Out of Whack Temp?


Recommended Posts

Smartguardian reads that my CPU is at ~30C at idle, Chipset at ~40C, but the PWMIC is 78C! I only noticed since I was planning on overclocking and I installed the program. The computer has been running rock solid for months, and gets tons of use in BF2(it's Rig #1 below). I did try overclocking, and during Prime95, the PWMIC went up to 85C. CPU was 58C and Chipset 44C(CPU probably too hot, but I was just messing with it). I installed an 80mm fan over the PWMIC spot on the board and it made no difference. Could it be just plain wrong? How does one check, and how does one fix it?
