First, the idle temp for my CPU (23) is usually 1 to 2 degrees below the ambient room temp (25). Since that is obviosly wrong, is there a way to get more acurate temp readings?
Second, the load temp is WAY higher than load. After running prime95 for an hour CPU temp was at 48. 25 degrees seems to be a huge diffference between idle/load.
Also, when I run prime95, I only get 50% cpu usage (I assume because of hyperthreading). How can I get it to use all 100%. I tried opening two prime95 windows at once, but it won't let me.
I have a 2.8C with stock hsf on a GA-8IPE1000 pro motherboard, and I'm using a program that came with it (easytune4) to detect the temperature.
One last thing, the stock intel an is reading 2300 rpm idle and 2600 rpm load. That doesn't seem very fast to me. Is that normal for their stock fans? Would getting a better fan help significantly reduce temps?
