Please have a look at the attached picture of Speedfan.

(I know that I have to add 15 degrees to the core temperatures due to the tJunc of my proc being 100) That's not the problem.

Can anyone tell me what on earth is running at 108 degrees centigrade inside there?:twitch:

That's a bug in speedfan I get it all the time, just an error reading the temperature probe or something... I dunno what AUX is supposed to be (motherboard temp?) but its always at 123C or something for me...

I was guessing my motherboard temperature was system, and that's a reasonable 35 degrees.
Sooo, you really sure it's just a bug?

On some boards, that temp sensor is a "dead" one, if it always marks the same don't worry about it ... i also have a TMPIN3 (or AUX one) .. normally is 42-44ºC, when doing stuff at 100% load reaches 127ºC, i supposed it was the northbridge and i was worried about it ... but i touched the heatpipes and if that were at 127ºC i should burn my fingers ... and i didn't, still marking the same when doing stuff ... but i won't worry cause it's obvious it's not a good reading of that sensor, 127ºC should heat all the MoBo or the surroundings ... and it's not that hot never ... so don't worry. Most sure is a dead sensor that always marks the same, i've read it on other pages too :)

Well something's certainly whacky. The 'bad' news is that it does change. It varies between 102 - 108.

Then I started TAT to see what happens under load, and it went down...:confused: the higher my cpu temperature the lower it went. And I mean really down it jumped from 106 to 58...55... and reached 48 and remained in that area for the duration of the TAT.

After stopping TAT it goes up to over 100 degrees again.

So, there is some sensor somewhere. But it makes no sense for something to cool down the more the pc is loaded isn't it? :wtf:

For me works the opposite way, and certainly it's not meant to cool while you're forcing the stuff ... so i'm pretty sure it's a big sensor bug or a sensor that gets the "sum" readings of other ones, in almost all ASUS MoBo's there is an issue like that, cause we have different mobo's and processors and that issue is there ... btw, i noticed that temp sensor when i plug any USB devices that requires power, bumps 10ºC or 15ºC more ... try it and see if also goes down as when you're working hard with the CPU, and tell me please, i will worry a bit less :laugh:

It's definately a bug. On my Gigabyte DS3 board, Speedfan read the AUX as 146c...LOL. Not a chance in hell that anything in my system could be running that hot.

Speedfan is notorious for a lot of things like off-beat readings, system-hangups, etc. If I were to trust it, my northbridge is on a polar expedition at -20 C.

He's true, any electrical device working more than 100ºC constantly should ruin the plastics of the MoBo.

Why not just go with Asus Probe....seems with speedfan even the coretemps dont even come close to TAT's 60*c.

btw, i noticed that temp sensor when i plug any USB devices that requires power, bumps 10ºC or 15ºC more ... try it and see if also goes down as when you're working hard with the CPU, and tell me please, i will worry a bit less :laugh:

Bingo... plugging in my photo-camera into USB makes that temp drop to 86 deg then to 55 deg...

Nice. My camera keeps my pc cool! :laugh:

I don't 'go' with Speedfan actually. I use it just for the S.M.A.R.T. function. I was just very curious what that temperature might be representing, since all the other temperatures in my case show clearly what they're reading, even though erroneous. (Btw Asus Probe gives me wrong core temperatures to, I only use coretemp 0.95 for my cores)

speed fan detects my 250gig sata drive as 200ºC lol ok....but ya its a big bug i mean if you think of it...if your NB or w/e thats supposed to be reading was really at 14ºC your computer would fail after about an hour...or your heatsink would start to glow..one or the other...but regardless if your HS started to glow im pretty sure your pc would fail right after regardless.

You can get rid of them...



You can also rename each sensor. Click it, and then again and it will let you edit the names.

I've found on some boards that the AUX reading is typically a temp sensor that wasn't implimented on the board, but BIOS still contains some reference to it, hence why it's displayed. I've never seen the AUX reading to look anywhere near correct, and other programs like Everest will still display the same sensor, but usually with a completely different reading that's still incorrect.

my older rig the soltek in my spec list, had 2 phantom temps hehe, one of them was always above 100c the other was extremely negative and fluctuated alot. good ol speedfan. now my friend c4pta1ntr1ps had a pos 50 dollar board that had about 5 fantom temps it was hilarious.

On my current board my AUX reads like -9C or something like that, before that my last MB had an AUX that read 123C...I wouldn't worry too much about it if there's no description for it, just something some programs detect that's not actually reading or sending a value that should be read. As long as CPU, MEM, GPU, NB, MB, PWM temps are fine, then for the most part I'm content!

On a side note, I have used SF for... years... Now, and have never had ANY problems what so ever with it. It does try to read a device on my server (Inspiron 6000), but other than that, all ok.

any better ones around?
