Temp readings
First want to say I am new to overclock.net. I like what I see here and everyone seems very helpful.
Ok here is my Question. I have a AMD Athlon 2600+ (Thoroughbred). MOB is a ASRock K7VM2, Chipset is VIA (VT8375). I am running Hmonitor and the temp are showing 63C at idle and running full load shows 64c. I checked the Bios and it shows the same. The vcore is 1.7. I am not OCing. I bought a swiftech heatsink with a 80mm fan. The case itself is vented well, 3 80mm side fans, one of them is actually over the processor fan blowing out. 1 80mm fan blowing from the back and 1 80mm on front blowing in. The case inside itself is running at norm temps. I have updated to the latest Bios. All setting are auto in Bios. I have not had any issues with pc locking up, can play games fine. 1 Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem? 2 Is it just a false reading? 3 Can something cause it to be running with high temps? Thank you Last edited by VinceBlack : 02-20-05 at 04:55 PM |

Hi
__________________I have the same problem with athlon 64 my idle is 45c load is 60c there seems to be lots of false readings with amd chips. I have looked on the amd website and MSI website lots of people are reporting false readings. If your system is running ok why worry.

with the a64 incorect temp readings are normal.
other AMD's Im not sure about, but the one time I had a problem like yours with my 3000+ XP is was a windows problem.

try using speedfan and see what it reports your temps as.
