Core Temp prob

Baldrick1001 · 3 Jun 2010 at 21:25

I have a small problem with core temp - In that I have two stuck cores on my Q9650 - not bothered about that, it's one of those things - but what is strange is that the location of the two stuck cores changes, on reboots, within Core Temp - Any ideas why - the picture below may help...

Many thanks

(picture will come once photobucket is up & working again. In summary, I have a core that is stuck at 39C and it moves from Core #1, Core #2 & Core #3.

8 times out of ten it is shown as core #3 - by why would it move??

Any help appreciated.

Has anyone else noted this phenomenon?

Thanks for the reply.

I'm not really concerned about the stuck sensors, I'm just curious why the stuck sensor "moves" core position within Core Temp - i.e. it was nominated as core #03, but on reboot moves to core #2 - is this unusual?

Many thanks

seems to change every four to five reboots - any ideas?

Many thanks

Hello again.

The PC is still working fine but I can't seem to get the core temp location change thingy out of my head - as per the first post.

Could someone please confirm how the core temps are actually routed from the CPU to the motherboard - is there a dedicated pin on the CPU -I'm just trying to work out why my stuck cores sometimes change location after rebooting/shutdown. Is it a motherboard, bios or CPU problem?

Thanks for any help.

BTW both Core Temp and Everest show that the temps of the stuck cores move location - realtemp always shows the stuck sensors in the same location - i.e. core 02 & 03

Many thanks
