111 Celcius??

[manoots]

Was running Intel Burn Test along with LinX to stress system stability and help thermal paste set quicker when i noticed this strange number.

TMPIN0= 111 degrees Celsius!

I'll post a pic with the read outs. Max temperature is 60c degrees with an ambient of 20c.

I was hoping it is just a bad read out from a bad sensor or maybe a bios issue.

At 4.4Ghz with 1.31Vcore with LLC enabled. System is stable except for that weird temperature. I dont even know what it does. Every place i tried searching says TMPIN0 does something different so I'm clueless right now.

Will be reseating the cooler again in a couple of minutes. Antec 620 with ICD7 paste. Keeps getting better with every application but last one was worse. Max temps before were 55-56 degrees, now its up to 60 so its in need of an adjustment.

Please let me know what this temperature means and why its up so high.

Thanks

Install EasyRune and you may find what TMPIN0 is.
Why should you be worries if Intel temp sensors are reporting max 60c?

Re: 111 Celcius??

Should be Motherboard temp/ South bridge temp.

+1 install Easy Tune6. I have had issues with Hardware Monitor giving false glitches in voltage on the 12v+, 5v+ 3v+. Havent seen glitches in temps but with these new sandy bridge cpus and motherboards with all their problems, who know. Make sure you have the latest version of both software, Easy tune 6 and Hardware monitor.

If you wanna drop tmp2 and you have a old 80mm fan laying around plug that in and have it sit on your gpu blowing air onto the heat sink on the motherboard.

I have 4 120mm fans already hooked up. 2 top exhaust, 1 rear exhaust, 1 front intake.. plus 2 120mm cooler master blade masters push/pull on the radiator pulling in from front of case. the radiator is cold to the touch so i dont think thats making any negative effect on the temperatures.

found the TMPIN0 to be system temperature according to ET6. really weird. I dont think the temperatures are right at all. 111C wouldnt melt the board?

Thats good. I just noticed the temp reading on tmp2 max temp was 50c. You can bring this down by doing what i said above. This will blow air directly onto the sensor and cool down the part that is under the heat sink. Leaving it hit 50c is fine.

does ET6 show 111c also? if not then its not a problem.

Re: 111 Celcius??

Compare with easytune or AIDA64 to be sure, looks to me like it is motherboard sensor (Right above PCIE Slots on PCB near NB)



Get AIDA64 here

Re: 111 Celcius??

Thanks for the help everyone. I'm trying to recreate the temperature as close as possible by running LinX and IBT at the same time as what was running at the time when I saw those temps. I cannot recreate them. I'm running Linx, IBT and doing a whole bunch of other stuff. I'll post a pic.

It has gone up 1C after i took the picture. Just uploaded picture and took another look at monitors, It went up another degree to 37C


*Edit* Forgot to mention, shortly after that my computer froze. I rebooted and tried to go into bios but it wouldnt let me. It tried to load windows but froze there too. Forced a reboot and then it got stuck on the GB logo screen. Had to clear cmos. I'm guessing SB and P67 isnt prime time yet :(

Re: 111 Celcius??

Temps all look fine above, it was probably a glitch before?

[manoots]

Re: 111 Celcius??

Yeah, it had to be a glitch. I'll keep a close eye on all temps and not just cpu from now on lol. Worst case scenario I'll pick up a water cooling system.

[Lsdmeasap]

Re: 111 Celcius??

It's just all new software and boards, so it will take a while for everything to get caught up so there are less glitches.

Didn't you have a massive overclock the other day that wasn't real too?

[manoots]

Re: 111 Celcius??

Haha yeah. Core speed was 26000MHz and a FSB of 600+... it was great!
Hopefully new bios updates will fix some problems along with software monitoring glitches.

Re: 111 Celcius??

Haha, ya I thought that was you with Bclk of 600+ on P67 board!!

You need to do that again and get it validated, and then tell me how to reproduce it!

Re: 111 Celcius??

I want to show you guys an update on the CPU temperatures. I reseated the cooler and this time tightened it down really tight. Not so tight where you need a power drill to remove it lol, but tight.

Temps dropped A LOT!

Had AC on before because it was way too hot in my room. 85 degrees F (32.2C).

Linx with at that temp ran 68 degrees C.

-Reseated cooler

Added extra paste this time to fill in imperfections noticed on copper plate

Temps are as shown:

Load: 54
Idle: 21
Ambient with AC on :21.1C

OC : 4.4 @ 1.32v

***Also havent had a situation with motherboard temps yet. So thats a plus

Re: 111 Celcius??

good to see everything is playing nicely now. Also good temps. I was sure the temp problem was a software glitch.

You should use imageshack.us or another website to host pics and dont resize them. images are very hard to read.

Thanks.
Sorry, ill fix it now :)

Side note, temps keep improving now. max temp is 50. It touches it slightly then drops to 49 steady under load.

I want to point out, I had to do the twist while applying the block on the cpu. Made a huge improvement. Also glad the motherboard temps arent peaking to 111 degrees anymore. What would of caused that, Bios, software?
