E7300 + Core Temp :/

Built a new rig for my other half after the Dell bit the dust and all is well, done a modest overclock to 3.34Ghz with RAM 1:1 for starters but for some reason the latest CoreTemp wont read the temperatures properly.. Stays at 55C per core and doesn't budge even under load! lol

Any clues? TIA

System is :-

E7300 M0 stepping
2GB OCZ 6400
GF7600GT < from old rig
WD250GB HDD
Asus P5Q P45
 
Does realtemp report the same?

TBH i'd look at the mobo bios first and foremost TBH as that's probably got something to do with it!

My e7200 in an Intel ITX mobo reads fine (aside from 10c difference here and there :D) using coretemp, speedfan and realtemp.

seems like you got a simular problem to my E8600, when stressed there was no difference between load and idle temps, checked using Real Temp, Core Temp and HW Monitor, since overclocking there seems to be movement in core temps between idle and load.
Sent a email to Intel they basicaly said there is no problem and that I should contact the programme vendors and possibly a new BIOS - running latest.
 
Stuck sensors me thinks.

My e7200 are stuck below 40°c

When it's not overclocked, it's stuck at 40°c idle and load. If i chuck more voltage through it, i can get it to go above 40°c loaded.

Looks like yours is stuck at 55°c, try pushing it even further, you may very well manage to get it to go above 55°c.

What are the temperatures reading in the bios?
 
Hmm not checked in the bios yet, where is it located? Not pushed it that much, 3.6 in orthos small ffts and no budge..

If this is a stuck sensor is it cpu or mobo rma time?
 
I had a similar problem with my e5200 on asus p5kpl-vm mobo. One of the core temp was just stuck at 56C. It wouldn't budge. The other core temp would move normally. Other than that the processor was working perfectly. It seems this 'sensor stuck syndrome' is pretty common with 45nm chips. I upgraded to e7300 and both core temp vary normally so it's probably cpu issue.

Before updating my bios I was getting 48C idle with e7300 but after 26C idle so bios update alters the way it reads temp.
 
I have o/c E8600 @ 4.25 and i get 39C with core temp idle and 50C on full load but with real temp it can be up to 10C different on both readings... which one you trust more i suppose.
 
I have an E7300. One core permanently reads 58 degrees, but the other seems to work fine. However, I don't even bother to monitor temps any more, a my PC is solid as a rock and dust free.
