Exactly when do I slag Prime95? I simply asked if it is truly reliable as errors can occur with the application even if there isn't a hardware problem.

and... "bashing Real Temp", seriously, I merely pointed out that in comparison to 3 other applications, it is the ONLY one that reports temperatures differently and the ONLY one that doesn't seem to line up with BIOS temperatures - wow I am really bashing Real Temp - I'm just stating a fact, calm down. Not to mention the fact I never even said anything about idle/load temperatures. For idle temperatures none of them are "stable" as the readings are quite sporadic.

I don't know whether you have had a bad day or something but don't quote me and have a go at me for something that I never even did.

First off, I wouldn't use Real Temp. I have used CoreTemp, Everest and HWMonitor and then compared it to the BIOS temps/volts and they seem to be quite reliable applications.

CPU-Z and HWMonitor (by the same people) gives bad voltage readings, it seems to use some kind of average, and doesn't update often. Everest however seems to match the BIOS and updates every second.

For temperatues, Everest, CoreTemp and HWMonitor all give rougly the same temperatures. Real Temp on the other hand tends to give about 2-3C more than every other application.



And this of course.
just so you know bios temps are not the same temps that realtemp sensors read/show.but the highlighed part does seem like your implying that realtemp isnt any good?
