AMD 960T CPU TEMP Questions

Last response: in CPUs
Share

As stated in the title above my cpu is an AMD Athlon II x4 960T Black Edition. Currently it is not overclocked and its running with the stock fan. My questions are: Is Core Temp accurate? If so why does my bios show my CPU temp as 30-43 degrees celcius? Also bios has it set up to where the fan wont kick up to max speed unless the CPU reaches 70 degrees celcius is that normal? If not should I change it to where it will kick the fan to max speed at a lower degree or what? Core Temp reads my cpu at being 20-30 degrees celcius. What im wondering is if its doing a cumulative readout and the bios is doing a specific core temp or what? Thank you in advance for any assistance with this matter?

You definitely want max fan speed before 60C; 55C would be a good place to set it to be 100%.

BIOS should be reading core temps fairly accurately, and those sound fairly normal with the stock fan.

In your Profile/Forum Options/Signature. But I notice sometimes it disappears and I have to do it again.
