Hmm...I have been using speedfan to check my temps, and its been pretty good...no problems really...when i got home from work today, I noticed that the temps for CPU and System were WAYYY off...especially since i am running air cooling... 
*Edit BIOS is reading same as speed fan...(speed fan reads from BIOS i know) Asus Pc-Probe (Its CRAP I Know...) Reads really BAD!! 
*Edit2 Core temps read normal as always..39-40 on both... I would say the Temp Probe is gone.... Latest BIOS installed... |

Not gonna bother with another edit... i was just playing with speedfan and the funny thing is...if i hit configure, and uncheck cpu and sys....hit okay...then go back to configure and check them off it will display the proper temps (39C for cpu, 36 sys) for about 2 seconds...then goes back to -99c and -36c.... has anyone ever had this problem...HELP! HWMonitor reading cpu right @ 36C |

Who cares. Your not even OC'd. lol... E8400's have problems with their temp diodes(sp?). Since your SS's say your at 3 Ghz. Don't worry about it. Shouldn't have that even installed if your not OCing. And if you are.. deal with it. Intel clocks CPU's at stock where they are for a reason. It's agood spot not to burn out in the worst of conditions. |

yeah im not really sure why u need to mesure your temps on stock clocks. but if u want a reallly good temp monitoring programs get everest. i have used everest for the past almost year now and ive yet to have a problem. cheers |

I wasnt concerned about the cpu burning up..not at all, my concern was that it was the motherboard was on the brink of death...and now that i am not bottlenecked by my GPU..i will be ocing...so ensuring i have as close a temperature reading as possible is very important...I have read that all temp monitors use a formula of DTS-TjMax to form the core temps. My question is...whats the Throttle speed (TjMax) of the e8400 series...is it 105C or 95C? 105 gives me an idle of 41-40 on cores...while 95C gives me 31-30 on the cores.... |

I've always checked the temps on any system I've built, for myself or others, regardless of whether I'm overclocking or not. Just because you're not putting additional voltage through a chip doesn't mean that it might not be making good contact with the heat sink or some other heat related issue. Usually I just check the BIOS on the first POST and then after stressing it a little but I don't think having a program like that to check once in a while is that bad of an idea personally. |

And to clear things up I do plan to oc...i just wasnt going to oc my cpu using a Geforce 8600gt...what would be the point??? Now that the 4850 is in...i am ocing...i will post my results so far in the Overclocking thread... |

lol... Overclocking these bad boys won't make my life run any faster. That and I like having computer parts around for at least a few years. If I was actually into CPU intensive shit like video editing or DVD ripping yeah I would O/C. And even then my hard drive would still be a bottleneck so I'd have some raptors jumping aroung. It's not all about the CPU. |
