I finally got this board up and running with an FX8350 and was curious about some temps. My previous Gigabyte board never saw temps that high at idle(~20c idle compared to this boards 39c) and it has all the same heatsink fans and what not. Here is a pic of the temps.

Coretemp shows 30c here, while HW and ASUS suite shows 43c. In the photo you can obviously tell where these temps are coming from, but what ones do I need to worry about the temps under FX-8350 or the one under CPU above that? Also whats up with TMPIN2 at 128c?!?

NOTE: these are not idle, I am installing a program while I do this.

Hard to compare temps between boards where any external thermal diode is involved - depends where the diode is placed for one thing. Also for CPU temps the voltages after LLC etc may be different, plus it could be just plain old inaccuracy.

One thing you do need to be mindful of is that if you install AI Suite and then run a third party monitoring tool like the one you're using above, it can cause polling errors which lead to incorrect readings.
