(Unless he's using a pelt, or has a heater in the case.... which I doubt somehow.) Actually, some boards have the system sensor where it can be hotter than the CPU sensor. The ASrock K7S8X series is one such board. I think the system sensor is actually on the northbridge although I didn't check for sure. At idle, running Athcool, the cpu temp is about 1-2C lower than the reported system temp. Under load that changes of course with the cpu temp going 10C over system temp. But I would agree with you if the system had an open sensor not close to something hot. Fair point. If you site the case sensor next to another source of heat, then its possible. (I did say "unless you have heater in the case".) The simple law of thermodynamics is that heat flows fom hot things to cooler things. You can't have something *being* heated, hotter than the thing heating it. Its just plain impossible. As an aside, what complete *stupid* places manufactures put the system temp thermistors in. On the Abit nf7-s its right under the CPU hs!!!! How nutty is that? Not so much the system temperature, more the "CPU Exhaust Temperature".

I've been trying to follow discussions about this subject because the same is happening to my pc. On idle it's at 39C CPU and 48C or above PWM temp. On full load the system temp. is still 10 degrees (or more) hotter than the CPU. I've been building PC's for a few years now and this is the first I've seen something like this. If I leave it running like this with the sys. temp +10 hotter than the CPU, will there be any damage? It is stable using prime 95 and SiS. Here's my rig: Abit KV-7 AMD Athlon XP 1800 T-bred @ 2.31 GHz (JIUHB-DLT3C) 1.75 Volts 11.5 X 197 FSB 512 mb Corsair PC 3200 Asus TD 9520 Vid Card Creative SB Live 5.1 80 GB Maxtor HD 52X CD-Rom On Thu, 18 Dec 2003 17:46:29 -0500, EzAk wrote: changed both back fans to out front to in and side on temps change but no diffrents the case is still hotter than the cpu. I had this same setup with a valcano 9 and didnt have this problem. Is it posible that my cooler for the cpu is cooling the cpu and forcing the heat from the cpu into the case which is why the case is hotter than the cpu? i know its far feched but i dont know what else i could be. I just read this thread. Although nobody at Abit seems to want to admit it, the cpu and systems readings are reversed on several boards, including the Abit KD7 which I have. I just accepted the fact that they are reversed and monitor it accordingly. Look at the hotter temperature of the two and assign it to the cpu. My overclocked 2100+ AMD runs at 2287 with a idle temperatures of 39 and 33. Hardware monitor shows the system at 39 and the cpu at 33. obviously, they are reversed. Dennis |

The following is a copy of the SiSandra CPU/BIOS info as of five minutes ago. Irrelevant stuff left intact. I have 4 comments. 1. Your CPU temp shows 20C, not 15C as you originally said 2. Where is your system temp, and why is it not reported? 3. Like I said in the first place "Something is seriously wrong with your sensors". What Sandra reports is only coming from your mis-calibrated sensors. Sandra doesn't "verify" anything. If the sensors are miscalibrated, then Sandra gets the information wrong too. 4. Everything below is irrelevant as "proof", because you could type in anything you like anyway. Having said all that, I am not saying I don't believe *you*. I just don't believe your sensors, that's all. I reckon they are under-reading by about 10C. 30C at idle is perhaps more like it.

Several lines above your post he says that his CPU temp at 6am was 15°, at time of writing 19°. -- ~misfit~ Uhh dude why don't you learn to *think*. I questioned his 15C comment. So he replies with "evidence" showing 20C. WTF use is that? Chip. |

You went off in a big rant about how difficult it would be to 'maintain a CPU temp of 15°C', basically saying he was a liar, yet he never claimed he 'maintained' that temp, only that, at 6am on the morning in question, his CPU registered 15°C. He said that later in the day his CPU temp regisetered 19°C and his posted data dump from sandra is very close to that. Get a hobby Chip.

But the air coming off the heatsink cannot be hotter than the cpu (otherwise it would heat the cpu not cool it). The cpu must always be hotter than the case air temp (unless your water or Refrigeration cooling or such like) That is, of course, quite true. What in the world makes people think that "system temp" is necessarily the same as case air temp is another matter. |

[snip] You went off in a big rant about how difficult it would be to 'maintain a CPU temp of 15°C', basically saying he was a liar, yet he never claimed he 'maintained' that temp, only that, at 6am on the morning in question, his CPU registered 15°C. I never called him a liar, nor even hinted at it. I said in my original post that his sensors are wrong (which they are). In my next post, I even emphasised the fact "Having said all that, I am not saying I don't believe you". Calling him a liar never came into it. He said that later in the day his CPU temp regisetered 19°C and his posted data dump from sandra is very close to that. 15? 19? It makes no difference. 19C is still impossible on air, unless you sit outside in Iceland in the winter. Get a hobby Chip. One other than brow-beating people who are only asking for help. What "asking for help"? I don't see SunnyB asking for any help, do you? Just jumped in telling everyone how wonderfully low his temps are. And I merely pointed out to him that his sensors are not accurate. Any anyway, what the feck has it got to do with you. First you jump in with your "learn to read" offensive ********. And now this. I wonder why I don't feel a need to heed your "advice". Chip. |

Hey listen, peace. Sorry about my last post - I was in a really sh*tty
mood. No excuse. Have a Happy Christmas and try not to let miserable idiots like me get you down ;-) Chip |
