Hello, Just built my own PC and am having some issues with it shutting off by itself.....I figured it was heat related so I installed " CPUID Hardware Monitor" and noticed that TMPIN1 was maxed out at 106 C or 222 F...that's crazy...does anyone know what TMPIN1 is or how to fix the problem?
 
Without knowing your mobo, no. But 99% of the time it is reading a sensor that is not actually a temp sensor. You should only trust the cpu and gpu temps. For other temps use the software that came with your mobo. If the cpu and gpu temps are fine, my guess would be a psu issue.

I believe TMPIN1 is your CPU. Those Temps are very High. Can you tell me what Thermal Paste you are using at the moment ?
Download SPEEDFAN, or SPECCY and post back the Temps you see on there. Don't forget to Post your PC Specs on here too.

Please check the following :
1.Make sure you Heat Sink fan is actually Spinning when the PC is Turned ON
2. Make sure your Heat Sink is mounted and Fastened properly
3. Make sure you are using the correct type and Amount of Thermal paste
