Budget Gaming PC Build | Complete Rebuild + Temp Issues

[thebeetalls]

i have a foxconn motherboard(a7gm-s) and the "cpu" temp on most temp software is more or less stuck in the 38-42c range no matter what im doing. this happens in foxone and speedfan. i think thats the chipset temp or something. the only software that reads the temps right is amd overdrive, it reads the temp of each core separate. i have a saphire 4830, works great.

[Yoda8232]

It's supposedly a 790GX chipset problem according to Foxconn, but I don't trust them at all. Yeah all different software gets different readings but BIOS temps show 100%. Even with latest BIOS.

[putsipa]

use speedfan. i have used it from 4 years great program... try it

[orjan92]

yes i use that to, its great

[ashrocks87]

why does every gmer thats posting on youtube sounds like fat people? im not trying to be mean here so im sorry but its just like that. the other gamer too speaks slow

[trent1234108]

temps arent too good to be true, u got it for real, all i have on mine is the normal $7 amd fan, runs 6 degreez celcius at normal use

[beefdog88]

Brisbane cores usually have faulty temp censors

[Drifter2080]

didnt it work before

[Yoda8232]

Could you be more specific?

[Drifter2080]

like on your other video when it just said 40

[Yoda8232]

If you actually read the description or watch the video I'm getting different readings.

[Drifter2080]

no i watched the vid but just never mind this whole thing

[m0ore4ustin391]

K well ts pretty obvious that your BIOS is reading wrong because at 255C your cpu would literally be on fire. But the other program you used sounds wrong to because its seem a bit to cool. Did you over clock your CPU or did it come factory over clocked?

[Yoda8232]

I OC'ed it myself, and of course I know that it's wrong the 255 degree temperature.

[brom229]

what was the overall cost?

[Yoda8232]

$599.78 CDN with tax and wireless N adapter.

[Drifter2080]

what graphics card do u have

[Yoda8232]

Onboard for now, saving for a HD 4830 most likely. Well get a better video if I get the job I'm trying to get, thus new PSU + better video card maybe even 4870. 0_o

[Drifter2080]

i finished my build last weak a nd had no probs

[Yoda8232]

What's the specs?

[TheHaloMan2009]

What size fans and where did u get them?

[Yoda8232]

1 x 80mm, green LED.

All Xion brand.

[Drifter2080]

[Yoda8232]

Nice PC man, great PSU too.

[Drifter2080]

thanks

[MN12BIRD]

Nice system other than the temp issue. I can't say I know what it is but I wonder if the CPU has a bad sensor in it? Flash the BIOS to the latest? Oh and the 4830 ain't bad for the price I was surprised to see how cheap they are.

[Yoda8232]

BIOS is the latest version. Maybe the CPU does have a bad sensor. :'(

Yeah they are really cheap.

[shahunter89]

maybe its ur mobo that dont work i had one that show my pc temp at 1c all the time LOL ,

[Yoda8232]

My motherboard is a brand new...

All my other temps are fine it's not the mobo lol.

[joshua12345676]

all i can say if you haven't done already is to try downloading all temp reading programs. coretemp(my fave), nxsensor, speedfan, everest, hwmonitor. etc. and find one that possibly gives correct temps. because those are just whack.

[Yoda8232]

Woah I tried CoreTemp and it said my CPU was a 1.8 GHz, temps are more realistic at 25 to 30 idling.

[joshua12345676]

try to disable cool n quiet? that might be throttling it back when idle to 1.8ghz. and yeah with your cooler 25 to 30 idle is a fair temp.

[Yoda8232]

It's wrong lol, all my other programs are different.

That's why I said the temps are more realistic haha. :P

[joshua12345676]

did you try to disable cool n quiet, still?

[highrollerr21]

what os do u have ??

[Yoda8232]

Windows XP, with the Zune skin.

[betokillsall]

Are you gonna get a better monitor?

[Yoda8232]

Eventually performance before show for me.

Most likely when I get a job, also my monitor will be bigger so I'll need more juice too pump it out at those big resoultions. I'm looking at minimum 19" 1440 x 900.
