i'm testing a e7200 recently bought. oc to 3.6 or so.

here's the problem, running Linpack torture tests.

On load:
speedfan 4.35 = 70C
Realtemp 2.70 = 60C

so which is correct?

CPU is e7200 M0
S-Spec: SLAVN
FPO/Batch: 3827A288
Pack date:08/19/08
Made in Costa Rica

Don't use speedfan. Use real temp or core temp. The latest version of real temp is 2.75 and the latest version of core temp is 0.99.3.

Tjunc of the newest speedfan beta is 105, correct tjunc is 100, you need to manually input a -5 offset in the advanced options.

Thanks guys looks like I'll just stick to realtemp or just use 100-Delta.

Also if this is the case, then Realtemp need 5C more and speedfan needs 5C less.

Realtemp (newest) and coretemp (newest) give me the same temp and every says that they are now correct with the newest Tjunc values that intel released at IDC in Sept.
