Msi nf980 g65; I need a mother board monitor plz help.

Hello, today i set up my new computer with an amd 965 x4!! YES!! But i have an issue, i want to be able to monitor the temps of my cpu and such and i just cant seem to find a utility that works. Please make some recommendations so i can get this solved.

Monitor programs affect your system in a variety of ways and to different degrees, and their readings are not all to be trusted. Try BIOS: Body temperature and you are fine.
Should the system collapse because of high temperature it is easy to see the monitor programs didn't help you...

MSI NF980-G65 - How to disable on-board video? (EVGA says to do this?) GTX260

I need your help.
Just upgraded my system to use MSI's NF980-G65 SLI board. I only have 1 EVGA GTX260 card right now and I purchased this board so I could add another GTX260 later this spring. The GTX260 worked on my last ASUS board just fine but the NF980-G65 doesn't see it.. at least I think it doesn't see it. I can boot off the mother board video fine, Windows 7 x64 boots up fine but doesn't see my gtx card in the device list it does report vid as (nforce 980 sli) or something like that. When I power off and plug my monitor into my GTX260, the video does not work (the system continues to boot and I can hear the windows7 start up music), I've tried both video terminals on the card but nothing. EVGA says if my mother board has on-board video that I'll need to disable it and the card will work (I did not have to do this on my last board though, but that board was not an SLI board either). BUT when I go into the bios there is no option to turn off the on-board video? Is this right? Does anyone know how to do this or am I missing something? I've done allot of research on line and there were a few post saying that even with only one card installed that I will only use the mother board video plug only... is this right? Is windows not suppose to report my video card as being a GTX260 but as a 980 SLI? Sorry I'm new to this SLI stuff.
MSI NF980-G65 w/6G DDR3 Patriot
EVGA GTX260 (installed in first PCI-E x16 slot 'labeled as PCI-E2'), yes both power plugs are plugged in.
AMD Athlon II X4
650W PSU
Windows 7 x64 Home Premium
The system seems to work fine with the on-board video. I used the MSI auto updater to make sure all drivers and the bios are up to date and nothing reported back as needing updating, all though when I searched MSI's site manually there is a newer bios available but haven't dared install it yet.
Is there anyone out there that runs this board with only 1 GTX card? Does your system see it? Help!
THX!

Thanks for your help guys. Still no go.
In the "Chipset Feature" there is no disable on board VGA listed. It list these items only.
HPET [Disabled]
Hybrid SLI Support [Disabled]
VGA Share Memory Auto [Auto]
VGA Share Memory [64M]
I've tried disabling the VGA Share memory, but on boot the mother board gives me a set of 5 or so beeps and then no video works. I have to reset the CMOS after that, so I can see the bios setup screen again.
The above settings is how the board came stock and it's how it returns after I do a reset. I'm starting to wonder if the PCI-E slots are not functioning or my GTX260 got fried moving from one mother board to another (I'm always strapped to ground when I work on electronics). I'll go through the motions tonight to put my asus board back in and test my GTX card. If it works after the swap and you guys have no other suggestions I'll send the board back to MSI for repair. If the board is bad then this will be my last MSI board, over the last 5 years I've gone through 3 MSI mother boards. MSI always has the features I want but I just don't have the luck with them. My last board (ASUS) doesn't support SLI or I'd still be using it... maybe it's time to go ATI and the crossfire route... I hope not, I'm a real big Nvidia fan.
Anyhow, if you guys have any other suggestions I'd very much appreciate it. Thanks again. - MX

I thought with modern power supplies though it can't fry stuff
If a PSU breaks down, it breaks down. When internal voltage regulators of a PSU malfunction for some reason, the supply voltages to the components can become horribly dirty and unstable. Sudden voltage spikes could have killed any component.

unless the ram or motherboard came to me already DOA, id have no way of knowing
Well, in order to know, you have to test your stuff. In case you do not have spare (and functioning!) components for testing purposes you are screwed. Bring your system to a computer shop for assistance (or: RMA everything).

What you are asking does not make any sense regarding Hybrid SLI. For Hybrid SLI you need a single GeForce 8400 or 8500 graphic card to boost 3D graphics performance with on board graphic card.
Are you actually wanting to do normal SLI with the two 9800GTX+ cards?
Edit: What's wrong with the instructions in your manual? If the paper manual you have is not adequate try the PDF one from >> here <<, maybe it shows more than the paper one you got with the MB. See SLI instructions starting at page 2-22.
any1 else want to take a shot at this who understands the difference between hybrid and geforce boost and is also aware that hybrid is not limited to 1 gpu + mGpu but can be used in dula and tri-sli configurations?

MSI NF980-G65 CPU heatsink selection

Hey guys, I'm ordering my new cpu tomorrow, Phenom II x4 965 BE, the new 125w revision. My motherboard is the MSI NF980-G65.
I need to figure out which of the top end heatsinks will fit without interfering with my ram.
G.Skill Trident.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231282&cm_re=gskill_trident-_-20-231-282-_-Product
Dual channel mode with 2 sticks utilizes the first two slots I think.
The ram measures 2 1/8" tall to the top of the heat spreader.
So far the cooler i'm most interested in is the Scythe Mugen 2 but the thing looks huge, from what I can tell folk with AMD boards have had success by mounting the fan so it's raised a bit, thus clearing the ram. I dont know if this would affect the cooling being that the fan's offset ?
I dont know how high the base of the fan sits by default, judging from the pictures it's not very high, so i'm guessing i'd have to offset it by at least 1".
I'd like to orient it to blow out through the back of the case as opposed to vertically into the psu.
The other option would be the Corsair H50, I have a modded side panel and I could mount the rad/fan to one of the 120mm holes. This option eliminates all the fitment issues, having said that i'm still not convinced the H50 is all it's cracked up to be, seems there are many mixed reviews.
I am open to other suggestions if you guys have any. With the right cooler, a couple of gin and tonic's and a lot of luck i'll be able to hit 4ghz, at least that's my goal
The case is a Cooler Master Praetorian with great air flow due to a couple of side, top and floor panel mods.
This is a brand new build and i'm hoping to have it all ready to go by the weekend so i'd like to get set on the right cooler by tomorrow, i'd hate to have to return it and delay the building !

I have the same board and am using a 945 95w version. I have the Thermalright 128-SE. It's a bit lower then others and just fits in my 4u rack case. I have a 120mm AC PWM fan on it which blows down. Right now i have min fan speed set down a notch or two and Hwmonitor is reporting fan at 75% and cpu cores at ~25c at idle. It keeps the cores at 40-45c under stress test. And yet even at full speed you can't hear the fan over drives and other sounds. A little bigger fan would easly hand a hotter cpu. Just be sure to order the am2/3 brackets.
Also the upper part of the heat sink is offset a bit to the side with the small pipes. hang that over the ram and it will help keep them cool, though my G.Skill 1600 ripjaws don't seem to need any help staying cool

MSI NF980-G65 freezes when trying to boot from disc

I just recently purchased and received an MSI NF980-G65 motherboard to work with my AMD Phenom II x6 1055T, but sadly I have had nothing but trouble.
So far the motherboard posts its bios and has the ability to detect any (and all) of my hard drives when I have them plugged in. The hard drive that has Windows installed on it currently informs me that I need to put in my Windows disc and run the repair utility, which makes sense since I was using a completely different motherboard and CPU before.
It is when I try to press any key to boot from disc that the problem arises. When I press a key on my keyboard while that prompt is on screen, the cursor jumps as if I had hit the tab key and does nothing further.
I have a total of three copies of Windows 7 at my disposal to use, two are DVDs I had burned from using my student discount to get them, and one set (32-bit and 64-bit) were in a retail copy of home premium, all of the discs performed the same action. I had tried using different SATA cables, different power adapters, and even different DVD players to try and remedy the situation.
The hard drive with windows is an IDE hard drive, but I have tried my other SATA hard drives just to be sure, none of which fixed the problem.
I have heard briefly about m-flash, but as far as I can tell, it would appear this new motherboard did come with the latest bios version (1.4).

For the boot, I have tried both setting up the DVD player as the initial boot, and I have tried just selecting it in the boot menu.
As per the posting guide, here are more specific information:
Processor: AMD Phenom II X6 2.8 GHz, 9.0 MB Total Cache, AM3 Socket
Motherboard: MSI NF980-G65 v. 1.2 bios (I'm going to try and flash this to a later now, I didn't know where to look for it before) , 601-7612-010B1004183389
RAM: G. Skill Ripjaw DDR3-1600 PC3-12800 2gb x 1 until I get this working, then it will be x4
Power Supply: Tagan BZ Series 700W
DVD: Samsung SH-S223 DVD burner with Lightscribe
HDD: Western Digital 250GB IDE drive

I don't know if there are beeps for faulty memory on this motherboard. Please try memory, too.
Did you maybe mistype, that you get to BIOS? If you did mistype, things are not as bad as you fear.
Memory??
I try to turn on the PC, nothing happens. Only when I disconnect from the motherboard connector PWR-1, the motherboard gets going, but unfortunately no image
It is possible to change the South Bridge voltage to a high value (red) were destroyed
RAM?

MSI NF980-G65 TMPIN1 using CPUID HWMonitor 88-92C ???

MSI NF980-G65 TMPIN1 using CPUID HWMonitor 88-92C ???
I did a MSI forum search and three threads came up but no answer.
I can touch the North bridge and 200 heatsink and they are not hot at all. The heatsink over the VRM's is warm but definitely not hot
What sensor is being monitored by CPUID HWMonitor for TMPIN1 ?
I ran System Info For Windows (Gabriel Topala) and under Fintech71889F (the sensor chip on the motherboard) it reads the same as the HWMonitor utilitiy

Nothing interesting about, they simply uses a chip on the motherboard that can measure e.g. 3 inputs but they only need 2.
As such they only connect 2, the 3th is only terminated by a shunt.
As such it shows a constant value, but your software can't see it's terminated, ergo it shows a value as it doesn't know it's not used.
The software simply identified the chip in use and knows it has 3 inputs, that's it.

MSI NF980-G65 Blue Screen during Windows XP Install - HELP !!!

I have a MSI NF980-G65 motherboard and it works great with Windows 7 but I can't install Windows XP Home edition 32 bit. Win XP checks hardware, then loads all initial files and when the blue screen with the license agreement should pop open I get a blue screen with an error message that says the computer was stopped to prevent damage to the hardware, that the HDD might not have enough room on it and/or the BIOS might need updating.
The HDD has Win 7 on it and it's a 250GB drive so there should be more than enough room on the HDD and the NF980 came with the latest BIOS v1.4
Anyone have any experience and a fix so I can install Win XP ? Thanks

Then the problem is elsewhere, as that was fixed with SP1.
Or his disk doesn't even contain that level.
However, when pre-partitioned to NTFS even without SP1 should install.
I doubt the problem is his CDrom.
What he needs to do is get http://www.bootdisk.com/ntfs.htm
Run NTFS4DOS and do a checkdisk.
Yes that will solve his problem, as Windows (from 2000 to W7) are to stupid to do a checkdisk when the disk is in a certain state.
And even a Windows bootdisk can't solve it and crashed with the error he has.
Only Linux or NTFS-DOS can do a check disk and restore the error M$-NTFS makes it failing too boot or reinstall.

MSI NF980-G65 DDR3 Voltage Question

Ok I see NF980-G65 manual it says 4 DDR3 DIMMs 240PIN/ 1.5v is this the minimum voltage that it supports? Whats the highest?

Can the MSI NF980-G65 handle 1.9v?

Just because it says it was tested on intel setups doesn't mean it won't work with amd systems! Which its working fine on my amd setup at auto voltage running 1600Mhz I just wanted to know what the maximum voltage this msi board was ok with?

MSI NF980-G65 not booting HELP!

Hi there,
First of all, here are my specs:
Phenom II 955
MSI NF980 - g65
4GB ddr3 Crucial Tracer
PNY GTX 285
Tuniq 1200W PSU
500GB WD HD
So lately my computer has been having some issues, Blue screening, Not booting past the MSI MB logo, taking ages to enter BIOS etc..
Now it wont boot at all, not even into Bios.
I dont know whats wrong and i dont have access to another MB or CPU.
Ive tried a different HD and also even taking the GPU out and running from the integrated VGA.
Ive run the system with each 2GB stick each with no difference and yes ive checked the Power connecters etc and a different PSU too.
Any ideas?
MB? CPU? i think its one of the two?
Any help would be much appreicated!

Lately means it started when? Did you do a BIOS flash or so?
What BSOD's where shown?
Have you tried different memory?
Have you checked standoffs?
a couple of days ago bassically, Was BSOD when playing games most of the time, cant remember the exact BSOD sorry.
Yup tried different memory and everything
after clearing Cmos again
its booting fine now, although only throught onboard VGA card
I tried my GTX on all three PCI slots and still nothing not too mention its heating up really hot really quick.
Tried a old GPU and it worked fine, also tried my GPU on another computer and it heated up again..
so its def the GPU
