Right I have worked out that my Tempture sensor is broken because after running Prime 95 for 30 min it says the temp is 34C. When I boot the PC and go into the bios it's 32 - 35C. I'm using the Noctua d14 but still 34C while running a stress test it was to low.

So if I can't tell what the correct temp is can the PC? Because it it says it's 34C and really it's 70C then thats a problem because the fans should be spinning at 100% at 50C. (Not sure if that makes sense)

I need someone to help me, what do I need to do in order to get this sensor working because I really want to overclock the AMD Phenom II x6 to 4.2GHZ but I can't with a dodgy sensor...

Thanks for any tips :)
