I know this may sound like a silly question but has anyone experienced increased CPU temp after installing AMDs X2 driver from their website. I have noticed that my idle temp has gone from 34C to 48C after installing the AMD driver. If I remove the AMD driver, the CPU temp reverts back to 34C at idle. I am using ASUS Probe to measure the CPU temp. Could it be that the AMD driver just affects the reading through the Asus software.
 
Since removing the AMD driver I havent had any problems was more just curious as I want to increase my overclock and was wondering which temperature was correct as to not push things too far. Also I wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem as it cant just be me.
