Ok so umm it's been a year now..
any updates? My coretemp says 28/29 for both cores and this is on a P5E with a XIgmatek S183 or whatever
so these temps legit?
Do you have latest RealTemp? Try a CPU Cool Down Test to see how bad your sensors are stuck.My realtemp says 35C for both cores and coretemp says 40C for both cores.
Agree. That's their purpose, to trigger throttle or thermal shutdown, so they became more accurate with higher temperatures.I don't trust the thermal sensors. I think they're just good to use to see how much your temps rise from load.
My realtemp says 35C for both cores and coretemp says 40C for both cores. The sensors are stuck at that and the only way I can get the temp to change is if I run the IntelBurnTest. Prime95 and SuperPi wouldn't make the temps budge.

What kind of cooling are you using anyway?
I'm using a Xigmatek HDT-S183 with a bolt thru kit, and the CPU is stock..
ok so nothing was released to address the sensor issue? Damn that sucks ...
I want to oc my CPU to 4 ghz, so if there is no way to correctly monitor the temperature, then what can I do? The previous owner told me it can handle 4ghz, so should I go ahead and just oc it?
I was actually doing that just before. I ran the CPU Cool Down test and here's what it gives me... (what now? Do I just deal with it or is there a way to fix it...)Do you have latest RealTemp? Try a CPU Cool Down Test to see how bad your sensors are stuck.

Unfortunately nothing to do, just get used to deal with it.what now? Do I just deal with it or is there a way to fix it...
What are safe voltage for E0 steppings nowadays? I'm on water...
It's not a matter of stepping, but rather architecture. 65nm chips are 1.5v and 45nm are, depending on your outlook, either 1.3625(Conservative), 1.4v(Midrange), or 1.45v(Max voltage).
I personally like to stay under 1.3625v and I am using water as well. In my somewhat limited experience, I find that the extra voltage vs actual gains makes it so not worth it to all out crank the voltage in most cases.
I don't think the software is wrong, I think it's the chips. My BIOS reads 24C, once I get into Windows I'm looking at 38C-39C and a high of 51C on load.
