hey guys

i built a new pc and everything was running smoothly and then i decided to check the temperature and something didn't add up. my cpu temp was going from -128 to 128 degrees in seconds so i opened up speed fan and it says my cpu is at 25 Celsius. its a bit tricky to explain so i took a screen shot of it. can anyone explain what is going on.
also what is AUXTIN3 and why is it such high temperature? ive done some research to no avail.

If I had to guess the auxtin3 is reading a faulty sensor. I tried doing some research to find what it is and couldn't find any information. I have my doubts that anything in your system is running that hot.

HWmonitor senses the temps of most of your components such as RAM, CPU, GPU, etc., so I would install it and check to see if any of your other components are reading that high. If a component in your system is running that hot that might help narrow it down.

thanks for replying. i did use thermal paste during the installation. i checked it with real temp and im getting the same resuslts . TJ max usually in high 70's and temp between 20-30 degrees. so i am starting to believe the rainmeter skin that is saying my cpu temp is at 100% is fault.

I would agree. Rainmeter is not showing accurately. I would double check everything against your bios and/or mobo manufacturers system monitoring program just to be sure, but there is no way your CPU just jumping temps that much or even getting that high.
