So i have a MSI Motherboard and a Corsair H80i installed in my system with a FX-8350 CPU
My case has great airflow AND the H80i is on intake but corsair Link says the Temps are about 10-20 ( it changes a lot ) but my MSI Click BIOS II software says its around 40 for the CPU Temp..
Which one is right? oh and there is no overclock just stock 4GHz
Specs:
MSI 970A-G46
AMD FX-8350 with no overclock
Corsair H80i in Push Pull intake

I would say the Corsair software is correct. Try downloading HWMonitor, and see what that tells you. The FX chips are notorious for having inaccurate temperature readings at idle speeds, but become very accurate the closer you get to 100% CPU usage.

I have Hardware Monitor and the Corsair Link temp corresponds to the Package temp under the CPU drop down
but then i see a bunch of TMPIN values :O
