Strange Readings?

Post by CoreTemp-User101 »

Just fitted a Noctua-U12P on my Q6600 ( Gigabyte P35-DS4 )
as seen in

I use EasyTune 5 to monitor temps as its made by Gigabyte, i used to get around 37C idle with the crappy stock cooler, and with EasyTune im getting 19-21C with new cooler. THis is also shown in bios. However, when i check CoreTemp, it says the cores are at around 37-38C - how does this make sense?
I don't see how there can be nearly double the temp, so which one is really telling the truth so i can know how much to overclock the quad?

Thanks very much,
Addicted

EDIT: trying realtemp - it seems to have correct(?) tjunctions and is showing the same temps as what the other software is getting?

which app is correct? :S

Core Temp report is correct, TJ Max is 100 C. Try the latest RealTemp and you'll see that it's fixed in RealTemp.

Take a look at my screenshot (same CPU, Q6600@3GHz):

i thought the tjmax for the q6600 b3 was 85-90? :S
aka what real temp is saying

EDIT: new realtemp says theyre at 30 idle, so i suppose thats better than coretemp at least (with tjmax as 90)

Oh, yes yours is B3, mine is G0 so I think that there is a difference of 10 C.
