it is not on air/water

Nope not on water, just standard case and mobo fans. The reading is from speedfan, I also recall seeing it before but cant remember what software. must have got rid of it when I upgraded to Win7

The sensor might be bust, try another piece of software or your bios and see what that reads to check.

check in your bios ,if you get a true reading here ,try some differant software

Ah speedfan does this with me as well, it's a known problem. It also gives false 100c readings for some things as well for some reason.

Do you recommend any software? I'm running win 7 x64 so something compatible with that would be good as I just keep hitting brick walls

try realtemp
its a nice bit of software

Try using Coretemp- that works fine for me. I used to use speedfan but found that 2 of my readings were erroneous, due to an issue with my motherboards compatibility.

Another good one is HW Monitor.

HW monitor is cool coz its easy to read and tells you everything on one screen. Also has a x64 version.

One thing i will mention is that the zipped version gave me lower core temps (30c) than the installed version (45c).
