Add Support for AMD Opteron 8 Core?
Posted: Mon Aug 22, 2011 9:49 pm
Are there any plans to add support in CoreTemp for the AMD Opteron 6136 (8 core) processor?
I would like to use Core Temp (via GetCoreTemp.dll) on a system with 2 AMD Opteron 6136 processors. The Core Temp app reports the processors as 6137 instead of 6136, though it seems to report reasonable temps for all 16 cores. But when using GetCoreTemp.dll from my app, it only reads proper temps for the first 2 cores of the first CPU, then all zeros for the rest, and TjMax is always 0. Are the couple non-zero temperatures even reliable?
I am using Core Temp version 0.99.7, but the latest supported CPU list, as of v1.0 (RC1) still does not include the 8 core AMD Opteron. Would it be worth trying v1.0?
