The order is alphabetical, but it has 3 groups, and the alphabetical order is only valid inside each group. 1) First group is the internally connected drives (IDE/ATA/SATA drives) that are not enumerated by the AIDA64 RAID module. Usually those are the regular drives that everyone's got. 2) The second group is the internally connected drives that are either part of a RAID array, or not picked up by direct enumeration but only by the RAID module. It's important to note that those drives are not necesserily part of a RAID array, and may not even be connected to a RAID controller. I know, it's weird 3) The final group is the external drives (FireWire, USB, eSATA, Thunderbolt, etc). If you post a current ATA Dump and SMART Dump, I can tell you more about the why's of the ordering. Not really a good idea, since then the driver may override the otherwise more explanatory model ID with something useless. In your particular case (of the 280GB Optane 900P drive) it indeed would be useful though, but then again, it would be useful for many other SSDs that have no such "nice" model ID that can be understood by a glance, like for certain Samsung SSDs.

We'd rather wait for a public BIOS release for Prime X299-A. It's an essential machine in our test fleet (due to AVX-512 support and many CPU cores), so we'd try not to mess it up with a test BIOS

That spike was probably just a glitch in the communication between AIDA64 and the EC (Embedded Controller) chip of your motherboard that provides the "CPU" current and "CPU" power readings. While the "CPU Package" and "CPU IA Cores" readings are provided directly by the CPU, and there's no communication issue possible there, fortunately.

I'm not sure if you mean that the indication of thermal throttling is a bug in AIDA64 or something else. If you're doubtful about the validity of the throttling reporting, you can check it with alternative monitoring software as well. I'm sure they all will report the same amount of throttling though

It means whatever you've done to your system made things worse

We cannot add such readings to the hardware monitoring module simply because the UpTime statistics cannot be collected in a reasonable time span in all cases. If you have a huge event log with tons of entries, collecting UpTime statistics could take several seconds -- which is not acceptable when you have 1 second or even lower update rate for your external applications (or SensorPanel, OSD Panel, etc).

Sounds great, thank you for the info!

Thank you for the data and screenshot. What happens there is AIDA64 checks fan duty cycle (%) setting first, and when it's at 0%, it assumes the fan RPM reading should be zero. Are you sure the fan was spinning when you've done the dump?

What you can do is disable showing the AIDA64 main window in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / General, and of course to enable SensorPanel in the Preferences as well. Then you can launch AIDA64 by simply executing AIDA64.EXE (without any special command-line arguments).

There are several details that could be detected on a rooted device that are not available on regular devices. But we don't focus on those scenarios, simply because rooting is not a mainstream activity. PDF output is not available at this time, but you can convert reports after sending them in email into any format you wish.

It is most likely because under heavy stress your CPU is hitting the pre-configured TDP or power limits, and so it has to scale the clocks down to obey those limits. You can either unlock those limits to avoid such issues, and/or disable Turbo Boost and use 5GHz as the base clock for your CPU.

Those are not our products, so we cannot offer them for free.

Do you think it could be related to the Windows 10 major update of 1803? Also, please let us know more about your hardware configuration. Motherboard model, CPU type, HDD(s) / SSD(s), video card(s)... Thanks, Fiery

Do you have Asus AI Suite installed? What video card(s), HDD(s) and SSD(s) do you have?

Please let us know more about your hardware configuration. Motherboard model, CPU type, HDD(s) / SSD(s), video card(s)... Thanks, Fiery

It's coming in the next AIDA64 beta update

Have you tried this one? https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/23295/Intel-Rapid-Storage-Technology-AHCI-for-Windows-XP-on-Intel-NUC

Can you please post a screen shot, showing what values are you looking for and how they're measured by aquasuite? Also, please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Sensor Debug --> Aquaero Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic, or attach the results as a TXT file to your post. You may need to enable status bar in AIDA64 / main menu / View first. BTW,what's issue #2?

You may be able to improve on that, but please keep in mind that not all mobile computers can work without throttling under heavy stress, especially slim cased notebooks (a.k.a. ultrabooks).

Please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Video Debug --> ATI GPU Registers. Copy-paste the full results into this topic, or attach the results as a TXT file to your post. You may need to enable status bar in AIDA64 / main menu / View first. Thanks, Fiery

Do you mean a similar graph that the AIDA64 SensorPanel and LCD modules already offer, but with a smoother line shape?

Not all notebooks are able to monitor the fan RPM, but we can give it a try. Please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Sensor Debug --> ISA Sensor Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic, or attach the results as a TXT file to your post. You may need to enable status bar in AIDA64 / main menu / View first. BTW, do you have a factory software (made by Lenovo) that can measure the fan RPM? Or can you see the fan RPM in the BIOS Setup perhaps? Thanks, Fiery

Thank you for your feedback!
