Like the title says, I am wondering if a a slotket can throw off temp monitoring. I'm using MBM5, and temps are really off. Well, at least I hope they are. I'm swinging inbetween 50°c and 78°c under load. I've got an Asus P3V4X, with a celly 900@900, on a MSI 6905 Master slotket. It's got a cheapie HSF on it right now, but it normally cools better than the regular stock Intel HSF. It'll have to do till I can get a a better cooler, but my temps still seem way off. I've already tried reseating the HSF, and reaplying ASII, no change. I know that the ASII will only become fully thermally conductive after a few hours/days, but temps still seem too high for that to cause the high readings.
