I bought a new budget setup:

MoBo
Cooler
CPU is a FX4300 Black Edition

The problem I have is with the shown temperatures:

Now while 15°C sound awesome, I am pretty sure it is not the real temperature as it is way below the temperature in my apartment. I heard that the FX CPU's are reporting those temperatures correctly under load, I only get like 25-30°C under load.

Is there any way to have the real temperature shown or convert it somehow? When I look at my BIOS it always stays at like 25-30°C on idle. But this bugging me since my last CPU (AMD 965) died of overheating and I am a bit paranoid.

Thanks for your answer, bummer all those tools cannot show me the real temperature or margin.

I really don't wanna activate Overdrive since it could potentially flag my CPU as being overclocked and make me lose warranty.
