Anyone know the answer or have any experiance (in general)?

Or An issue with my setup MoBO is a Gigabyte 8KNXP - Antec P150 case digital temp sensor and Thermalright 94 HS
The differance is normally like 15c (12c to 20c) in the cpu temp given by the m/b vs. a temp sensor (flat type placed to touch edge of cpu/socket but not between hs and cpu of course).

Some are accurate ,others are not. Since they have never been calibrated.

I believe the board you are running usually reports arround 10 degrees celsius higher than actual.

I aint signing nothing!!!
