Real Temp - New temp program for Intel Core processors

[unclewebb]

I think TJMax=100C is a good default value to use and Intel agrees. That is their TJ Target for the E8600. If you use that and your sensors aren't stuck, you'll get some pretty accurate temperatures. Do a CPU Cool Down Test to make sure your sensors don't stop moving at lower temperatures.

Temperatures aren't that important anyhow. These things run great so enjoy your CPU. That's a lot more fun than trying to get any information out of an Intel rep. Do you think Cindy is human or a bot?

Edit: Your CPU temp comes from a different sensor and there's no guarantee that it is accurate either. It's just another number unless its accuracy can be proved. The core temp sensors aren't very accurate at lower temperatures so don't base your decision about TJMax on what your idle temps say.
