Hello to the 4rum and all proud owners of the Asus Maximus Formula. It's my first post in the forum. I just have a question regarding the temperature as well.
When I first got my mobo, I checked CPU temp in both BIOS and Asus Probe and they show the same temp (around 30 at idle). But since I flashed the BIOS to 0802, I notice there's a big change in temp as BIOS shows 50 when first starts up and Asus Probe still shows the same temp but the temp on Asus Probe keep decreasing as oppose to temp in BIOS keep increasing. (after a few min, Asus Probe shows 45 while BIOS shows 54) There's about 9-10 degrees difference between those 2, not sure if some of you might have the same problem but I wonder if BIOS version might cause the problem?
I download SpeedFan and it shows the same result like Asus Probe. As far as I know they both read the temp through BIOS so why there is such a difference? My core temps are normal I assume, around 21-24 for each core.
Should I update to the latest BIOS which is 0902?
