My core temps are fine - they show 54c on both cores when running orthos according to speedfan and coretemp whcih is what I would expect but the cpu reading shows 109c - WTF! I was idling with speedfan showing CPU 38c then it changed to 90c after a hour or so with nothing running and core temps still at 22c!. Where is the CPU sensor on the board - if I shutdown and reboot straight away BIOS hardware monitor shows 39c. I am tempted to ignore it cos it doesnt make any sense !.
