Never ben an issue so much as just a fact of limitations, a trade off.


I dont under this so called temp issue. Even if there was an issue with the thermister, as it were in the P5WD2, is couldn't be fixed by a BIOS flach nor would it matter what app was used to read it since the actual sensor thermistor sends the same info to any app. The only change that can be made/changed in our BIOS, is to readout the CPU IHS temp v/s the core die temps combined, since this is coming from the CPU directly.

so it's a hardware issue that can't be fixed?? that would really suck.. i dont get a correct reading on my 2nd core.

question about load temps. im seeing about 10-12 degree difference between 1st and 3rd core under load. does that mean i didnt install the heatsink properly?

edit: btw, this is after i installed a thermalright 120. i had a tuniq tower installed before and the temp delta was not this much. i did noticed thw thermalright had a way more convex base than the tuniq.

in F°, as Electric Eyes told you, it is normal fluctuation that can be influenced, like Kup said, by reseating your heatsink. But sometimes, only lapping would help, but you'll always have at least some 5°F difference. In anycase, you're fine. If those were °C, I'd worry
