Extreme Temps : MAlfunction?

[angaddev]

I just downloaded HW Monitor and was shocked to see one of my temps was 128C! I think it is probably a glitch since my computer is running fine, but here si a pic anyway.

At that temperature something in your pc has to be burned allready. Maybe its a bug from HW Monitor.That AUXTIN temp in my pc is 35C.

If you google "hw monitor auxtin", you get a lot of hits, many with questions similar to yours. Here is one of them:

Scroll down to the first June 15 post.

I'd say that HW Monitor is reporting an error.

^My guess too - The temps sensor has either malfunctioned or has a bad solder joint or was not installed at all. With every thing else looking good - I would not worry about it.
