kingdingeling Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 I just built a rig for a mate, hardware is the following: E7300 @ Xigmatek HDT-S1283 MSI P45 Neo3-FR 4GB A-Data Vitesta Gigabzte GTX260 Core216 OCZ StealthXStream 500W 400GB Samsung and 250GB WD drives and 2 dvd drives When I fire up CoreTemp / RealTemp / HWMonitor / anything, I get 38C as the temps, no matter what clock speed, idle or load, or what voltage. You other guys with an E7300 (Smith, Philbrown etc...), have you seen anything like that? Anyone know if the temp sensor can be sort of stimulated in a way, like dead pixels on a screen?

Dude, I got the same exact problem, mine reads 57 degrees on CoreTemp doesn't change, RealTemp says 52 Degrees and doesn't change either. I hope someone knows something about this.

The Smith Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 I also got something like that. However it affected only one core, and it was stuck @ 34C. The other one was fine, however. I thought it was stuck/broken, until I saw it beginning to vary again, using OCCT monitoring. So all in all I did not bother with that. And BTW, my E7300 is sold. Now I'm back to 65nm, with my E6750. So yeah try OCCT to see what it will give you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingdingeling Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 I also tried OCCT, same problem. @ Darkfuneral, google is your friend Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Smith Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Ok then I don't know. It was probably a luck on me then... Did you use it on sub-zero cooling? Just a guess, since I did... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdingeling Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Unless the HDT-S1283 counts as sub-zero cooling, no Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing you can do is RMA the processor, when the E8400s came out they had that same problem, a lot of people RMAed the processors.

If I would do that(since I have the same problem) what would I tell newegg as the problem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Stuck sensors are a known problem for 45nm's and P45's. From what I've heard. Use RealTemp to calibrate it your CPU. http://www.techpowerup.com/realtemp/docs.php Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdingeling Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Wait, so there's nothing really that we can do about it? When you speak of calibrating RealTemp, will that change anything about the situation? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you speak of calibrating RealTemp, will that change anything about the situation? I don't think so unfortunately Maybe after some time it will come back like mine did?
