December 1, 2006, Newsletter Issue #41: Monitor CPU Temperature
1
Tip of the Week
There is software on the market that quite a number of people use to monitor the temperature of the CPU using a sensor on the motherboard. This might seem like the ideal way to detect if your PC is overheating, but in reality it can give you a false reading about how hot your CPU really is.
The false reading is generated by the fact that sensors on the motherboard can be affected by the temperature in the room. A false reading can be generated if the hardware is not calibrated properly as well. It is better to use the sensor on the newer CPUs and have this read by the motherboard, rather than depend on solely on the sensor on the motherboard.
