I just built a computer:
p5e deluxe
q9550
4gig ocz 1066
WD 250 HDD
lite-on dvd-rw
Soon as I booted up, the cpu was unknown so I will have to update bio's for sure, but here is my question. The temp reading right now is amazingly high in bios/speedfan but in coretemp it seems normal. I double checked my seating and thermal paste and the heatpipes on the cpu cooler are ice cold. Should I be worried or will the bio's update accurately show the CPU temp since it will be able to detect which cpu its running? Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.
