a small question, i can't seem to see my fan's rpms in either bios or via hwm. i doubt i did anything wrong but being that it's me i might have. any input will help and thanks in advance. on a different note, anyone know why my comp likes to restart on it's own?

"it's just too hot in southern california. gonna have to block out the sun"

are u sure youve connected the fans to the mobo if you havent then you wont be able to see the RPMs they have to be on the motherboard header

interesting thing here, none of the fan headers will read the rpms but if use the 4pin adapter the psu will read it. another interesting tidbit, i overclocked my fsb and i saw a spark. as a result, i've gotten lower temperatures (checked my temps with a probe so it can't be wrong) but it destroyed the AI to one of my games. the temps are 45 C on full load for the cpu and 29 C for the sys. i think my computer belongs with ripley's. also, thanks to those who posted replys, i really appreciate it.
