Halo!
I have one question. I purcahse 3 day a go P5Q and Quad 9400. I have problem with CPU temperature in PC Probe 2 (program is with motherboard) because is 125 degresse. But if i see in RealTemp all 4 core is normal? In Everest the CPU temperature is also 125 but every core seperatly is normal! Why the CPU temp is so high? No at all time is 125..time to time show about 40..but when show 125 and i go see in bios (i have last bios) is the same 125? Where is the problem?
And if somene tell me where is the sensor for motherboard temp, because also this in time to time show me abnormal high temp?
Sorry for my english, and if i ask stupid thinks.. but i dont have a lot experience and i have fear if somethings go wrong.


I try now Sensor Test in RealTemp and this is the results:

^ Your Core 0 and Core 1 seems to be stuck. Also try re seating your HSF.

^Nothing, if you can measure temps with a thermometer that would help. Other than that you can't fix the stuck cores. HOWEVER, read this guide and calibrate temps and you should be OK.

Geez Guy. This stuff is so technical but I have to grind it in. Please make great articles like this with a switch for Printable Version. PLEASE! Hank

I'm too stupid for this guide. However, my question has to do with SpeedFan....have they corrected the -15 degree CPU reading issue on newer versions. I was brought here by this link:

Sections listed seemed to be removed from guide. Which leads me to believe this is no longer an issue.

Sweet, Thanks!

Unfortunately I didn't see the truncation until after Google cache updated the page

Note 2: SpeedFan - Very flexible and configurable, SpeedFan is the preferred temperature monitoring utility because Tcase and Tjunction can be Calibrated. SpeedFan detects and labels thermal sensors according to various motherboard, chipset and super I/O chip configurations, so the label for Tcase can be CPU, Temp 1, Temp 2, or Temp 3. Even if Tcase is labeled as CPU, it is still necessary to confirm the identity of Tcase prior to performing Calibrations.


uhm.....can someone interpret this? I dont speak geek fluently enough to understand what this means. All I know is, is I have a "temp1" at 57C which is too hot I guess? Everything is good. My 4 cores are all at 0 or below...what is temp1??

that was a nice write up, was not aware you have to calibrate temps to more accurate. but it sure was draining reading this. too bad it can't be simplified any more into a step by step guide.

Are those LOAD temps Comp? Looks a bit too hot for my liking. Also what's up with the push/pull fan set up? It may be creating a vacuum effect?

Just paying tribute to the mighty temp guide. Has to be done a few times a year or the crops will wither and lambs will be born with two heads.

Thank you for your interest in the Core i7 and Core 2 Temperature Guide.
