Hi,

I have just set up my new build and the only problem I have is that the CPU temperature sensor is giving the wrong temperatures.

I am using the Aquaero 5 LT to monitor temperatures and control my fans and had the CPU sensor attached to the sidfe of my waterblock.

  • The CPU sensor will stay on 27-28c and I used the Ofset to alter this to the temperature of core 1 in HWMonitor 34-35c.
  • I ran Prim 95 to get a Core temperature of 60-62c but the CPU sensor remained on 35-36c.
  • I have tried alternative sensors and also tested the sensor on a BigNG controller but get the same.
  • I even removed the waterblock and placed the sensor on the green PCB next to the CPU lid but it made no difference.

The GPU sensor is accurate to 2 degrees and with offset set to +2 works fine and the temps rise steadly when run a GPU Burner.

I would be gratful for any help as I am out of ideas? :(
 
Am confused....

Are you using Core Temp to read the temp of the cpu while running prime95, Is that where you are getting 60-62c? Or is the aqua giving you that reading. Confused :P
