i prefer something like a probe or doc5 unit....i like the idea of looking at my case to read my temps and not having to open a progie. plus when im playing an intense game i can scan over my temps while playing. a must for me.

This is gonna sound dumb but, I don't know what the temps represent.
I have 22C, 34C, and 30C but I don't know whats what.


Edit: Ok the middle is CPU, the other 2 may be case and memory but I dunno.

22C is your case im sure....34C is your CPU and 30C would be the memory..if i were to guess. those temps are very good, nothing to worry about. well i dont know if 30C is good for memory, ive never looked at memory temps. but the CPU and SYSTEM temps are good. what CPU are u running?

just so u know...your CPU is running at 34 degrees C and that amounts to 93.2 degrees F. which in any case is good.

I'm running a 1ghz Tbird with Axia stepping. I have an Alpha Pal 6035 with a 6800rpm Delta. I ranning 3dMark2001 with T&L Software mode at 1025x768x32 4xAA Triple buffer 24bit-Z while playing MP3s and the CPU temp shot up to 48C. It took about 8 mins to come back down to 34C. Should I have the fan blowing air on the heatsink or have it sucking air through and off the heatsink? Right now its blowing.
Almost forgot, neither of the other temps changed. There is another temp reading I can get but its only 11C
