MSI MAG Z590 TORPEDO works! (5V is off by 2V)

[Lowrida]

Only issue i have is the report on 5V that is off by 2 volts!

+12V: 12.10 V (min = +12.07 V, max = +12.12 V) +5V: 6.93 V (min = +6.92 V, max = +6.95 V) +3.3V: 3.35 V (min = +3.34 V, max = +3.35 V) CPU Soc: 772.00 mV (min = +0.64 V, max = +1.33 V) CPU Vcore: 674.00 mV (min = +0.67 V, max = +0.68 V) CPU 1P8: 0.00 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +0.00 V) CPU VDDP: 0.00 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +0.00 V) DRAM: 1.77 V (min = +1.28 V, max = +2.66 V) Chipset: 1.04 V (min = +1.04 V, max = +1.04 V)

Fancontrol works like a charm on Linux Mint 20.3 with kernel 5.13

Hello, could you verify the voltage in the bios?

[Lowrida]

Strangest thing... i went into the bios and i got all sorts of voltages to view, but no 5V. So maybe that's why it is off?? I don't know. But when i got back into Mint i directly noticed that fancontrol showed no fans, conky showed no fans and no voltages! So i checked if the module was still enabled, but it is gone! It is still in /etc/modules but it does not get loaded... tried 4 reboots!

[Lowrida]

I went into the source folder of the module and did a 'make install' and it got loaded again and all works. I remember that this afternoon i had a Mint update with a new version of the kernel. Could that be the reason? Do i have to do this every time i get an update of my kernel?

[Fred78290]

Hello, yes each time the kernel is updated you need to rebuild the module because the module is located in directory ls /lib/modules/

Ah ok, good to know. Anything on the 5V showing 6,9V?

It's hard for me to reply because i don't have this motherboard and secondly you don't see this voltage in your bios dashboard.

also i don't use mint as linux distribution so it's possible that you have a sensor conf file in /etc doing some transformation on result of sensors cmd line.

Until you can't check real values in bios, I don't have clear way to find the problem.

I saw that inxi gave the same value at 5V.. Sensors: System Temperatures: cpu: 42.0 C mobo: 40.0 C gpu: radeon temp: 27 C Fan Speeds (RPM): cpu: 561 mobo: 395 Voltages: 12v: 12.10 5v: 6.93 3.3v: 3.34 vbat: N/A

I don't have any configuration or correction files for sensors or a /etc/sensors.d folder! So it shows what it finds.

[Fred78290]

Normal inxi use sensors to collect infos.

Well I have no idea. Except mesure the voltage on your PSU.

The ports are al around 5.05 volts with minor difference.. so it reports at least 1,9 volts too high.
