Temperature Readings

csmdew · 07-26-2008, 05:31 AM

My gpu is running at 46c using gpu-z, hwmonitor, sisandra, and 3 more programs I'm using. All critical components, cpu, mb, gpu, and hdds are running between 32 and 46c but don't know what the 80c item is. It shows up as auxiliary temp on sisandra, temp3 on speedfan, and tmpin2 on hwmonitor. Still scratching my head and computer still crashing every 5/6 hrs.

After considerable time it is now concluded the 80c is my psu and that the 5v maybe providing the wrong info which in turn is cauing the computer to think that it is running at 80c and then it shuts down after a few hours; thats according to the ultra people so they are going to send a replacement for it. We'll see if that fixes the problem.

but psu's arent smart? they dont usually report thier temps?

csmdew · 07-29-2008, 06:13 AM

using pc wizard it shows up as power/aux temp; so my conclusion power means psu and the folks at ultra agreed, so I guess some are smart

Its the P/S temp. If it cant read it, it gives off wild readings. I would not worry about it. I,ve saw some that read like 256c. Like you said its the same reading as PC wizards power/aux temp.

So u say my shut downs are probably something else then. Usually about 6hr running and then it reboots to improper shutdown screen and I have to use start using last known good config. Sometimes it will start and sometimes not but if I shut it down for say 10mins then it will boot back up. I have tried about everything I know and removed every bug I can find using multile scanners but just when I think its ok, bam down it goes, really frustrating.

its most likely a driver error

What kind of P/S do you have? Have you updated the Bios to F6?
