Real Temp - New temp program for Intel Core processors

[gx-x]

Hello UncleWebb

First - Thank you for this great app !

second: when I set idle to -2 in .ini file, temp drops by 4 instead of 2 -1 works ok. To clarify: with no calibration my CPU idles @ 40C with -1 it says 39, with -2 it says 36C

PS. If understand correctly, for my e8200 I need to put -2 into ini file to calibrate it properly and compensate for DTS ? (I read your first post but somehow I am still not sure :P )

Thank You once more !

This really bugs me!



Which sensors are right? Which ones are wrong?

This really sucks!

I just remounted the cooler to see if I had bad contact: it was mounted very good and gave me similar temps as shown...

Good job Intel, 800 euro CPU's with defective sensors!

Maybe I should RMA it.

Edit: before I remounted it was 2Hrs PRIME stable @ 3,8GHz 1,3V, now its giving me an error after 8 minutes...

Should RMA it, and check the temps again.

Remounted again... Pulled the CPU out of the socket and put it in again... Load temps in Realtemp seem to be a bit lower... 52C to 56C stressed on 2 cores, stressed 38C on the other 2 @ 3800MHz.

Now using Thermalright paste instead of AS5. Maybe the AS5 was too old.

Lets see what happens now. I really want to hit 4GHz... This is my second QX9650. The previous one only did 3,6GHz, which was extremely bad.

But the sensors on that one worked fine. It idle'd @ 30C in Coretemp @ all 4 cores.

If this one fails PRIME @ 1.3V again i'll RMA it and get a E8500 for the time being.

LOL. Isn't this a great hobby? One has to be more patient overclocking and building PC's than you have to be @ fishing.
