I'm getting weird temp readings on my Desktop. As you can see by the screenshot, both give off completely different readings.

Their is no way the CPU is at 14 degrees with all cores at 100% and it was no where near 105 degrees like HWMonitor shows. (Opened side-panel and felt it myself, it was warm nothing more)


My specs are:

MSI FM2-A55M-E33 Motherboard

AMD Athlon II X4 760K Black Edition @ 3.8GHz

8GB (2x4GB) Corsair RAM @ 1333MHz

500W Generic PSU

Palit Nvidia GTX 750 Ti 2GB Edition

Anybody know what this problem could be? It's also causing my fans to spin at insanely high speeds (4326 RPM) when it just isn't necessary.
Any help would be deeply appreciated.

So I should be safe then? I just switched the port I had my fan plugged in and its dropped too around 1900 RPM Idle and 3000 RPM under full load. Temps still giving false readings though haha.

Another thing though is that my BIOS is reporting 50 degrees straight on boot up, could it be a faulty temp sensor?
