About LinkBacksHow accurate are the readings from the built in probes under the cpu? I imagine it would be warmer under there? my barton 2500+ is currently being displayed as 53 degrees C (okay it is like 32 degrees outside!!!) but does that seem right?

What motherboard is this on? I am guessing as it is that high that it's taking it's reading from the diode. I have a XP1700+ @ 2.3ghz with 1.65v and that was idle at 47c today which is around 10c higher than it normally is.

Once you have seen it you will never be the same

8RDA3+... Yeah, it does seem worringly high... (with as3 and alpha 8045)... Don't really fancy re-doing the as3
I would say it's fine to be honest. The room temp does greatly raise the CPU temp and as long as it is stable, why worry.
What is your case cooling like?

yeah, i know i'm prolly being a bit paranoid but its newcase cooling is quite good, 4x 80mm fans (+2x psu fans) and its an ali case... case temp is apparently about 35-38 degrees.wouldn't say my room is the coolest of rooms either... Are those probes quite accurate?
If it's reading from the diode then they are as good a guide as you are going to get. The diode temp is more accurate than the socket temp.
You have a good cooler there and the case sounds well cooled as well. Wait until the temps drop again, around the 22c mark and then see what your temps are like. I am sure they will be fine.

cheers for your help!
Its that flimsy thermal probe that sits under the socket.. if i understand correctly, that would be the socket temp? and not the diode temp?
These are only intended as rough guides anyway. Look at it more of finding the temps where your CPU becomes unstable and then ensuring you stay well below that. Some mobos may get to 60'C before experiencing instability while others may only say 55'C with exactly the same setup. If you're stable then you're stable, don't worry about temps too much, use them as a guide as to how much hotter you run with that extra 0.1ghz or slightly higher voltage rather than comparing with diff mobos.
My system..
Under load (seti): Diode: 63C, Socket: 38C, Case:18C (Side of the case off and the deskfan blowing in there)
Idle: Diode 53C, Socket: 32C, Case: 18C
Damn this hot weather...

It's been lovely and cool here today.. Watercooled 1700 JIUHB DLT3C @2.2Ghz@1.65V running 40C idle, 45C load.
Can't wait for winter
i'm taking it that, that is a near silent system? I have a XP1700+ @2.3 1.65v and I had better temps than that on air today.Originally posted by Theo

Yeah, just one papst 4312MS 7V'd on the radiator. The rest is passive
