i think that my temps are mixed in AMD Overdrive also in ASUS AlSuite couse its reading MOBO's temps on the CPU field it reads 40c+ now on IDLE but when i check the temps on the HardwareMonitor its reading 15c-25cmax IDLE and i see that in Har.Mon. temps of mobo is 40c same like on AMD Overdrive and AlSuite what is up with that why is it mixed? its anoying couse i dont know which to trust

if i understand good i must not pass the temp margin? couse im now doing a test in AMD Overdrive and the margin is little above 13c and 12.5c if it comes to the 0 or -1 something like that it will reduce the power to the CPU untill temps are in the margin again?

it fell down to 11.5 now its on 14.5-15 constantly very nicely done by AMD with this program i like it so you can work with this margine and get the best out of CPU i like it very much bit will not experiment i got it stable at 4.4,15MHz and its performing very well thanks for the page much appriciated
