A while ago a was having trouble with temperatures. Motherboard was giving me warnings of it going 72-75c.

I got a new cooler its been fine.

But i just got a new message saying its at -1.

MSI afterburner and Open Hardware Monitor both have the CPU temps at around 30.

Which program is causing the warning messages? TBH I would just ignore it as it's very common for some motherboard headers to be read incorrectly and normally monitoring programs will give a value of -1, 255 or some temperature in the billions.

Its a message from some asus software i think. The make of my motherboard.
