I just upgraded from my KT600 motherboard to a DFI LanParty. On the old KT600, MBM5 gave me 2 temp readings. "System" and "CPU" .... with the new DFI motherboard MBM5 is giving me 3 temps. And it's sort of scaring me now.
I have a "socket" a "diode" and a "system". The problem is, the "diode" is reading at like 48c at IDLE. This is rediculiously high for a 2500+ barton running at stock /w stock voltage and a SLK900. However, the "socket" temps seem to fit with what everyone else reports for temps. Idle's at 39c and goes up to about 48c under load. I noticed on my other mobo the barton ran a little hot but I ran it with a Volcano 11 .. the slk900 is new with the lanparty board.
My concern is, what do people typically refer to when taking about their temps? The socket temp? The diode temp? I know that the diode temp is "on the chip" , but is that what typically people report for temps?
Anyone with a DFI motherboard, could ya post your diode / socket temps if you are using air cooling?
BLEH!
