I recently downloaded HW monitor to check temps and it had extremely high temps on CPUTIN and AUXTIN. (I dont even know what those words mean.)

These temps are when in idle.
The max temps are when i played Assassins creed 3 for about 5 minutes just to check the reading.

The Auxtin was 249C!
The SYSTIN was 176C!

what do these mean. is it a fault in HW monitor.

Im a newbie to these things so dont know anything about these.
So please help.
