I have an epox 8k3a+, a t-bred 1700+ at 1,75 volts runnig at about 2,0Ghz. its watercooled but i was just wondering are the tempratures okay. bios and mbm5 both show 42 C idle. But where are those temps measured from? socket or prosessor diode? does bios version make a difference? i read that the 8k3a+ isn't showing tempratures right, but didn't quite understand in which way they are wrong. please help me!

t-bred temps on ep-8k3a+

i hope your right about the incorrect readings and am hoping they are reading high. Just got my 8k3a+ and XP2500+ Barton up and running and with a thermalright SLK-900u and a Panaflo 46.9CFM fan am reading temps at 44-47 C idle and 50 C at load, all at default settings. I was hoping for much lower temps.

for watercooling thats kinda high, my tbred is at 2.36 with an slk-800a, and a tornado on low (2900 cfm) im getting around 39 idle, and 42-43 load. id say reseat the waterblock or something...or update the bios to make sure its not reading wrong.

There is a Beta bios dated 4/14/03 ( bios 3414) that fixes the tamp problem on some of the boards.
Before I was running bios 2815 and my temps were 64 idle and 69 load. Now with the new Bios my temps are 50 idle and 53 load. I have an SK-6 HS but a crappy fan

It's an issue with the 8k3a's on-die sensor reading and the Tbreds..
They read 10-12 degrees too high..
