Hi, I have been looking at this issue for a few hours and cant seem to find a solution, I am guessing a faulty sensor but its still a little worrying. When I was running CPUHWMonitor, Everest and many other hardware monitors one of them was reading a whopping 80c, the issue is that it doesnt state exactly what part of the PC it is, just that its TMPIN2. I have felt all over my PC and cant feel anything really hot, works fine with games, it stays either 80 or 81c at idle, not sure if it changes under load but still its high as hell. Here is a screen shot

Think I should be worried? Nothing is overclocked by the way, its just that heat = overclocking and cooling section :P
 
should be ok probably a faulty sensor ur the software is picking up an invisible sensor. But i would suggest checking ur findings with other programs eg speedfan see if u get the same results

I get the same results in all the sensors I have tryed, but temp isnt really going up or down. So thats why I am thinking faulty sensor.
 
I'm sure I have pretty much the same issue on my pc to be honest. I just disabled the option to view it where ever I can now as is doesn't change temps...

:confused:

Well I tryed putting Thermal Paste on the NSB, but it didnt change, I turned it on and as soon as I logged it was 79c, then 80, now stuck at 81 while watching a movie and defragging so it must be faulty because it aint even rising past 81, even spiked down to 10c at one point :P. So I will just leave it I think, googled it and there was a few other people had the same issue with that Temp so I guess its alright.
