Temp on overclocked AMD 1800+

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.comp.hardware.overclocking.amd (More info?)

Here is my issue, I'm overclocking an AMD Athlon XP 1800+ (tbred) and
I'm concerned about the CPU temp, I keep getting different CPU
measures from differnet sources and I want to know which one is right
Sys specs are
AMD 1800+ @ 2000+ (12.5x133)
MSI K7N2 (MS6570) nForce2 chipset (333 fsb)
Kingston Value Ram 512mb pc2100
Win XP w/SP1

BIOS - 52 C
PC Alert 4 (OEM software) - 51 C
MBM 5 - 33 C
SpeedFan 4.11 - 51 C, 32 C and 33 C but are not labeled and all are
reading from same winbond chip
PC Wizard 2004 - (CPUID maker)
Processor Temperature : 34 °C
Mainboard Temperature : 32 °C
Power/Aux Temperature :51.5 °C

So any help deciphering this would be great!

Thanks!

I thought so to until I ran some programs on my system, my case is the
my case is the hottest, my cpu core is the coolest. I know this sounds
messed up but i have tried diffrent programs and they all read the same
including the bios temp.s.
Here is what i have:
2500+ unlocked ver. ( ZALMAN 7000a Cu ) all copper
Abit AT7-MAX2
1.5gb 3200 ddr
ATi 9800 pro
maxtor 160
maxtor 60
plextor 12X10X32 ( i had to keep it in paid $450 )
Asus dvd burner +/- 4x
400 watt ps.
4 uv fans ( bottom front blowing IN, one above that blowing OUT, back of
case bottom one IN above that one OUT right above that PS
1 uv coldcathode
4 uv round fan style coldcathode
2x ide rounded el cables.
4x led case feet

Thanks for the input! So which is the reading to go by? The CPU
diode or thermistor?
