  1. On your motherboard AI Suite reconfigures the sensor chip, effectively altering the CPU temperature readouts. We used to have a workaround in AIDA64 for that situation, but it caused a lot of confusion amongst AIDA64 users, so we've removed it.

    Please note that the lower temperatures (that AIDA64 shows before running AI Suite) are the ones measured by the sensor chip, so we would treat them as the "real" ones actually... :)

  2. thanks for your fast response.

    I was looking for a license with lifetime maintenance.

    all other softwaretools i'm using have the option to purchase a license with lifetime maintenance.

    I'm sorry, but we don't offer such license. BTW, even Windows itself has no such license ;) Also, most anti-virus and security software have no lifetime license.

  3. Actually, usage period is not limited in AIDA64 licenses. What's limited is the maintenance (support) period, the time until you can upgrade to newer releases of AIDA64. The regular AIDA64 license covers 1 year maintenance, so for 1 year you can benefit from updating to new AIDA64 releases, and you receive free technical support as well. After that period expires, you can still use the last AIDA64 version you could upgrade to, for an unlimited time.

    So for example, if you bought a 1-year license in September 2011, you got AIDA64 v1.85 with that purchase. You could then upgrade to AIDA64 v2.00, v2.20, v2.30, v2.50 and v2.60 free of charge. And you can keep using AIDA64 v2.60 for an unlimited time, but you cannot upgrade to future releases of AIDA64 v2.70, v3.00, v4.00 (etc) anymore.

    Please note that there're longer maintenance period licenses, for 2 years and for 3 years, with considerable discounts compared to the price of the 1-year license. It's also possible to renew (extend) an existing AIDA64 license at 70% of the new license prices.

  4. i'll have to research this further, unless fiery wants to post a link to the relevant article

    Windows kernel's memory management is a mystery, so I personally would be interested to read a proper article that explains all those -- seemingly -- anomalies. AIDA64 reports what Windows kernel reports, so if you guys reckon those values don't add up, then it's only Windows kernel to blame or inquire ;)

  5. 1) Do you use Win7 SP1 64-bit?

    2) Have you ever had Asus AI Suite installed? Even when you uninstall it, some pieces (drivers, services) may be left off, causing collisions with AIDA64 in the background.

    3) Are you running any other monitoring software while using AIDA64?

    Thanks,

    Fiery

  6. It could be due to a background process, service or driver that also polls motherboard sensors, and collides with AIDA64 and other monitoring software as well. Maybe even though you uninstall ET6, some components (a service or a driver) are still left installed. If those components are still running hidden in the background, they can still collide with AIDA64 :(

  7. Very good, I tested with a digital multi tester and probed directly through one of the molex output cable, and I got 11.88 Volt just like AIDA 64 reported.

    Is it normal if the output only 11.88 Volt? Isn't it should be 12 Volt ++?

    Slight variations are absolutely normal, in either directions. 11.88V means it's only 1 percent deviation from 12.00V, so it's nothing to worry about ;) Anything above 5% would be an issue, and most likely would cause the system to produce various anomalies like BSoD or lockups.

  8. Please upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme Edition available at:

    http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild2139dz0wrgyqtnzip

    After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade.

    If it still provides inadequate sensor details, then please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Sensor Debug --> SMBus Dump (Full). Copy-paste the full results into this topic.

    Thanks,

  9. I'm sorry for the late response. We'll definitely get to trying to figure out if it's possible to measure NPU load on your card, but first we need to get a test hardware to check it out. I'll let you know in this topic when we have a definitive answer to the "Is it possible to do that in AIDA64?" question ;)

  10. Thanks for the information! I think that would be a very useful feature to add by the way: logging the reason(s) the stability test failed.

    Actually, there's no way to know, detect or "sense" which component is behind a computational failure. If you look at the way data is processed by the processor, a glitch could be anywhere inside the CPU or RAM. And a failing (weak) PSU could cause a range of issues due to providing unreliable voltage rails that may cause glitches in any part of the computer that uses electricity :)

  11. There's no way to tell which exact component is behind the failure. In most cases however it is caused by either the PSU, CPU or RAM. Also, you gotta make sure the hardware failure is not caused by overheating, so it's best to watch the temperature graphs and the throttling graph. If temperatures are not too high, then at least you could easily rule out overheating.

  12. We've implemented custom gauge states -- for both SensorPanel and Logitech LCD -- in the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme Edition available at:

    http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild2139dz0wrgyqtnzip

    After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade.

    It can be used to customize the current gauge states to implement tiny gauge sizes, and also to make a gauge design for fan speeds (that starts with red states and go up to green states). We'll work on the rest of the requested features.

  13. Please submit a RAID Dump, maybe there's something in it that we can use. Please have both RAID options enabled in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Stability (and restart AIDA64 after altering those options). Also, make sure to use the latest AIDA64 beta for the test runs:

    http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild2135wh2v8zrbcxzip

    We'll also try to get a similar SSD to do some internal test runs.
