Wrong Temperature with CT 0.99.x and 1.0RC1

[Overmind]

Hi, I have installed CT 0.99.x and CT 1.0RC1, but with both versions i have trouble.
With both versions the temperature was displayed wrong.

CT 0.99.x and 1.0RC1 show 27 degree Celsius, but EasyTune 6 from Gigabyte show 44 degree Celsius.

I have the following hardware:

Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 (Chipset: AMD 990FX and AMD SB950)
AMD Phenom X6 T1100
2x 2GB Corsair DDRIII 1600 CL9

Please see section #7 of the FAQ

Ok, but why can EasyTune 6 display the right temperature?
Have only the manufacturers this information about the offset?

[The Coolest]

Because easytune doesn't use the same sensor that Core Temp is using.
It uses the onboard temperature sensor and Core Temp uses the processor's built in sensor, which has an offset of around 15C

[Overmind]

ok, thanks for your answer.

Why do you not take the same sensor as EasyTune 6?
Or why do you not take the offset in CT?

[The Coolest]

Because Core Temp doesn't use motherboard sensors, it only uses sensors built into the processor.
