ASUS SmartDoctor
ASUS SmartDoctor is designed to satisfy two major goals. One is to monitor the
graphic chip status, alerting users about abnormal events, such as fan malfunction or
chip overheat. The other, as the name "SmartDoctor" implies, is to "cool" down the
graphic chip smartly when it is not necessary for it to be kept running at full speed.
Functions
•
Monitors graphic chip temperature, fan speed and voltage
•
Notifies users aboutY irregular hardware events, such as temperature overheat,
fan malfunction, and out-of-safe-range voltage.
•
Forcibly cools down the graphic chip when the graphic chip's temperature is over
an acceptable temperature, to protect the graphic chip from overheat damage.
•
Cools down the graphic chip's temperature when it is idle, and restores it to its maxi-
mum capability once needed, thus smartly extending the graphic chip's lifetime.
•
Cools down the CPU's temperature (for Windows 98/98 Second Edition only) to
lengthen CPU lifetime.
