You probably want to put at least two case fans in the system. The ram is probably the problem... I have samsung dd400's and since putting copper heatspreaders on them the systems been very cool. I have 4 Fans in my machine. 1 in front of the harddrives 1 at the front bottom (inhaller) And two at the rear above atx pannel (Exhaust) My abient system temp runs around 14 -24 degree's celcius. Any hotter and your going to be in trouble. On Wed, 2004-05-26 at 16:23, einar wrote:
Hello,
I am aware of the speed control setting in the BIOS. However, when running WinXP (yes, I dual boot) and playing a game, the machine constantly crashed! With full fan speed, everything runs stable. I still have to find out if the crashes came from overheating the CPU (which I doubt) or from the missing air current that was also cooling the memory. I never checked if the box would also crash running linux when under heavy load.

I agree...
You do know that you can turn on automatic fan speed control in the bios.. This takes the fan down to a less ear piercing 2400RPMS... Me I don't mind going deaf so I leave it on full speed =-)

Hello,
I use this motherboard with one Opteron 244 (I plan to insert a second one in the next months) and with SuSE 9.0. With the help of the Patch CD, I installed on SATA drives without the help of any PATA. It works but the cooler that comes with the MoBo is extremly loud.

Hi,
I've parsed the archives titles but have not found anybody speaking about MSI K8T Master 2 dual-opteron motherboard.
Basically, I want to know if someone has tested this board with SuSE 9.1 or SuSE Server for AMD 64.
Thanks for the information.
Olivier.
