CPU Temp.

[SLK001]

Hardware monitor AMD Athlon II X4 630
Temperature 0 23°C (73°F) [0xB9] (Core #0)
Temperature 1 23°C (73°F) [0xB9] (Core #1)
Temperature 2 23°C (73°F) [0xB8] (Core #2)
Temperature 3 23°C (73°F) [0xB8] (Core #3)

Hardware monitor NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260
Temperature 0 43°C (109°F) (GPU Core)

Hardware monitor SAMSUNG SP2004C
Temperature 0 27°C (80°F) [0x1B] (Assembly)
Temperature 2 27°C (80°F) [0x1B] (Air Flow)

Your CPU monitor isn't working properly. The four cores will almost never read the same value. They should read closer to what the GTX 260 is reading. I take it that AMD doesn't have the temp sensing diodes on the CPU chips. The temp sensor for the CPU must be on the MB - and poorly placed, at that.

You always have the PRTSCRN key on the keyboard. That's all I ever use. Then Open 'Paint' and 'Paste' it there, edit and save as JPEG to upload to our site.

But those temps look good. I haven't found two monitoring programs that give the same readings, but I go by the temp difference between no load and full load to determine if the cooling is working correctly.

I will keep that in mind. I can't believe I've never used that key before Thanks!

Also very handy, use Alt - PrnScrn to capture only current active window.

Here's a screen shot after I just booted. The cores don't always all stay the same, they do some times though, they all tend to go up and down. Both programs are reading very close to the same temps.

Thanks for the tips
