SmartGuardian

Hey guys,
I was wondering if Smart Guardian is an accurate program. Because currently, it says that my cpu temp = 70 degrees C. But in the bios, the cpu core temp is 37 degrees celsius. Also, the voltages are red as well. Thanks in advance!

well if it is saying 70 C and your bios is 37 C then it must not be accurate

Works great for me. I used to use Speedfan but I've found Smart Guardian to be more useful in my case.

ahhh....so what does this mean? should i still keep on pushing the oc'n or should i just stop...?

 

[HeavenZKnight]

well, speedfan and smart guardian said ~32 degrees C for like 5 seconds, then both changed to ~71 degrees all of a sudden. What does this mean? Also, there's a slight high pitched noise coming from the mobo/cpu, does that mean that it's being fried....?

Ya my buddy has this.. if you wait about 30 seconds after everything loads it fixes itself. I built a PC for my buddy with a DFI and i couldnt figure out why it was doing that so i checked in bios and his temp was 28C. then i rebooted and looked and smart guardian said it was 75C then after about 30 seconds or so i guess it slapped itself and figured out its actually about 32C Its not dangerous its just something that happenes with most Smart guardian users

I've never had this issue, what bios version are you using?

i've never seen that either on any of the 6 dfi boards i've used.

i think the bios is 6.7, or the newest one. It's weird because when I run Smartfan first, it says that the cpu temp = ~32. But when I run Smart Guardian and it says that it's 71, Smartfan goes up to 71 right afterwards. Oh yeah, anyone have any idea on that small high pitched noise?
