Core Center Temps Reversed?

With my recent Live Updates, I updated Core Center to Ver. 1.7.3.0. Maybe I'm wrong, but the reported CPU and System temperatures now look reversed.

ok here is what i've found out or at least seems to be true. The temps are all messed up in both bios and core center. I tried bios 3.2, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, core center all I could try was the initial one that came with cd (seems to give same readouts I got with all the versions previous to the current one) and the current version.
I dont believe 3.6 reverses the temps, with all the bios's and corecenters the ambient/sys temp remains within one C. The core temp is the only thing that really changes.
Idle core temps with new core center
3.6 core 24C
3.5 core 45C
3.4 core 27C
3.2 core 27C
Idle core temps with previous core center
3.6 core 28C
3.5 core 50C
3.4 core 32C
3.2 core 32C
the temps from the older core center and bios 3.2/3.4 seemed to give me published real world expected temps. 3.5 went way high and it seems that the newer core center may have been made to adjust for the high temp by compensating and bringing it down some since the newer core center lowers all the temps compared to the older versions. 3.6 seems to have over corrected cpu temp and combind with the newer core center which is also lowering temps you get really low temps. I went back to older corecenter and the 3.2 bios and now my readings are around 31C idle (26C ambient) up to around 50C if i push it.

BIOS/Core Center Temps

I'm slowly (not much available time) bringing my new KT6 Delta-FIS2R up. I have noticed that the Core Center CPU temp readout is 4-5 degrees C above the same item in the PC Health Section of the Bios. Because of the variety of Core Center problems that I see people writing in here forum with, I suspect that the Core Center is the monitor that's out of sync. Irregardless, is there a way to bring these two sources into agreement?

Core Center, as well as PC Alert, reads about 4-5C higher than the real temp. Use Speedfan instead, much more accurate, and takes less space.

Is there any way to monitor CPU temp without Dual Core Center

I hate Dual Core Center it has done nothing but lock my system up is there any alteranative to monitor CPU temp/Fan speed

I use speedfan... but for Core 2 Duo, I don't think I have to worry about the CPU temp anymore... they are really coooooooooooooll
Does anybody have an idea what the optimal temperature range for core duo cpu:s are? I used to have an Athlon XP, which was typically 65 °, now the my E6600 is running at 35-40 ° [celsius]. But where's the critical temperature where it burns?

Can P4N Diamond core-center allow auto shut down if cpu temp hits 70*C?

I read the Core-Center will allow temp-based warnings and shut down. Does that mean really it will shut itself down automatically if a tempo hits a certain level? this would be a great feature
thanks!

CoreCenter don't depend on it. Force shutdown PC is obsolete way, it cause you lose data, it's a idea. Forget about it. And forget about CoreCenter too. Let the Processor handle thermal itself.

REQUEST: GFX Card temp control for Core Center

Hi !
I'm using both MSI Mainboard and GFX card, 875P Neo MP (using P4 3.2 GHz Prescott) and GF6800 Ultra AGP GFX card.
I got processor/ northbridge and GFX card watercooled.
I got one problem however, I currently am controlling the fans for the radiator with the fan control for the processor since I sometimes use processor more than GFX card, but I may have to change it to the GFX card fan controller since this also gets hottest some of the time...
I would love if there was possible to add the function to Core Center that would show the GFX card temperature, and then set the fan speed according to the greatest temperature of the GFX/CPU temperatures.
Or if it is easier, if there is a program that can do this allready made, a link to it would be nice
Thanx
Regards
Flaps

There is no thing as system/case temp sensor on theese mobos.Only cpu & nv-chipset .
The temperature you see in corecenter as systemp is actually the nvidia chipset temperature .
Northbridge memory functions is taken over by the athlon 64 , thats why MSI finds it more reasonable to display
the nv-chip temp as systemp (remember that corecenter is an allround app for all msi mobos) .
Rest of the nb/sb functions are implemented as a single chip solution in the nvidia chipset chip.
So the traditional nb/sb solution is no longer existing.
The Athlon 64 and Athlon 64 FX each features its own integrated memory controller—single-channel for the Athlon 64 and dual-channel for the Athlon 64 FX. Instead of connecting to a traditional northbridge, these CPUs connect to a video card through a HyperTransport Graphics Tunnel. Data intended for components like PCI cards, disk drives, and USB peripherals is then routed through a HyperTransport I/O Hub, which is embedded in the core logic chip.

Core Center wont show NB temp on K8N Neo2 Platinum

Is it just me or does core center not show my north bridge temp? i can control the fan speeds for the cpu and nb and it shows my cpu and system temp, but under my nb temp it doesn't show anything.
Is it because the board doesn't have a sensor for the north bridge? or is core center just screwing up??

Dual Core Center working in Vista but not XP on a dual boot system?

Hi All.
My system specs are:
Dual Boot Windows XP Pro SP2 and Windows Vista Ultimate
Temps for CPU in Vista averaging at 43 - 45 degrees in XP averaging at 38 to 42 degrees. It never seems to go much higher than 53 on Load.
Thermaltake Soprano tower
MSI K9N Diamond Motherboard
Hiper 580watt Modular PSU
4GB OCZ Gold 6400
AMD X2 6000+
2 X 300gb diamond maxtor 10 HDD
MSI Geforce 7800gt
DVD Rom
LG Dual Layer DVDRW+/-
I am running a dual boot system with Windows XP Pro SP2 on one partition and Windows Vista Ultimate on the other. Both operating systems seem to be operating properly except for an odd situation with Dual Core Center. In Windows XP Dual Core Center only indicates the Mainboard properties - No VGA, whereas on Windows Vista Ultimate Dual Core Center indicates both VGA & Motherboard properties. I have installed MSI Nvidia drivers for the Graphics card & also tried straight Nvidia drivers for the card but it has made no difference VGA will not show up in XP. Yet on installing Dual Core Center on the Vista partition VGA showed up immediately. Can anyone help.
If anyone can come up with an answer to this it would be a real help.
Many Thanks in advance.

have you try to update/install the dual core driver from amd?

MSI P35 NEO & dual core center problem

hi, i have a problem with my motherboard msi, Bios 1.2 and the dual core center 2.0.0.8 ,since days ago, the msi dual core center 2.0.0.8 so many times shows fan speeds alerts false alarms from the cpe temp, for that reason, i upgraded the appl to 2.0.1.6 ( the last),i set the oc level to 25% like with the older version, but time later the pc crash and put a black crash screen and it dont let me to overclock my cpu , i get back to 2.0.0.8 but the fan alarm dont stop, and i dont know if the newer version fix this problem
any help?
sys specs
msi p35 neo bios 1.2
core 2 quad q6600
2 gb value ram
psu duck

right, but i like to use msi dual core center, because i dont like to have the pc overclocked all the time, anyother suggestion for this?
thanks for the reply

Alarm going off in core center

I have an alarm going off in core center Theres a red arrow next to wherer it says 12 v. then in the white box it says 10.95 v any one know what it means and what I could do about it I don't know whats normal for the readings I get in core center. My pc has been locking up and certian games wont load unless it's really cool in the room.

Good questions! Some folks have acceptable readings with CoreCenter, by verifying them with the Hardware Monitor (in BIOS). I compared them with my SpeedFan program, and as far as temps go..I use a laser temp gun to check CPU, case, and video card temps. Voltages on the PSU can be verified with a voltmeter of course. The specifications on your NB fan should be in your manual. Or you can check out this thread at Anandtech:

Core Center displays in fahrenheit?

Ok, this might be a dumb question but I can't find the answer. I have a K8N Neo Platinum and A64 3200+ newcastle.
For some reason, my Core Center started reporting temps in Fahrenheit instead of Celcius. Degrees F is good if I want to know the weather, but I'm much more familiar with C when it comes to computer temps. How would I go about changing it back to C? Plus, for whatever reason, it seemed more accurate then (after updating the BIOS) than it does now.

Yeah...acts like a toggle switch when you right click...then pick!

Core Center Question ?

hello guys,
i wanted to know about corecell feature and and core center i am using latest version now and my CPU fan is usually at 4440 RPM even with gaming but my system temperature increases from 43-47 usually when gaming ? is this ok and my CPU temperature is 51C because its Prescott and i cannot do anything about it ? i wanted to know does corecell protect our computer from electric shock, overheating without Core Center or it would not without core center becasue the first time after installing windows xp service pack 1 (clean installation) i hear loud noise usually the CPU fan is on full speed but as soon as i installed the latest version of Core Center it adjusts it automatically and quietly and should i change my CPU priority for Core Center as maximum does that do any thing and i wanted to know i have DDR 400 Mhz but in bios it says DDR 333 because i have 533 FSB CPU is that right ? well does that mean i wasted my money on this or does that mean an upgrade to FSB 800 will make that better.

well, your MSI P4 mobo is your friend, because it shuts the system down, when the CPU is about to overheat. and the function "spread spectrum" helps preventing all static issues. but you should disable it, when you overclock. at least its recommended that way in the manual.
your temps seem fine to me, and they look even better because you have a Prescott.
dont change any settings in corecenter. everything is just fine there. i think it reports the temps a little higher than they actually are, but thats just my two cents. but 4400RPM is really fast! my CPU fan isnt reported to be faster than 2800 at most. still enough for my CPU.
no dude, everything is fine with your system. DDR400 memory goes in sync with FSB800 CPUs, such as the northy c versions.

DKA790GX Platinum, have problem with changing FSB in Dual Core Center

Hello guys, freshblood is here,
I change fsb in Dual core center, but unfort. core temp and CPUZ don't reflect any changes.

I agree. The BIOS gives you better control with better options.

Dumb MSI Dual Core Center. It is not the best tool ever developed. Use the BIOS for overclocking your system.

Having trouble with voltage alarm in core center

I hadn't used this comp for about a year, just put it back together and added the kingston ram to it that a buddy gave to me. Just found Core Center online and installed it. The problem i'm having is that the alarm is going crazy. Don't have alot of experience overclocking, and i'm not actaually trying to at all. I've been having programs close and games freeze up because of overheating. This is what I see when I look at the core center.
on the left
1.39 v
Vcore
2.72-82 v (flashing red)
3.3V
4.97 v
+5v
11.84-90v
+12V
If I open the tab, the FBS says 200mhz and is flashing blue to black
doesn't look like i'm having any problems with cpu temp. 35 'C
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

do you know how to enter into bios if so then click on default save and exit then see what happens, somehow it looks the voltage for memory has been set 2.7 or 2.8 volt which is too high it should be 1.8 or 2.5 volt
Yea its at 2.5 i beleive. I reset everything to default, and it has been since i put everything back together. Before i had core center installed it was crashing guild wars, and wow consistantly because of overheating. I'll unistall core center and get a monitering app instead.

Core Center Hmmmm

i currently have a neo plat 250 a643000 using the core center set to auto clock the damm thing took itself to 2.540 gigs. I had to stop it ,i could no longer take the stress, Question should i let the core find the maxium oc and if so will it stop itself before i have a meltdown . Are there any safe gaurds set in place I was watching my temps they were 42c and holding under a no load condition . Right now really not sure what to do ,let it have its way and find out how hot this cpu is or just be a tad bit consersative let hold it at 2.40 that was the best i could achieve by manual oc

Question to Wonkanoby: My 3.3v has always read 3.51v in CoreCenter and that's outside of the plus or minus 5% range. It has always played well with my borderline (at least by this forum's standards) RAM. Should I be concerned? As my system has been very stable for about four months, I don't think so. I think I asked this once before, but I don't remember any definitive response. I have an identical PSU to yours, just a little less powerful.

New core center version, not working!

Iv ealier used Core center with success on my old ms-6561 board. Just formated my drive and wanted to download again, but only found this new one and it does not support my board. Where cfan I find older core senter files?

core center does not display the temps correctly. download a program called speedfan. its better than corecenter
