)
    16GB Ram
    Windows 8.1 OS (new)
    Rosewill ARC M550 550W PSU (new)
    So basically when i turn on my pc, all fans are on and the mobo lights up. But the monitor just stays black! So what i do is just hold the power button to turn it off and try to turn it on again. Now this is the weird part... sometimes it turns on and sometimes it doesnt. Sometimes i need to turn off/on for 3 or 4 times for it to turn on. Sometimes i need to do it just once. Its so inconsistence and strange.
    Example:
    One day i was just playing a game and suddenly my monitor turns off. The thing is the fans and all is still working. I thought it was the GPU but the fans on the gpu is still on!
    My hunch is on the SSD, which holds the OS. But im not sure, could it be the motherboard? My GPU maybe?

    So before all this happen, i have a similar setup with different brand of motherboard and PSU. All i bought is a new brand of psu and mobo and i add an SSD. the thing is, i use to have an antec 550w before and my pc just ran fine, no crashes what so over and no problem on boot. But i dont have an ssd back then.
    my ram is set to clock speed 1333
    i dont think my pc crash, if it did shouldnt my whole pc turns off including all the fans and all? When i was playing the game, my monitor turns black saying no signal but my pc fans, including GPU's fan is running. I have this problem too on boot. When i try to turn on my pc, the pc it self is running (including GPU's fan) but monitor doesnt recieve signals. I have to turn on/off 3-4 times for it to turn on properly. Sometimes it turns on the first time, and sometimes not, its so insistence and strange
    If it is my psu, what wattage should it be? Any suggestion that wouldn't break the bank?
    I dont think my PC overheats. I have an aftermarket air cooler on my cpu and i have 4 120mm corsair fans running on my carbide air 540. and if it did crash, shouldnt my whole pc turns off? only the display is not getting signals, all my pc components's fan/light is on.

  • Problem with 970 Gaming Motherboard?

    I am fairly certain that this motherboard (970 Gaming) is quite "broken" There are quite a few complain on this forum and i believe they are experiencing the same problem as i am. When i boot up my pc, sometimes it wont display image, so i need to keep resetting. Also, sometimes PC just randomly shuts off, no matter if im under load or not. This MB is quite new so i guess its kind of expected. Do you think it could possibly the BIOS?
    CPU: fx8350 stock speed
    GPU: XFX r9 280x stock speed
    MOBO: MSI 970 Gaming
    HDD: 1TB Seagate
    SSD: Corsair 128GB LX
    PSU: EVGA 850w Bronze

    Is the RAM matched kit (i.e. 2x4gb) or single modules (i.e. 2x 1x4gb) ?
    Try with minimal setup: single RAM stick, no GPU, only keyboard and mouse connected, only HDD/SSD with OS on it and best if the motherboard is outside of the case.

  • 970 Gaming Motherboard Audio too quiet

    ive been missing with this all day. Both the windows 7 drivers and the realtek drivers are too quiet, tested with my speakers (just a one 3.5 plug, with stereo speakers + sub) and my headphones. Every volume setting is maxed out etc etc etc. Its far too quiet for loudness equalization/headphones settings to make it loud enough. i primarily have been using the back port as i always do but ive tested the front. Latest drivers downloaded from MSI website from the page for my mobo. Please tell me this isn't a RMA i have to do i might die....xD
    If i run the audio to my USB mic and plug my headphones into there, the audio is fine.
    Anyone have any advice to offer?
    One of the reasons i bought this was for its superior onboard sound....i haven't had any other problems with it. but if i cant use its audio then its gone.
    in case its somehow relevant, specs:
    MSI 970 gaming
    FX-6300 stock clock
    4GB (1x4GB) DDR3 1600 Gskill ares
    evga GTX 660 stock clock 2GB
    seasonic 750w PSU
    corsair c70
    white label 500GB 7200RPM hard drive

    Remove the front panel audio connector from the board and retest the rear plugs. Did you install all the needed audio drivers?
    Also ensure that you don't have any errant standoff causing a short, perhaps test the baord outside the case to ensure that you don't have a potential short somewhere.
    If that does not solve the problem, then perhaps you may have a defective analog audio circuit as your digital audio via the USB seems to work.
    Thanks for the standoff suggestion, that never occured to me. however, there arent any phantom standoffs anywhere after checking. I unplugged the front audio panel to no change, and i even tried unlugging the LED board that was in the back port next to the sound stuff in case it was somehow doing stuff to no avail.
    All the drivers that i could have tried, i did. I tried windows 7 drivers, i tried MSI realtek drivers, and i tried just realtek drivers. looks like ill have to RMA to newegg. i assume theres no way to just use this board until the new one comes then return it so i dont have to be without my PC for a week or 2? :/
    thanks for your help.

  • What is my 970 Gaming Motherboard's problem?

    latest only! BIOS updates accumulative and each is built off the previous version so the newest contains everything that came before too!

    Oh dont worry! The GS60 uses the long form.

    Quote from: mhafiznoor on Today at 03:08:35either FX-6300 or FX-4350, which one is better?
    FX-4xxx = 4 cores
    FX-6xxx = 6 cores
    FX-8xxx = 8 cores
    Of course the 6300 is better (more powerful) and does not c...

    Quote from: mhafiznoor on Today at 02:59:50What is the best and affordable processor?
    It is obvious that the best is not so affordable.
    Depend on your needs and budget, FX-6300 gets high price/performance...

  • Just bought new 24 inch iMac, what a monster!

    Just got back from Apple retail store in Brent Cross near London in the UK with my new 24 inch iMac.
    All I can say is BRILLIANT!!. What a stunning machine. I had a 20 inch that I bought just 3 weeks back, but I managed to get rid of it to buy this new one.
    Now that I have it on my desk at home I can really appreciate the extra 4 inches, it seems like a lot more than that.
    As the Apple retail store is a 1-hour drive for me I insisted on taking it out of the box and booting it up in the store to check it out before the drive home. It was just as well that I did as there was a single stuck (black) pixel in bottom right hand corner. This would not bother most people, but I do a lot of Photoshop work and I can only imagine that I would be constantly trying to airbrush a speck out of a picture, only to discover that it was a stuck/dead pixel.
    Anyway, the salesman said no problem and got me another one, which I also checked there and then, second one was perfect.
    Anyone who has a 20 inch, get rid of it and buy a 24 inch straight away. They are just awesome.
    Even the staff at the Apple retail store were standing around me in absolute awe as I was checking mine out and filling in my personal details, as they did not have a demo unit on display at this time.
    Other people were standing around too, a little crowd gathered; I felt like an Apple God for a moment there
    The edges are not dark like somebody else mentioned, mine is nice and bright edge-to-edge. In fact is is brighter than my old (3 week old) iMac 20 inch as I have to reduce the brightness on this new 24 inch monster a little bit more to get a nice brightness that I'm used too.
    I put in an extra 2 Gig of ram (2 x 1 GB sticks from my old 3-week old iMac 20 inch model), but bought the standard 24 inch model with standard graphics card. Didn't see the point in better graphics card as I don't do gaming, just inDesign and Photoshop on this machine.
    This screen is also 1920x1200 so it is TRUE HD for playback of future 1920x1080i or 1920x1080p Bluray or HD DVDs, nice. If you think about it, if you popped to a local store and bought a HD-Ready TV with this resolution it would cost you a lot more than the price of the 24 inch iMac so it's like getting a HD TV with a computer thrown in for free, only cheaper
    Had it turned on now for about 3 hours and have been spinning the hard drive a lot as I transfer a lot of old files from external Firewire HD and it is warm near the vents on back/top, nothing excessive though.
    The fan is ever so slightly louder than old 20 inch, but again, negligible.
    Well I'm off to play some more and test some DVDs etc.
    In the meantime they are fantastic machines and I highly recommend them to everyone.
    Buy one today, I don't care how, just get one!!!

    Hey guys, didn't mean to scare anyone with that dead-pixel thing. I've had about 7 Macs over the past 5 years (since moving over from the muddy waters of Windows) and I've NEVER had a single problem. To be honest I was amazed the first 24 inch iMac I pulled out of the box actually had a stuck pixel and so were the staff. One of them tried to 'massage' it away, to no avail. It was hardly noticeable; I'm just a fussy git.
    I doubt any of you guys will take delivery of one with a dead/stuck pixel, this is very rare as Apple only use grade-A LCD panels that have a high quality-control-production-line.
    Anyway, howwow, you really must get a 24 inch; here's why.
    I had 20 inch and spend a lot of time laying out an A4 magazine in Adobe InDesign. I thought my 20 inch Intel Imac was great until I got the 24. Now I can have a full two-page spread across the screen zoomed in 25% bigger than actual size and still have room for my pallets down the left and right hand side. With my old 20 inch iMac I had to collapse or hide certain pallets away or they were over the top of my page on the top/right hand side, which was a pain.
    Another advantage of 24 over 20 is that it is much easier copying files from external to internal hard drives and vice-versa, especially when in Column view as you can have 5 columns on each window; plenty. On my 20 inch I could not get anywhere near this and had to move windows around the desktop to get them into the best space; not anymore.
    Two of my friends came (almost literally) to see me last night and when they stepped into my study room and clocked the massive 24 inch iMac they both almost creamed their jeans right then and there. They were speechless; they are both windows PC users, or should I say were. The 24 inches was more than enough to convince them; well, they were both ladies They are heading for Apple retail store as I type this to buy one each. Now we all know how bloody hard it is trying to convert Windows users to Mac, the 24 inch iMac has no problem doing that.
    I had a large high-def Quicktime movie playing, 6 smaller Quicktime movies playing, a DVD playing with Photobooth open and a bunch of other things, when I hit the exposé button to reveal them all at once it is just amazing on this large screen.
    I've also noticed that running Adobe Photoshop and InDesign on this latest 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Due with 2 GB of RAM is a lot faster than my older (3 week old) iMac 20 inch Intel Core Due machine, that extra '2' really pushes Rosetta programmes along the rails a lot faster; it's sort of turbo charged now. This is great for me as I view InDesign stuff in OverView mode (higher res, but slower).
    This new machine takes just 31 seconds to boot from a cold start by pressing the power button on the back. Fast or what. Ever watch a Windows user switch on their machine and go have a cuppa coffee whilst they wait
    The graphics (and I only have bog-standard card it came with) are brilliant. Pin sharp and I've set up a custom colour calibration for the screen because of Photoshop and InDesign and it is stunning.
    Only slight drawback is if you sit too close and are a fast typer, it's like watching tennis as your head looks from right to left as you type across the screen

  • I just bought a new Macbook. What's the best way to transfer all my info from the old one?

    Hey everyone! I just got my new retina display Macbook Pro, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to transfer all my music/photos/files/data/etc. from my old Mackbook Pro. I have a 1TB external drive and an 8GB flash drive that I can use if I need to. Any sugestions? Thanks!

    What i did with mine, I cloned the drive of my old macbook to my external drive using carbon copy cloner.
    Once i was done with the clone - i used migration assistant to transfer my apps/data/pictures/files over my new macbook....
    when using migration assistant - do not transfer your old settngs and if you're doing an app transfer, only transfer the ones you need and that you know will work with your Retina...
    good luck..

  • Just Bought an Imac...What do I do with the Install Disks?

    Hi There,
    I'm hoping someone may have some feedback on the following.
    I just opened my brand new imac, turned it on and was able to launch a program.
    But I see that there are two accompanying install disks. Do I need to still install something that is on the disks? Thanks for your advice and I hope you have a great week ahead.

    You are welcome, neighbor( or neighbour!). This is off topic, but I was heading for Vancouver (BC) a few days ago and left a little more money than I intended. I drifted through a stop sign at about 2 MPH just before the Border booths (two languages, I just did not see it) and got a breathalyzer test (passed) and a ticket from the RCMP for $121 Canadian for ignoring a traffic control device. (I still like our Northern neighbors!).
