sleepybp Posted July 9, 2003 Posted July 9, 2003 id have to say that you must have it backwards! There is no way your cpu can be cooler than your system if your running air cooling! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RF321 Posted July 9, 2003 Posted July 9, 2003 That's what is reported via PCAlert4, not sure how reliable of a gauge that is but just typing it as it is displayed thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trakfast11 Posted July 9, 2003 Posted July 9, 2003 i'm not as familiar with the MSI boards. does anyone know what type of system temps to generally expect on this board? i know that in the past i have read atleast one review for a board (not sure what mobo it was or they were, been awhile) and a review for a graphics card. Both had very small blotches of thermal grease between the northbridge chipset and the n/b heatsink (didn't cover much surface area) or the gpu and the gpu heatsink. so if there is poor contact, that may also be the case. and i also noticed that sometimes after i flashing to a newer bios, the temp readings get changed as well. i just remember noticing that in the past when i flashed. that part is off topic though.
