May 2, 20179 yr Last night, I was running with my two headed VR rig in some games. I had two players running through the Rec Room, doing some of the latest content. Both VMs were working fine for about 20 minutes, when I got unrecoverable errors on both VMs simultaneously. I had to reboot the system. I wasn't able to observe the GPU temperatures directly, but I felt some real heat when I opened the box. It got me to wondering how to manage the various temperature controls spread across systems. For the GPUs, I assume that the VM which controls that GPU will control the fans on that GPU only. For the CPU cooler, I'm not sure who is the controller. I have the NZXT Kraken x62 AIO cooler, which has its own controls for fans. It is attached as a USB device to the mobo. If I unplug the USB connector, the cooler defaults to "max" settings. How do I monitor the temperature of my system as a whole? How do I make sure the CPU cooler is reacting appropriately without running NZXT SW? How can I diagnose whether an error is thermal related? --Brad

Most BIOS also have a setting for temp monitoring at which point they will beep when over temp. 25 minutes ago, harperhendee said: How can I diagnose whether an error is thermal related? Might wind up being some MCE (machine check events) within unRaid's syslog.
