This report addresses a recurring thermal issue observed on mainboards utilizing the (typically Intel LGA775 or similar generation platforms). The primary symptom is the mainboard reaching operational temperatures exceeding safe thresholds (≥70°C idle, >85-90°C under load), potentially leading to thermal throttling, system instability, or shutdown. The root cause is not solely firmware-related but involves hardware degradation, thermal interface failure, and suboptimal fan control logic within the Aptio firmware. The primary symptom is the mainboard reaching operational
Do not ignore this warning. Prolonged heat can warp the PCB and desolder components. Follow this diagnostic flowchart:
