I got AMD FX 4170 on MSI 970a-g43 motherboard
while I was setting up cool&quiet I noticed something strange.
Idle temperature in CoreTemp reads like 12 degrees, about the same in HWinfo, but in bios idle says ~45. I used clickBios and it says the same
my cool&quiet setting are:
cpu min fan speed 12.5%
cpu smart fan target 40'C
When I touch the cooler it doesn't seem any hot, like ~30'C, which kinda suits the fan speed of around 1500 on idle (read in HWinfo). Note that I have Titan cooler that goes 900-2800rpm, when I stress the cpu it goes to ~2400 with around 50'C in HWinfo and just above 60 in clickBios.
any ideas why do my idle temps look weird?
I'd expect 30'C idle...
