hello.. i got a barton athlon xp 2800 (2.08 Ghz) on Asus A7n8x deluxw
previously i used the fan i used for my t-bird 900. It was an aluminium based hsf.
the temperature in bios reached abt 64C, but Asus probe states that the cpu temp is only around 54C
now i used copper based cooler master aero 7+
the temp at bios is now only 32C, which strangely is below the motherboard temp (34C)
however asus probe states that the cpu temp is 47C
which one should i believe?
how come,
with the al based hsf the bios temp is 10C higher than asus probe but
with the cu based hsf the bios temp is 15C lower than the asus probe?
should i be happy or be worry?
what is the max allowable temp of barton?
btw, ambient temp is 28C, and the pc never experience any crash due to thermal problem.
