Help!!! My Power Fan is Underperforming!

[DavidWright05]

Hi, I completed my new PC recently and using both the BIOS and a monitoring program supplied with the ASUS MoBo, I am recieving warnings that my Power Fan is dipping under the "acceptable" level. Apparantly that level is 800 RPM, and it seems to hover around 795-815. Is this something to be worried about?

My MoBo (Asus P5b) Temp is 37 C

My CPU (Intel E6600) Temp is from 41-44 C

Are those alright?

Any advice would be great. I want to make sure i'm not melting my brand new PC. Thanks.

Oh I almost forgot to add:

My PSU = Antec TruePower 550W (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817103931)

I am using 2 HDD.

According to Antec website,your PSU is supposed to be "silent",that means that the fan has to operate in low speed.I think you don't have to worry yet.

Well it might just be that it revs up slowly... It's up to 900 RPM now and stable there so i guess it heats up slowly..

What's the proper temp for intel E6600 do u know?

Power supply fan you mean? The fan is probably thermally controlled, so unless it's really hot in the PSU, the fan will operate very slowly.
