Hi, i recently upgraded my old phenom ii x4 945 to fx 4130 and i'm experiencing some issues. I enabled the CPU Smart Fan Control(Award bios, Gigabyte M68MT-S2) in the bios because the fan is quite loud on its 100%(6000rpm on a 80mm fan). Unfortunately it's worse now because the fan speeds up on almost no load(starting chrome, having 2 tabs open) and it constantly goes up and down on idle(you can literally hear its changing speed by a bit when the PC is on). I did found a temporary solution with SpeedFan to control fan pwm according to socket temp.
The other problem i'm having with the same cpu is temperature monitoring. The socket temp is ok but when i check cpu core temp i see some unrealistic temperatures(19°C when its 26°C in my room) and it also changes by a lot sometimes - jumps by 10-15°C randomly.
Wattage monitor maxes 65W, hence its max TDP of 125W, which i also find weird and sometimes when i turn my pc on the multiplier doesn't go over 14 so the Speed can't go over 2.8Ghz(The cpu i default 3.8Ghz)
I tried flashing my bios to the latest version but that didn't change anything. I'm just trying to find what causes this(I suspect it's the motherboard).
