I think speedfan is great, it can adjust fan speeds automatically using your preferences, it can beep at u and pop up messages for different events (like "Your CPU is about to blow up...") all it takes is abit of customizing and it works wonderfully! why arnt u happy with it?

EDIT: just been looking at sensorsview pro, looks quite good, is the free download restricted in anyway? also can it adjust the fan speeds automatically? if not i'll stick with speed fan

Whats the highest your chipset has been. I've had it upto 47c BUT the room temps were about 26c already.

The highest I have seen my chipset is at 42 degrees.

I just dont find it too good compared to what a fan controller could do.
Speed fan wont change my Aska amber on my Scythe Ninja (god knows why), and it doesn't pick up my other 3 case fans.
Only seems to controll my north bridge fan and thats about it :S

Why are my temps fluctuating between 40 and 60 with Asus Probe 2?
They are constant in the BIOS.

I'm using BIOS 1009.

Cheers.

Fluctuating when idle?

Both cores are running folding@home right now and the CPU and MB temp jumps around wildly. One second the CPU might be 45C and the next it would be 75C. :confused:
