I use Asus thermal radar 2/Ai suite 3 to control my fans based on temperature. It works very well for my case fans and GPU rad fans, but the CPUs temp readout seems to not work properly. While running cinebench, my cpu gets up to 79 C according to HW Monitor, but the thermal radar shows only 31 C. Have any of you experienced this issue, or am I doing something wrong?

Hey there! I ran into a problem while installing the AI3 suite (Asus' fan xpert + other stuff utility). I looked up online for a solution, found out about the "ai3 cleaner.exe," however it seems like the link to download the file is ... dead. Anyone here have any idea how to uninstall (besides control panel), and reinstall ai3 suite? Mainly it'll help to get that cleaner.exe from Asus. Or if any of you magically have it ^.^/ Anyhow, thanks!

I have recently built a new computer with a hyper 212 evo cpu cooler. Whenever I turn on extreme quiet via Asus ai suite 3 my cpu fan will spin down as instructed, but after about 20 seconds it will shoot up to 1200rpm and won't come down unless I readjust the curve. The problem repeats itself once I have altered the curve. Any idea what might be going on here? This is my first post on this forum so if I've done something wrong please be kind...... specs: OS: Windows 10 Home CPU: i5 6600K Motherboard: Asus Z170 PRO RAM: 16gb Corsair LPX GPU: XFX R9 390X PSU: Corsair RMI 1000

AI Suite is horrible do not download it. It can't be uninstalled automatically. The cleaner program didn't work for me. I spent an entire day of my life trying to figure out what was wrong with my PC freezing, crashing, mouse smearing over windows, games artifacting like crazy. Thought one of my video cards was going bad or my CPU or RAM. Spent a almost a whole day of my life swapping video cards to see if one of my video cards was bad or a bad PCI E slot. Turns out a system restore to before I installed this garbage software fixed it. How could ASUS release a piece of crap like that? That alone makes me want to look somewhere else on my next MOBO purchase.

Asus AI Suite 3 won't (un)install. I followed an instruction on the ROG Forum and manually uninstalled it. Now every time I try to re-install it, I get an error telling me, that I have to reboot my PC and then finish the installation. I rebooted about 5 times now and I still get the same error. Can anyone help me? (Added a screenshot of the error. Only in german though, since my PC language is german)

OK so about a month ago I built my first pc, it has an Intel i7 6850k, an ASUS x99 deluxe II motherboard, an ASUS gtx 1080 Turbo, 32GB of corsair vengeance DDR4 3200MHz, a corsair RM850x power supply, and is being cooled by a corsair H100i v2. the system run fine 24/7 except I put a 22% overclock on it using Asus AI Suite and the system still runs fine 99% of the time, but when I run heavily demanding games or programs for a while the computer will shut off like someone flipped the power supply switch and then i will have to flip the switch myself off and back on to start the system again, I tried dropping to a 16% and had the same problem. I have the latest bios and version of all drivers and when I start the pc for the first time after a shutoff like that it says overclock failed and I have to restart again. I have removed the overclock all together now but i would still be able to overclock it again.

Today I switched my CPU from a 6600K to a 7700K on a Asus Z170 Pro G MB. On my 6600K I had an overclock to 4.4.ghz done by AI Suite. Now that I installed my 7700K the option to overclock disappeared from AI Suite, so I uninstalled AI Suite (from registery too, using a guide) but the clocks are still at 4.4ghz. I tried overclocking from the bios (like I should) but AI Suite seems to still override it even though its completely deleted. No matter what I do it still stays at 4.4ghz. Reformatting is my last solution. Any idea what should I do?

So i wanna install the asus ai suite for my motherboar wich is a Asus m5a78l-m lx3 wich has fan xpert compatability wich i want because my chassis fan is allways at 2000rpm, and this is the issue ive tried to install ai suite 1,2,3 and even 4 and none of them install with and without compatability admin rights or else, and all of them say that my motherboard isnt compatible, i dont know what to do if someone knows please help. I cant stand that fan anymore

Hey guys, I would be really grateful for your tips regarding the management of fans and water cooling in my computer. Currently, I am using AI Suite. I am not very pleased with it, though, as it shows really weird CPU temperature spikes. My CPU and graphics card are water cooled. What are your suggestions? BIOS alone? Speedfan? Cheers!

So I have my water cooling setup for awhile now and cant figure out how to contol the PWM speed on the pump. I have an EK Xtop D5 PWM, and it has a PWM connector for speed control and molex for power. I cant find the option for control on the AI Suite and not sure what else to do. Anybody have the same problem?

This is beyond frustrating since I just took my computer in to Canada Computers to have this problem fixed, only for me to come home with the same problem. I'm currently using AI Suite, and the guy said that the problem was with some patch that caused issues and that everything seemed to have been resolved. In AI Suite it says that I'm running at 4.5Ghz, but it just simply isn't the case in task manager. It seemed that my computer is perpetually in 'power saving mode', and even when uninstalling AI Suite, it remains. Please give me every possible fix you can think of. :~{

I looked this up before and tried a few things listed but have no been able to get anything to work with the Ai suite installer. I can install individual things that are usually part of this like Ramcache or Ramdisk for example but otherwise I can click the installer as many times as I want in any many compatability modes or run as Admin and it just sits there....not even appearing in task manager and does nothing. Anyone else getting this issue?

Any experience any pros or cons with installing the Asus AI Suite 3? Thus far I've installed chipset drivers and bios updates manually...but I'm new to Asus and wonder if I should install this. thx!

Hello. So, I use both Corsair Link and ASUS AI Suite 3. Both of these programs tell me differenc CPU temperature. While running a not so CPU intensive game as World of Warcraft, AI SUITE tells me it is between 32-42C. Depending on what area I load in and so forth. Corsair Link tells me it runs at 47C-55C, depending on location in game aswell. Is there anyway to see which of these actually is the real deal?

I read somewhere that turning fans On and Off with a fan controller will wear them out faster than leaving them On all the time, just like you sohouldn't turn off your PC every day, I turn mine off every 2-3 nights. Will this still be the case when using AI Suite? Because technically I think the fans are always "On", they're just not spinning when we set them to stop. For example I have a fan set to start spinning when cpu hits 40º, so it starts and stops all the time.

I updated my AI Suite 3 version because of compatibility issues after that windows 10 update. And I notice that now it also added GPU to the "5 way optimization" TPU. I never use AI Suite for overclocking, I only use it for Fan Xpert and EPU. Did you try it already? Does it override, cause conflict with GPU Tweak II or do they complement each other?

The following is a collation of issues I've found from other forum posts, articles and personal experience that are resulting from installing the latest Windows 10 update. The update is the January 2018 (KB4056892) fix for Spectre/Meltdown. Feel free to add any posts with additional issues you've had and been able to link to the Windows Update. Collation of issues found with Windows 10 Update – January 2018 (KB4056892) · Update reported as failed to install, possible error code 0x80070643. If this occurs check for updates and it should correct the issue. · Update causes blue screens after restarting, can’t boot back into windows. Error codes include Watchdog_Timeout_Error, Inaccessible_Boot_Device, If this occurs, hopefully the Automatic Repair tool will start and fix the startup issue. Sometimes this will successfully uninstall Update KB4056892, allowing you to boot back into Windows. Once back into Windows, immediately Disable the “Windows Update” service (Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services). If you can’t get back into Windows because the automatic repair fails, you will need Windows Recovery/Install media to boot from. Then you can try returning to a previous Restore Point (if it lets you), or from a Windows Backup (if you made one). Otherwise you may have no choice but to reinstall Windows. There is some factor in your PC that is causing the update to fail/kill Windows installations. I’ve yet to find out what, but in the mean time disabling the update is the only solution until Microsoft issues a fix. · Asus AI Suite not loading. There currently aren’t any updates of the AI Suite and Q-Fan software which is known to work with the KB4056892 update. So, if you need to run AI Suite, or Q-Fan then unfortunately you must uninstall KB4056892. There is the following report, however, that might work for AI Suite So, to fix ASUS AI Suite 3 issues on Windows 10, first download the latest AI Suite 3, right click the zip file and select “Properties”. Select the “Unblock” check box and hit OK. Unzip the zip file and run AsusSetup.exe as Administrator. Keep in mind that your need to unblock the ZIP first before you extract the files.

The first advice right now for these issues is to make sure to download and do a fresh install of the latest versions of these programs. It has known to help Firefox and Chrome to do this. There is also the option to uninstall the update, and this should make the other programs work again. Sadly, most of the fixes around this update is to uninstall it and prevent it from reinstalling. So much for patching the potentially biggest security flaw in the last 10 years.

Hi folks! Anyone know why my AI suite fan profile turns off when my system is idle (once my monitors enter power save mode)? I have a specific fan profile for when I'm encoding video in Premiere, but the fans throttle down once the monitors power down. The fans ramp back up to the correct speeds once I wake the system up. My load temps are running over 10 degrees hotter than they need to be, and it's actually louder because the case fans are running slower which is causing the CPU fan to need to run way faster. Super annoying if I'm trying to get anything else done on another computer while it's encoding. It's a desktop system, and the windows power plan settings are on high performance, and never sleep. I don't understand why the system thinks it needs to do anything different when the monitors go to sleep. I've tried it on different saved fan profiles, so it isn't specific to this one I'm using. Windows 10, AI suite, no hardware-based fan controller. Fans are non-PWM.

I recently download ai suite III and al the applications that come with it is always on startup even If i disabled ai suite startup from windows task manager. I always see things like EZ update on my startup. Is there a way to disable all of these

So my ai suite just straight up doesn't install. And when i try to install aura it says Cant open AsIO.sys !! (2) I have tried reinstalling windows. I have also tried flashing bios.

Hi, so when I boot up into Windows I notice that the fan is a bit loud and strangely enough, the fan is set to a maximum of 750 RPM yet, that it's running at 800 RPM. I have found a solution to fixing this, however, it's not very good and it's not really much of a solution. All I do is drag it to 800 and then back down to 750 and the problem persists every time that this is done when I boot into Windows. So I figure I should check to see if I'm doing something wrong or if this is a glitch/bug on Asus's end.

Hello! First of all, I apologize for lumping all my questions into one thread, I just didn't want to clog up the forums. My biggest issue is that the temperatures on my cpu seem to be slightly higher than normal. I've been overclocking lately, and I've reached 4.2 ghz stable at 1.113 volts, but I can get higher frequencies stable quite easily. The only reason I can't is because of my temperatures. I'm running a h100i with Noctua NF-F12s in a push-pull setup, with the fans currently maxed out at around 1500 rpms. My idles are in the low 40s, and as soon as I run small ftps in Prime95 or stress fpu in Aida64, my temperatures skyrocket to the low 90s. I feel like this is higher than normal, even though I know the stock fans can run 2000+ rpms, but since I'm running push-pull with higher quality fans I feel like my temperatures should be lower. My second issue is with my custom fan curves. I'm currently running 8 fans in my case, 4 for the push-pull radiator, 1 more intake, and 3 exhaust. I have 4 fans plugged into the motherboard header, and the 4 radiator fans plugged into the corsair H100i. My fans that are running off the motherboard header I have set curves with in AI suite, and they seem to work just fine. However, the fans I have plugged into the H100i seem to ignore the fan curves I set in Corsair Link. They just run at around 1000rpm, and the only way I can change that is by setting a fixed rpm%. I read online somewhere that there's an issue with the sensors getting directions from two separate programs at once, or something. Is this true? If so, is there a way I can control all of the fans from one of the software (preferably AI suite)? Is there anything else I can use to control them all? Or should I unplug them from the h100i and use fan splitters to plug them all into the motherboard? Finally, I currently only have two 120mm fans in the top exhaust bay of the case, but I would like to populate this with a third fan (or replace these two with 140mm fans) to improve airflow. I would like to have positive pressure in the case, however. I have 3 bays in the front as intake, although 2 of the bays are my radiator (even though there are 4 fans there), my two 120mm fans and a 140mm fan in the back as exhaust. Is there a good way of doing this anyone can think of? How does a push-pull radiator set up affect the pressure ratio? Thanks for all the help guys! I'm sorry for the wall of text, and for cramming multiple questions into one thread. I appreciate all the help!

Hey guys, something I've been trying to deal with omw and using manual solutions for is the fan control on my MSI/Corsair GPU. The fan on the board itself is controlled by MSI afterburner, and has a nice little fan curve, this however only really cools the VRAM. The fan header for the SP120 fan that's on the radiator is PWM and plugged into my motherboard. So far I've just used standard settings, either low medium or high speeds changed using ASUS AI suite 3 (Asus Z97M-PLUS Micro ATX) I've tried Corsair link 3 and even 4... but neither of these gave me the option to add the GPU temp to the Fan as the sensor. So that I could have my fans ramp up based on GPU temp. The only sensor they allowed me to use were the CPU and motherboard. Does anyone know of any software or workaround for linking my AiO fan to the GPU temp?

Hello guys, First of all I'm really sorry if my question will be either stupid or posted in the wrong section. And again - I'm sorry for taking your time and thank you for helping me. Right now I'm both stuck and desperate to find a solution, so any help will be really appreciated. So, I guess the entire case can be split into 2-3 things. Let's start. 1) Software issues. I've recently bought a completely new PC ( only took 2 kinda old hard drives from my old pc, since it was like 7 years old, so I couldn't use anything from it ). Specs are in the signature, but I'll copy them here, just to make sure everything is clear : MB : ASUS Maximus VIII Extreme BIOS Date: 10/01/15 17:49:28 Ver: 05.0000B CPU : i7 6700K @ 4.7 GPU : ASUS GTX Titan X RAM :Kingston DDR4-3000 16384MB PC4-24000 (Kit of 2x8192) HyperX Savage Black OS : Win 10 x64 EL CPU cooler : Thermaltake Water 3.0 ultimate Chassis : Thermaltake V71 PSU : Aerocool 1150 And just to justify my decision somehow : I do know that titan x was a bad decision, but my old pc just died, and I had to buy a new one, and buy it quick, since I need a working stationary PC for my job. That wasn't the best decision, should've went with 980TI, but what's done is done. So, to the problems. With software - there are 2 main problems here. 1.1) Wi-fi engine from asus. I wanted to use my PC as a Wi-Fi hotspot, and for this reason I needed their software which was supposed to intall with AI Suite. Unfortunatelly this doesn't help - Wi-Fi itself works, I can connect to the network, so both the drivers and the wifi module are fine, but I simply can't install the engine to start a hotspot. I know, that this is something that I should asus for, so I did, they sent the question to dev team, but it was a month ago.. so, maybe someone had same situation ? For the record - I did try reinstalling it a few times. No help. 1.2) AI Suite in general. While wi-fi engine didn't work at all, the AI Suite did. It worked strange - sometimes the window didn't even open, sometimes it's UI just freezed, but most of the time it _extremely_, and I mean it, _extremely_ slow. It could take a minute to open a sidemenu! But.. it's software from a hardware company, and I .. can take it.. ok. But Yesterday it just stopped working. Won't launch, won't start manually , it even cost me a lot of time to even actually delete it. Reinstalling won't help, the situation is the same ( not to mention the fact that the install itself launches 1 time of 10 to 20 attempts ). It's a brant new PC with a pretty fresh OS installed, how is this even possible? Does someone have an idea of what could be wrong ? I.. did a full delete with ASUS utility that cleanes registry, fresh install and.. it still won't launch and won't even say if anything is wrong. UPD : It just somehow launched. I was just doing my stuff, when I noticed it in tray. So, it took AI Suite like.. 3 hrs? And now it's working but at some insane-slow-mode... 2) Hardware. Ok, here is something.. guys, I do understand that info that I'm giving is not much of a help, but ... that's what I have. The new PC works just fine. Everything compiles within seconds, video rendering is super fast ( compared to my old pc ), I'm really enjoying it. But what's strange is that from time to time it just... reboots. No error message, no error code, no BSOD nothing at all. AIDAs stress tests show that everything is fine, nights of coding go just fine, but from time to time it can just reboot without any visible reason. No hard load, just chrome and a movie and... reboot ( as if the reboot button on the chassie was pressed ). Where should I look for it and is it dangerous? I'm sorry for disturbing you guys. And thank you for your time and any help that you will give me. Really thank you. Have a nice day!

Hey, So im building my PC next week (https://pcpartpicker.com/user/SaulHeno/saved/HnhXsY) and since i have an unlocked chip and a decent air cooler,i thought i may aswell do some overclocking. I found Ai Suite which was given a good review by Techsyndicate (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTZC34v03Ak) but linus said its a bit risky... So,has anyone ever overclocked a 4690K with Ai Suite?What did you think of it and do you have any tips? Thanks in advance.
