CPU temp

[Clown]

I was wondering thru my bios i saw the cpu temp was on 51* but i checked out the temp at SiSoft Sandra it was only about 31* which is the accurate one?

BIOS is usually correct, sisoft may be reading wrongly - although that temp seems high for a PIII in BIOS as it wouldnt even be under full load.......

did it happen once or always? and was it after a cold boot or a reboot?

Yeah every time i boot up cause its like weird, from 31* on windows to 51* on Bios. I was just confused but i think that the Mobo was more accurate. Do you think so.. but if the bios was saying the truth will my cpu stand that heat?
