Let's try this post again ~ in mid post the screen jumped to "Thank You for Logging in", strange, happens when I tried to enter the degree sign° (which now is working??)
Anyway, I was expressing my doubts about the validity of HW Monitor. I had tried to run HW and Prime95 all afternoon, but when I returned to the PC it had gone to sleep and when I went back to it, both HW and Prime85 had "not responding" messages.
I checked the log and was concerned as it showed a max temp of 127° C.
But when I reset HW Monitor with no CPU load, it gave a very high reading even though ASUS AiSuite monitor reported normal temps.
I started HW Monitor and then ran a Win8 CPU test App (Speed Test Pro). It is a short test and reports on the Hash MB's. During the test I watched HW Monitor, temps rose a little as expected then there was a blimp, and the max posted the same 127° C for a split second and then back to the normal range. So I have my doubts about this 127° C max. I also am not sure what is being measured by the TMPIN3 or AUXTIN, but they always report very high temps.
Will try again but is there another temperature monitoring program?
