    :confused
    hi im new to these forums but any help would be great. I have a M2N-SLI DELUXE MB my problem is with pc probe. when i start up my pc it reads 45 to 50c when gaming it goes up to 70c.thats a prob i know. but when i run sisoft,everest or sensorsview everything seems to be fine about 25 to 30c idle and about 35 to 40c under load . I guess my question would be what one do i go by i want to belive pc probe but that seems hot compared to the others. ive never had any probs with sisoft or sensorsview,but i dont want to fry my new system. just want to be reassured that its not too hot.
    thanks for any answers ahead of time .

    Hi

    At times ASUS PC Probe can be a bit off in its results, do you have latest version?

    also after a decient session of using your PC and say after gaming, reboot and enter your BIOS, and check the temps the bios is reporting?

    Hi should be able to download from that link I provided about now as its been updated :)

    Also what is the Bios version you have as at times the updates in Bios versions from the default shipped one have many fixes I know my defualt one had high temps, flashed with latest and lowered recoreded temps by 10 degs, HOWEVER flashing the bios is not to be taken lightly as it can result in a dead motherboard.

    To find Bios version and as you have Everest, run it and click Motherboard > Motherboard and next to Motherboard ID should be a long code and at end is date and version of Bios.

    bios version is 1302
    got the new pc probe it still shows same temps . i guess these are right temps. its really not a problem as ive got 2 new 120 mm fans and temps are alot better 25c to 35c im happy with that . i was just wondering witchone was the better to use. one thing the scythe kama cross 100mm fan didnt meet my standards so i put a 120mm on it and all is well. plus the other 120mm in the front of my case helped out alot too
