Trust? CPUz or HWinfo64

I am 99.9% sure that CPU-Z is wrong.

This is what I was thinking, but this coincides with fitting a new cooler and my temps are massive, so I thought it could be right and I panicked.

I've gone from a 280mm aio to a Jonsbo HX6200D

Idle temp 32c > 47c I just thought was was a big step
Cinebench 72c > 95c

But I have gone from 4.75 @ 1.35v to auto @ 1.2v(set in bios)
This it with no side panel on

i can say for sure cpu-z is wrong as 2.2v would have killed your cpu. hwinfo is the best sensor app you can use. the reason for a sudden increase in temps is due to the rather heavy downgrade on cooler. a 280mm cooler can cool up to 300watts but that air cooler 150watts at most
 
lol its says 200w... genuinely i feel 105w best.
SHADOW ROCK LP is 130w and performs better.


Without knowing what CPU (might not even have used a CPU but a heatblock) they tested on and what temperature it kept it to, its a meaningless number.

I did wonder where the number came from.

I mean tbf when it came it looked good 6 heat pipes solid until. Got some weight to it.

But in bios it was at 56c this was my first hint it was poo. With the fan at 100% Cinebench hit into the 90's at stock speed
