ok i have a intel Q6600 with a thermalright ultra 120 extreme and as5.. my cpu is at stock speed but i just downloaded speed fan from this link: http://www.almico.com/sfdownload.php and it says my cpu is on fire at 105c..

it gives the following temps..

system: 35c
CPU: 18c
AUX: -3c
Temp1: -48c
Temp2: -48c
temp3: 0c
CPU: 105c
Internal Temp: 105c
Remote Temp: 104c

please help what does that mean

What motherboard, did you try CoreTemp as a comparison?

The CPU would of already throttled at 105c, I really doubt it's that high.

GPUs are entirely different than CPUs as far as temperatures go.

I'm pretty sure that 105 is your GPU temp, which is still high. I think SpeedFan is just labeling it wrong. Read on...

I'll bold your CPU temps:
system: 35c
CPU: 18c
AUX: -3c
Temp1: -48c
Temp2: -48c
temp3: 0c
CPU: 105c
Internal Temp: 105c
Remote Temp: 104c

Now, I think your temps are a little high for a TR120 and AS5. That being said, I would double check to make sure you didn't apply too much. All you need is a "grain of rice" worth of AS5 on your CPU. If you're not sure what I mean, go check the Arctic Silver website for application instructions.

As for your GPU: Are you using an 8800GT? If so, I bet your fan isn't spinning at the correct speeds under load. There has been a fan problem with a lot of them which keeps them at 24-29% speed regardless of load. Just download Rivatuner or something and move it up to 60% or so, and you should lower your temps a bit.

no im using an evga 8800 gts 512mb and i looked at the fan and its running REALLY slow...

also can someone explain this to me: "If temperatures don't meet Parameters, then SpeedFan 4.33 can configure Offsets to correct for Tcase (CPU or Temp x) and Tjunction (Core x). From the Readings tab, click on the Configure button, then click on the Advanced tab. Next, click on the Chip field directly under the tabs, then use SpeedFan's Help and HOW-TO icon included in the installation Program Group."

nowhere do i see the help and how to icon included in the installation program group..

then how hot is my cpu?? if its not 105 and its not 18.. then do i add 15 to the 18 then its 33c.. which is not hot for a quad core lol..

also how do i increase my gpu fan speed. for ntune dont u need an nvidia board?? i have an asus maximus formula. So would Riva Tuner work?

Calm down. All this WTF OMFG stuff makes you sound like a child.

Run the PC for a little bit to get it up to operating temps, then reboot and go into the BIOS. There is almost always a hardware monitor there, and it will give you accurate temp readings.

Could give everest a try and see what that reports back. There a 'no longer supported' Home Edition here (http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html) that may work or you could try out the Ultimate Edition which supports newer hardware but has limited functionality unless you buy it.

ok i downloaded everest and it says the following:

motherboard: 34c
GPU: 73c
GPU Ambient: 55c
hard drive 1: 24c
hard drive 2: 25c

doesnt even list the cpu.. wtf

Don't worry loads of people have trouble with speedfan reporting ridiculous temps for Q6600s. Try coretemp or one of the latest betas of speedfan.

In speed fan I have a sensor reporting 119C on AUX (whatever that is).

The 105C sounds like the processor's Tjunction, which AFAIK is one of the temps it throttles at.

ok these are the temps (by the way guys i dont know ambient since im in basement and there is no thermostat. its 20c upstairs so im guessing about 18.

here are the temps

TcaseMax: 100c
Core #1: 27c
Core #2: 27c
Core #3: 24
Core #4: 24

does that seem accurate..? seems too low to be real to me

is urs G0 stepping?? and what version of core temp do u have?? i have core temp beta 0.9.0.91

wtf i just realized it says as follows: Intel Xeon 2.4GHz (Clovertown)
2405.50MHz
LGA 771

that cant be right...

cpu-z says kentsfield LGA 775... wtf is going on lol...

**** i just got another BSOD... i downloaded the new core temp and it now displays the correct info. It also displays the same temps

what on earth is causing the BSOD??

k im going to run some prime 95 just to see even if my system is stable.. which test do i run? small FFT, in place large FFT, or blend??

Have you bothered to check your temps in BIOS yet? They should be relatively accurate.

I'd also take the MB out of the case, then check that your nice cooler is mounted properly.

Normal TS steps next... 1 stick RAM, GPU, then run a bit. HDD, run a bit. Prime95, run a LONG bit. Then re-check temps in BIOS.

You also need to disable reboot on bsod so you can really see why you are getting a bsod.
