On this computer I assembled from old part, I'm getting an "AUX" temperature of 120C!!!
I have no idea what it is. Computer runs fine, CPU and board temp are perfect. I'm afraid it might be the GPU (old Radeon 7500 with tiny whiny fan).
But that hot? I would see some artifacts on the screen right?
So I though... maybe it's just a wrong reading.
Board: Asus P5P800
CPU: P4 630

GPU: ATI Radeon 7500
Should Speedfan temp reading be trusted on older gear?

So, relax.As a final note, please remember that not all available temperature sensors are actually connected to something. If you happen to read unusually high or low temps, they are likely to be from a disconnected (unused) temperature sensor.
Re: Should Speedfan temp reading be trusted on older gear?
What I love right now is that speedfan is detecting my fan rpm's at 450000 and 650000 on my new p35 board. I wonder if that would beat a jet engine for noise level... So ya it's not perfect, there's plenty of data speedfan cannot read correctly.Hardtailed wrote:On this computer I assembled from old part, I'm getting an "AUX" temperature of 120C!!!
