AMD FX 8350 wrong temperature reading don't know which software should i trust :/ halp

Load Temperature Before

which software should i trust for cpu temperature ? i just installed h100i but i am not sure if the temperature is good for a h100i :/ it was a pain in the ass to install h100i on my shitty antec 302 case -_- i think i might have installed the fans incorrectly

UPDATE

Fixed it !! by ditching my shitty antec 302 case now i have switched to Cooler Master HAF 922

and these are my results. But is this temp okay ?

Idle Temperature Now

Load Temperature Now

BIOS or Overdrive is your best bet with AMD , SOFTWARE is usually wrong.

I like HWINFO.

rdawg16 · Apr 1, 2016

is my temp good ? or do you think its too high ?

Dark Lord of Tech · Apr 1, 2016

With the 8350 it should be 62c or UNDER.

rdawg16 · Apr 1, 2016

as you can see in the picture my CPUTIN is over 75c !! is that even correct ?

mamasan2000 · Apr 1, 2016

Check BIOS. If it still says 75, it's overheating.

madmatt30 · Apr 1, 2016

Go by the thermal margin in overdrive.that 9c margin is safe in all honesty but with a h100i even at 4.6ghz I would expect around 20c or maybe more.

^ he would have been better off then spending his budget on a better case then & a good aftermarket air cooler.

$120 on a water cooler was not a sensible purchase to get below average performance because of poor case design.

75 is when i am stress testing as you can see in the picture i am stress testing using aida64. But idle CPUTIN aka bios cpu temperature stays 55c-60c so is that good ?

i got h100i as a gift

but when i built my pc i was total noob so yea

madmatt30 · Apr 1, 2016

You can use package temp in hwmonitor & corsair link - you are good for up to 70c in those readings - they coincide directly with the 9c thermal margin in overdrive.

Ignore that cputin reading - its blatantly wrong , if it were right your CPU would be throttling.

madmatt30 :

i have turned off thermal throttling in bios due to overclocking and i have noticed that CPUTIN and BIOS temp is same. I have also noticed that the h100i tubes gets so hot when i am stress testing is that normal ?

mamasan2000 · Apr 1, 2016

55-60 C in BIOS is way too hot. It should be around 40. Should only reach 55 C when you are stresstesting.
