[Willid1]

New PC build - should both these CPU fans be running all the time or just the second one (OPT fan) when load requires??

Is this a pcspecialist system? Can you copy your full specs from the order page?

Yes this is a PC specialist system. I'm having trouble getting logged into my PC Specialist account and don't have a copy of the build spec, but the Order Number is 2774065 if that's a help​

So your cpu_opt is not populated so won’t show any reading.

The cooler is on cpu_fan

Thank you - the reason I asked is the AK620 ZERO DARK cooler actually has 2 fans in it, I assume they both spin at the registered cpu_fan speed? and are fed by a single cable?
