I am using AMD A6 6400K cooled by the fan that comes with the package on the ASUS A68HM-K motherboard. I also applied thermal paste on top of the processor. Here is what happens when processor runs at 3.9GHz and the fan at full speed:
In HWmonitor under my processor, package temperature shows as high as 85-90 degree C. In coretemp cpu temperature shows like 15-25 degree C. In AMD Overdrive cpu temperature shows like 49-55 degree C. In all of the softwares I used motherboard socket temperature remains same like 47-49 degree C.
So what is happening here? Is there any software to measure the processor temperature accurately?
Thanks in advance.
