Wrong temperature reading?

Hello,

I have just built a workstation on Asus P8B WS motherboard, with Intel chipset C206 and Xeon E3-1280 processor.

Not only does not Speccy recognize Xeon (says Core i7), but reports temperatures significantly different to those detected by utility provided with motherboard. See attached screen capture.

How does SpeedFan temperature readings compare against Speecy and your mobo tools??

CoreTemp reports +/-2 degrees the same as Speccy.

I had SpeedFan on my old computer and did not like it, do not want to install it on the new one

For me, Speccy always agrees with CoreTemp, SpeedFan, and Open Hardware Monitor.

Thanks, we're looking into this :)

Hi!

I seem to have the same problem (see attached image)

My motherboard is an ASUS P8H67-M EVO, BIOS 1850

I can MP you my .speccy is you want.

Thank you in advance!

How does your temperature readings look when Speccy runs straight after starting your computer from cold??

MB temp incorrectly recorded as 128 °C with new speccy DL'd today.

I've got the same problem (and a P67 chipset, like Caliban). Mine is reading ~124C right after booting up, while the BIOS and Asus' AI Suite report ~26C.

I have the same problem. Just built my new rig with the latest bios. Temp shows up as 128C. MB monitoring tool is showing temps in the 20's.

This MB have 12 on board sensors, the only thing I can think of is that it is someone combining all of them?

I will PM some of these users

Previously posted on another thread.....

I installed Speccy 1.13.276 on my new system with a BiostarTA75M motherboard, XP3 32 bit,. It is a wonderful tool but the temperature readings for CPU, System, and Video are in the 30s and 40s F which of course is impossible. The Cpu fan speed shows 13 rpm and that is way wrong. The 12V and 5V readings are also wrong. These readings are OK in BIOS. I would really like to have these features working in Speccy.

Update

I just updated to Speccy 1.14.288 and it is no better, maybe worse. Temperature readings are way below ambient, fan speed is way below actual.

Speccy 1.13.276 reports wrong information about my hard disks (ATA instead of SATA - RPM/buffer size wrong) while Defraggler seems to get it right?

I'm on an older system Win7 64-bit, GA-M56S-S3 (Socket M2) with nForce 560 chipset. Four SATA drives are connected to the 4 SATA ports.

Remark re Defraggler info under Health tab:

- on older drives (SATA150 & SATA-300) buffer size is always reported (while showing up incorrectly in Speccy)

- rotation speed shows 'unsupported' on all drives (while showing up incorrectly in Speccy)

- on my new drive neither (SATA-600) rotation speed nor buffer size is supported.

I haven't yet checked what the BIOS says during boot...

Edit: sorry should have posted this under new threas.

Some considerable time has gone by now........Are there any fixes on this issue?

Have you tried the latest version yet?

Yes, still no help. Ambient at the moment is 72F. Speccy shows 39F on my CPU, 38F on my MB, 38F on Graphics.
