Don't P4s use a thermal diode?Originally posted by: Nebor
Idles at 53C, load at 73C. This is a p4 3ghz at stock speed. I've concluded that my motherboard just makes sh!t up. After checking actual temps I find the idle temp to be 10C high, the case temp to be 10C high, and the load temp to be 15C high.
If you're reading from the diode, then the temps are absolutely correct.
I wish AMD would let us read from the thermal diode. It's stupid that everybody was so alarmed at the "high" temps of the core. Of course it's going to be higher! The way we currently read temps, with the thermisistor under the CPU package, is quite simply retarded.
Nah, I'm reading from the abit EQ program. The diode is under my Zalman 7000Cu, so it'd be hard to read while the computer's running.
WTF j00 talkin' 'bout?

I think it'd hurt my CPU if I took the heatsink off while it was running dude!
