ok i have an asus a8v and i am ocing my 3500+ to 2560 and i have mbm with the 2 sensors for case and cpu

now theres a third sensor that i can choose "winbond 3", my questions are is this the chipset for my mobo and what should the temps be because when i load mu cpu they jump up quicker then my cpu does

my cpu runs at 35c idle and 44c to 46c load with a case temp of 26c the third sensor ranges from 28c up to 51c when the cpu is under load but the temp jumps alot quicker and returns to idle temp alot quicker then the cpu temp does

any info much appreciated thanks

could be
a) chipset
b) mosfet temp

either way -- temp is fine....

good to go!

cool thanks

thenut

video card is also a possibility... and if it is I can almost guarantee its offset 26c degrees, so add that... mbm stopped development last summer so its not a great utility for newer hardware... speedfan has a 26c degree offset for 6800 gts, its a bug in reading the sensor on those new cards

i dont think its the vidcard because it goes up when the cpu is under load like when im folding or running pi or somethink like that but ill run a couple of test to see if it is the vidcard

thenut

if it rises and falls with the cpu then its either nb or mosfets, possibly the psu

yeah thats what i was thinkin toward i thought there was some place to find out what the differnet sensors are for or where they read from but i cant find it anywhere
