    Asus PW5 DH under phae`

    I put my Kentsfied cpu under phase on this board using bios 0701 - can the BIOS read negative temps?

    Currently I have shut it all down as BIOS reads 262 deg farenheit.

    Cheers

    Just disable all thermal throttling and such.


    If you have a cooling question or concern feel free to contact me.

    The concern is that these are true temperatures - I really want confirmation that this is not a true reflection of the temps.

    Check contact etc mate, but 127 celcius sounds like a read error... What's the Evap temp showing - ie does it suggest there IS contact or is it sat v close to no load temps?

    @ Dumo - what temps in BIOS at stock?

    @ highlander - Well I stripped out the evap and contact was good (dissipated ceramique all over the CPU as has proven to be good contact).

    I think maybe the board has a temp read issue with Kentsfield?

    What windows software can I use to get a true reading?

    Or how do I calculate the reading from teh information I have?

    Temps below 0 won't register as that. I remember reading somewhere when the temps go below 0, it will start incrementing from the maximum it can read.

    EG if it's 240 then 266 would be 26C actual.
