Hi - I'm getting a bit confused about what my actual CPU temps are for my Intel E-2180. At present I'm getting different temps reported by Speedfan and HWMonitor, and the HWMonitor temps are about 12-15c higher. I've tried CoreTemp but it doesn't seem to run under Vista64.

I have a feeling that the Speedfan temps are correct as temps of around 78c at 3.4GHz with 1.5V matches what I'd expect based on various threads and articles I've read. I know, 78c is high but I plan to fully clean re-seat my Tuniq Tower with AS5 and a Scythe Slipstream 1200 fan as soon as the fan arrives (I have 3 on order).

All thoughts welcome please :)

I have that same CPU and am also running Vista 64 Ultimate. I use speed fan and everest and they both say the same. Sounds like HWMonitor is wrong.
