My board has a thermistor inside of the CPU socket, and a couple others elsewhere - not sure where. The temp readings I get are as follows -

CPU - 102 on average
Sensor 1 - 72
Sensor 2 - 78

Obviously the last two are from the case somewhere, but my question is this - how accurate is the CPU reading? If it is fairly accurate for what it is measuring, how much hotter is my CPU core? I've got a T-bird 1 GHz, stock voltage, with a FOP-38.

Hey,

What mb are you using? and what bios? It could be anywhere from close to off by a lot.
