File/Preferences/Stability/GPU sensor support.

I would like to know how to turn on a second unique Sensor Panel. I figure it must be possible as @Fiery said in 2013... "We do have plans about multiple SensorPanels,"

Wouldn't yellow start at around 75% and red around 90%?

Well the fan speeds showed after i turned off the cam software but i think that might turn off the custom fan profiles? Also noticed with the cam software on my disk activity in AIDA went away. Anyway, cam software often looses connectivity with the individual fans and sometimes a fan will speed up to full for no reason. I never have any of these problems with my MB fan controller so the NZXT GRID+ V2 is officially awarded with the esteemed designation of PIECE OF CRAP!

Well i finally got my RMA back. Installed the fan controler and cam software and drivers. Installed beta version of AIDA64 and turned on grid monitoring. Sensor panel would frequently not refresh to reflect changes, ie moving an item while CAM software was active. Would sporadically show fans 21 to 26, i have 5 fans plugged in with the first fan controller (20) not used. Have not successfully gotten fan speeds to display in AIDA64. Hoping this is fixable as the cam software is not customizable and, subjectively, a little ugly. I have always found the fan controller on the mb to work well. the only reason im using this grid thing is because it allows fan speeds to be individually controlled by cpu or gpu. looking forward to the day when this is available on mb controllers. p.s.- when i sent in my aforementioned comment to nzxt i got a reply from george perez stating... "Oh yes we can go ahead and do that sir no problem whatsoever that would be great to collaborate with a third party software i can go ahead and forward this to our Development team." Not only is his punctuation nonexistant, but i think he was being sarcastic! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Hello Fiery I unfortunately had to do an RMA for the GRID+ V2. In its little monitor program the wattage used and RPM for the 5 fans attached went out of bounds and a 6th ghost fan was shown as being attached. At this point i shut down the pc and removed the device. I really like being able to set individual fans to respond to either the CPU or GPU so im going to try again. So in my RMA to NZXT i said this... There is a program called AIDA64 Extreme which im sure is popular among the people who would buy the GRID+ V2. It would be nice to be able to show the fan speeds from the GRID+ V2 in AIDA64. I know the people at AIDA64 would be very happy to do this if provided the pertinent information. I hope my assumption that this would be welcome by you is correct.

I just installed the NZXT GRID+ V2. It has 6 individual fan controllers each assignable to respond to either CPU or GPU temps. Very nice. Is there a way for these fan speeds to be displayed in AIDA? Thank you for your help.

Well thank you for trying. Do you know if i would face the same problem if instead of windows spaces i just used the MB bios raid? Thanks again

Oh my hopes soared so high upon the reading of your suggestion. I installed this file... Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST) RAID Driver, f6flpy-x64.zip Reboot and nothing changed. I don't know if it even matters but the Volume would still not populate in Device Manager / Disk Drives. Thank you for your continued efforts. P.S. Finally got that leprechaun to talk and upgraded to AIDA64 v5.5!

went to Device Manager and the two seagate 3gb drives are listed under Disk Drives but when i open the properties and go to volumes tab and hit Populate an error appears "Volume information for this disk cannot be found". also under Disk Drives is listed the Microsoft Storage Space Device. under the Properties / Volumes for that it does populate. seems as if windows is hiding the physical drives for the Storage Spaces.

P.S. - Just installed win 10 and they are still missing

Hello Fiery Thank you for your reply. It seems that the two RAID related options are already enabled. I tried twice to copy n paste the requested files but the post didnt work, i think there were too many words. So i have attached said documents for u. Thanks wONKEyeYEs atadump.txt wONKEyeYEs raiddump.txt wONKEyeYEs smartdump.txt

Hello Fiery Thank you for your reply. 1- Same, just did a system reinstall. Same sata/raid drivers. 2- i have never directly edited that file but my preferences settings in AIDA were the same. 3- <engage sense of humor 1.2> don't quit yer day job. ;-) as i am still using 8.1, which is what my current version of AIDA was written for, i see no need to upgrade . i imagine i will eventually move to win10 (for DX12)but i will still try to flog my current version of AIDA as my money tree was plowed down when they built the new wall-mart next door. but i promise that as soon as i get that leprechaun i have tied up in the basement to tell me where his pot of gold is i will certainly upgrade. i still give AIDA64 10/10 and recommend it to all my OCD control freak friends.

Well here's a weird one. I have two 3TB seagates and applied windows storage spaces to them. They mirrored fine, seemed like a simpler solution than raid. Then i did a system re-install and windows seemed to re-mount the drives automatically without any trouble. The only thing that changed was the sensor panel no longer showed temp info for those two physical drives. After Storage Spaces and before System Re-install... After Re-install with Storage Spaces functioning... The thin green line is utilization for Drive E which i think must be the Storage Spaces drive. In Sensor Panel, Modify Item, Utilization the list shows drives C,D,E, and H which would be optical. But the Temp readings have gone... Only my C drive Samsung and my D drive W.D. show in Temp. In AIDA64 Physical Drives they show... Drive 3 & 4, the two physical drives show as does the storage space applied to them Drive 5. Here are my system specs... CPU - Intel Core i5-4440 3.1GHz Quad-Core (viciously O.C. to 3.3GHz) Motherboard - Asus Z87-A ATX LGA1150 Memory - Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1866 Storage - Samsung 840 Pro Series 256GB 2.5" SSD - Western Digital BLACK SERIES 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM - Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM ST3000DM001 - Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM ST3000DM001 Video Card - Sapphire Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition 1GB -GIGABYTE GV-R777OC-1GD Power Supply - Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 550W ATX12V (My systems max power draw is 261W) Optical Drive - Pioneer BDR-209DBK Blu-Ray/DVD/CD Writer OS - Microsoft Windows 8.1 (OEM) (64-bit) This Noob thanks you for any help.

I would be happy being able to right click on the panel and choose between two different sensor panels.

Hey Alphasmsn Noticed your start icon. Hope your using Classic Shell 4.2.1

thanks for posting your sensorpanel file luvsmobile. i find the best way to learn this is to download someone else's and see how they did it. here is my latest incarnation... fREd no bkgrnd 2015-04-02.sensorpanel

I have 2 HD7770s one is a Sapphire Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition 1GB and the other a GIGABYTE GV-R777OC-1GB. when i run the GPGPU benchmark the gigabyte (GPU1) is noticeably faster. Would this be because of differences in the cards or because of differences in how they are used? I guess if i dont get an answer here i will have to take them out and reverse their order, oh the MB is an Asus Z87-A ATX LGA1150

Thanks for the work around Fiery. It worked. The following also works for amd cards... Apparently the missing gpu problem is caused by ULPS which saves power by turning off the 2nd card. This can be disabled in registry by searching for all instances of "EnableULPS" and changing the value from 1 (enabled) to 0 (disabled). Do not change setting "EnableULPS_NA". Love the panel!

Love the panel! i have 2 1GB HD7770s on an Asus Z87-A ATX LGA1150 and apparently if windows doesn't need the second card it is actually powered off. When i start windows and then AIDA64 Extreme Panel it shows GPU2 Diode as N/A and the bar for GPU2 Fan Speed is missing altogether, which is understandable since the card is unpowered (but it would be nice, aesthetically, if the GPU2 Fan Speed bar didn't disappear completely). This does not change when i start an application that initiates the second card. i have to shut down AIDA64 and restart it to get the panel to once again show GPU2 Diode temp and GPU2 Fan Speed. Now after i have restarted AIDA64 with GPU2 powered and have GPU2 info showing in the panel if i shut the app down and GPU2 is powered off it, of course, goes back to no info for GPU2. But, at this point, if i restart the prog that initiates the second card then AIDA64 updates and properly shows the GPU2 Diode and GPU2 Fan Speed info without restarting AIDA64. So it seems it will only update and show the temp and fan speed for GPU2 if it has seen the card already but not if the card appears "out of the blue". Would this be a "bug"? Here is after boot without GPU2 powered Here is after boot with GPU2 powered. Each card is 1GB and the Video Mem guage shows over 1GB of memory used indicating that GPU2 is powered. (this is not the only indicator i have for GPU2 being powered) Here is after restarting AIDA64 while GPU2 is powered, everything is now working.

Wow, there's just more and more to this proggy! Here is my first try... 2015-03-02.sensorpanel I too would like to see the sensorpanel file for luvsmobile. Here is my second try, yes i have too much time on my hands. ;-) Idle... Under Load, AIDA64 System Stability Test Stress CPU, FPU, and GPUs... 2015-03-04.sensorpanel After getting conflicting information on which sensor in AIDA64 represented the Intel Tcase temperature (Motherboard, CPU), I decided to treat core temp as the Tcase limit for safety.
