Sabertooth Z87 Thermal Radar 2 problem(s)

Hi all!

I'm using Win 8.1 x64 and have (a) strange problem(s) with Thermal Radar 2:
At first, a fan which was set to not run till 40 degrees always ran.
After toggling Auto-Stop off and on again and hitting OK it worked.
But now the fan doesn't spin at all! :cool:
When the temp goes over the minimum, it shows up like this, but doesn't run. Some other fans seems to behave similar, but the Assistant fans always work. :confused:

I hope you can help me! 🙂

Update:
When I get even more heat, the fan starts to spin (what it should have done alot earlier), but it looks like it is slower, than it should be:

Also today my fan is randomly starting up and stopping again, when the temperature is low. It looks like this:

Why is that? :confused:

It's possible that you have unique issue like this because you feed fans with too much informations from sensors. Limit, for example, rear Assistant Fan to SATA6G sensor - set slider to 100% and others to 0% or set Vcore 30% and SATA6G to 70% (sum always must be 100% ) or if you wish put None as option for sensor.

Same for mid assistant fan - limit that fan to PCH sensor, CPU Fan is to CPU sensor as measuring point (at 100%)

Front intake fans (if you connected them to MB) link to custom sensor probes from motherboard.


For example I didn't link thermal probes/diodes to anything in AI Suite 3 because I have CM Silencio with low/high switch on front panel.
My rear Assist fan is linked to VCORE at 30% and SATA6G with 70%. Midle Assistant fan is linked only to PCH sensor like in this pictures:

Sorry for late reply. I didnt get a notification...

Why do you think that would change something? But anyway ill try it out and report. 🙂

EDIT: You got an idea why these points showing the temp/fan speed sometimes show up "flying" as you can see on my screenshots?

Flying dot usualy means temeprature rise od down. It's not a bug but is slow and because of that is confuzing. Simply ignore this and look down for temepratures

Sometimes it's confusing, because I never saw the temp high but it was nevertheless "flying"... :rolleyes:

Again, it won't help 😞
The fan is spinning without the gpu sensor having high temps at all... (The gpu is at 0 load so there is no chance for the sensor to measure high temps)

Hi,
Thermal Radar 2 worked fine for me (Gryphon Z87) for a long time then suddenly it behaved similar to your description. The dot goes up but the rpm of the fans do not change.

I think “Display Driver Uninstaller” (DDU) removed some driver or something but I am not sure.

I fixed it like this:
Uninstalled “AISuite3_1.00.67 for Gryphon Z87”
CCleaner (register cleaning)
Installed “AISuitiii for Maximus VIII GENE” (newer but simpler version)
Tested ok
Uninstalled “AISuitiii for Maximus VIII GENE”
Installed AISuite3_1.00.67 for Gryphon Z87
Tested ok

I think a reinstall of AISuite3 is enough though. 😛

Hi,

thanks for the info,
at the moment I don't even know, if mine is working properly, because as long, as my computer isn't annoying me with noise, I don't even start Ai Suite :rolleyes:
I will report though, if this issue returns. This is probably the like fifth clean install, after I started this thread 😉
