Cpu temp sensor burned

Hello all,
K7T 6330 V.3 with 1.3 Athlon
I recently changed my HSF to a presumably better unit than the one that came with teh CPU.
It ended up not cooling any better but running a bit hotter.
I removed all of the components I no longer used (old NIC, bad CDROM) to help air flow but after a few reboots to test the temp I smelt burning plastic.
I found that the CPU temp sensor inside the CPU socket was burned and now I only get red LEDs. The CPU and socket look fine. No debris of burn marks.
Anyway, if the sensor is burned to make an open circuit or shorted somehow, would this completely kill the mobo?
I mean, if ONLY the temp sensor circuit was fried, would this prevent the entire board from functioning?
thanks,
js

Yeah. Sorry if I wasn't clear on that part. The CPU definitely scorched the sensor. I may have inadvertantly pulled it up a little when replacing the CPU, only way it could have happened.
thanks,

CPU Temp 120c burning itunes music

When I'm burning music to CD my macbook pro shuts down when CPU Diode temp reaches 120c. I tried external CD burner ended with same issue. Installed smcFan controller, adjust fans to 6000rpm it takes a minute or so extra to shut down. Even re-modified heat sink, it just added 2-3 minutes to shut down time.
Any ideas will be appreciated.

Burning music to a CD alone should be all that taxing to your system... if you're transcoding music (such as MP3 files to CD audio files)... that can require quite a bit of processing power. The CPU percentages you referenced would be consistent with transcoding. However, even with doing something highly processor intensive, your system should be able to operate within tolerances (albeit on the higher end).
Have you tried resetting your SMC? This can help with thermal management issues:

(be sure to follow the instructions for your particular model as they vary from machine to machine)
I'm not sure what you mean by "re-modified heat sink"... but if the results were better, it doesn't seem like any harm was done.
I'm sort of leaning towards a faulty temp sensor. Have you run something like iStat Pro to check the temps of the other sensors while this is happening?

If you see wild variations, it could be a good clue to a faulty sensor.

3rd party CPU temp sensor??

Like others, my Neo2 is giving me wrong temp readings..
Everyone suggests an external temp sensor, but where do I buy one?

I don't think that you could put it right on the core itself, i could be wrong but i would put it right next to the core or right on the heatsink as close to the core as possible.
I remember when i used one of those thermal sensors on my abit VH-6, put it right on the Celeron CPU (coppermine core) and the temp for the cpu went right up up up! Reason being that the sensor was not allowing the core to touch the heatsink fully.
Just be careful not to sandwich it in between the core and the heatsink.

Neo2 cpu temp sensor

I just flashed to bios 1.A4 and now when I use corecenter or speed fan it shows the cpu temp to be 123C which I know isn't correct. Any ideas what is up with that? Also when using mbm which board is closest on the config to this board?

The problem is most likely that corecenter is reading a false sensor. This can be caused by if you have recently run a different type of temp monitoring program such as motherboard monitor, which allows you to select which sensor you want to use. You might try installing that and selecting the correct sensor, this will put the correct sensor reading in MSI Core Center also. Since this post is older I'm not sure if you still have the problem, but either way hopefully this help...

CPU temp sensors?

I´ve got a MSI 6330v5 motherboard, but it seems like, there´s no sensors for system temp. or cpu temp.
It measures my fans, and voltage fine. So there is a HW monitor, but no temp. sensors. Is it possible to add these sensors to the MB, or am I just f..... in that way?
/Rasmus

FINALLY i'm back here at MSI!
i got a new HD from WD!
Got a new clean win xp pro, so i'm happy to be here again!
hi man,
go here http://mbm.livewiredev.com/
on the left side of the page you see the link 'motherboard list'. This site is made for users who runs motherboard monitor 5.
once you see your motherboard you will see the main sensor chip and the case and cpu sensors of your board.
there are 3x ms-6330 on the list, so attention is NEEDED before determining the sensor chips!!
i hope you will like that page and the software they provide.

990fxa gd80 cpu temp sensor?

My motherboard bios says my resting cpu temp (8350) is about 50 deg C. My Windows program Speccy (by piriform) show the resting temp about 27 Deg C.
Which one do I believe?????
If it is truly 27 deg C I will leave the stock cooler in. But if it is 50 I may get a bigger CPU cool.
Help?

I tried some other programs to read the temperature of the CPU. They all read the same...different from the MB. Much cooler.
I like the MSI board ok. But their documentations and support, and bios screens, all stink. The asus and asrock boards all have much better everything, except support. I have never found manufacturer support of MBs any good except for "we know nothing about it, but we will replace it".
But this forum is pretty good. Better than nothing.
Thanks for the reply!

MOVED: CPU temp sensor hitting 255C during stress test

This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Undervolting & Modding Corner.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=155824.0

Quote from: Bas on 12-January-12, 16:02:07
I doubt TMPIN0 is connected to anything, ergo your program is reading nothing.
If something was 255C then you would see flames comming out of the system.
Exactly, and the heatsink is cool to the touch and the fans slow down.
255 is simply the maximum value of 1 byte - a value that goes from 1 to 256 or in this case, 0 to 255. For some reason the sensor seems to bug out and report a value as high as it can report.

P6N Sli Platinum front audio panel and CPU temp voltage issues

Hi All,
I got my P6N Sli Platinum yesterday, build up my computer without any major issues. However I have noticed that my audio front panel does not work. It could not detect my microphone when i plug it into front auido panel, it works fine for the rear auido panel though.
Another issues is I highly doubt the accuracy of CPU temp sensor. Msi 's software monitor reports my CPU temp is around 19-20 degree, I know that's too good to be true even I am using a water cooling system. Btw my cpu is E6600. Anyone else has the similar issues?
The third, I notice my CPU voltage is bouncing between 1.1 to 1.24 in CPU-z. And the multiplier is changing from 6 to 9, frequency is changing from 1.6g to 2.4g. I only see this in CPU-z. Msi 's own software reports CPU running at 2.4g though. Is this cpuz issue or something else?
Finally, any tips to max the overclock potential of this board? I have overclocked to 3.1g but there are some crashes. Going higher the board just won't boot up. I read a review on anandtech.com says 1.22 bios is good for oc. Where can i download that? I only found 1.1 bios on official site.
Any reply will be appreciated.
Cheers

C2D-CPUs have a digital internal sensor to monitor CPU Core temperatures. Have a look at those with Core Temp ( http://www.thecoolest.zerobrains.com/CoreTemp/ ). This Tool reads the temperature data directly from the register of your CPU. There is nothing wrong with the sensor. It is rather the MSI tool that does not read the data it provides correctly.

There is no issue. What CPU-Z allows you to see there is the C1E-feature of your CPU at work. When there is nothing to do your processor will automatically reduce Core Voltages and frequency to save power and keep temperatures down. As soon as the work load increases the multiplier is set back to x9 and core voltages increase dynamically. It is meant to be a good thing.
I have overclocked my system a little and I like that the C1E feature is still working at this speed setting CPU frequency to 2GHz and core voltage to 1.144v when my system is idle.
If you have problems with this feature you can turn it off in BIOS. The option is labeled as "C1E Support" and might be hidden somewhere. You may be able to hit "F4" to unhide it.
The MSI utilities are not the best tools to monitor your system. CPU-Z, Core Temp, Everest, Speedfan, Memset, Rightmark Memory Analyzer for example do a far better job.

75C CPU temp while CD burning...help

While copying some files to my CD-R, CPU temp in my corecenter jumped 75C and I got the warning beep. I did set the max CPU temp alarm to 75C in corecenter as it is the max temp specified for my processor in the Intel website. Here are temp reading:
Room Temp: about 15C (cold here right now in LA)
CPU temp: 75C (idle is about 50C)
Sys temp: 30C
I don't know if it has something to do with my CD burner as it is an old one (4x4x32).
I still have my old PSU by the way (the one in my sig not yet installed):
current PSU specs:
300W
+3.3V (28A)
+5V (30A)
+12V (15A)
combined power (+5 and +3.3): 180W
Is the PSU a factor regarding the CPU temp or could it be my CD writer? I'm currently installing speedfan BTW and see if I get the same result.

Also go to the temp. tab , and highlight the " CPU" temp. an option box will display down at the bottom stating " display in tray" make sure you check this also.
Hope this helps

Thanks Dave...got it working. Now regarding my other question, is the PSU has any effect on the CPU temp?

3.0c cpu temps

I am currently running a P4 3.0c not overclocked with a thermaltake spark 7+ heatsink. My current cpu temp stays between 43-48 C under load as well as idle. Ive tried the stock cooler too. Any suggestions??

Mine is similar, 45-46 idle and 48-49 under load.
What mobo do you have ?
Originally, I assumed it was a faulty or insenitive thermal sensor, but others with the 865PE-Neo2 "P" series mobo's seemed to get similar temps.
Over the w/e I built another system for a friend, this time with a MSI 865PE-Neo2-PLS mobo and a 2.8 GHz processor and stock Intel cooler (he just wanted a stock system, no overclocking)... I test burned it for 24 hours running Seti@home x 2. Under stress the CPU temp was 49 under load and runs at 45 when idle (ambient 27).
It seems the "P" series boards just run cooler than its predecessors. Wonder how MSI did that ?

CPU Temp Idle/Load Difference

need a few second opinions here. below are my cpu temps (using speedfan, MBM5, and prime95):
w/o CnQ:
idle: 35-37
load: 50-52
with CnQ, w/o SmartFan:
idle: 35
load: 53-54
with CnQ & SmartFan (target 40%, tolerance 5):
idle: 31-32
load: 51-52
as you can see the only difference CnQ has made is in my idle temp, which seems pretty good to me, and is actually in the lower range of most of the quotes i have read on here. my question is, should my temp on load be as high as it is? that's a 20 degree difference, and it usually shoots up to the high 40s within a matter of 3-4 seconds and thankfully doesn't go TOO much further. should the difference between idle/temp really be so great? i would have expected my load temp to be a little less than that, maybe the high-40s, maybe even the mid-40s. there's no overclocking here, folks. not a whole lot of tweaking going on.
i've checked to make sure CnQ is functioning correctly, all signs point to yes. i made sure i applied a correct amount of AS5 - i read enough stories about people applying too much so i kept that in mind when using it. i can't imagine that i may have still needed even less than that. besides, my idle temp would have been way higher if i had misapplied, right? my only problem is with the load temps. i've tried several of the recent bios revisions but disappointingly i see very little difference if any in temps i am getting through bios or speedfan. besides, my bios usually reads 41-44 degrees (that should be idle right?) so i don't even pay attention to it.
is my load temp something to be worried about? if not, is it something that could be improved upon? should i get some kind of temp sensor and give it a manual test that way? not sure how to go about doing that or where to pick up a temp sensor. also, my NB/sys temp is usually hovering in the low-mid 40s but that's because i never thought to get a chipset cooler, which i have subsequently ordered from compUSA (i hear compUSA's FMI chipset cooler is recommended). could taking down the chipset temp a few degrees affect the CPU temp by chance? are there some other BIOS switches i should check out and experiment with? i am not a newbie to computers generally, but i AM more of a newbie tweak-wise.
with the purchase of my new system, my first one put together from scratch (and hey, everything's working fine so i must've done a decent-enough job right?), i have really had to take some crash courses in BIOS issues, upgrading, the whole CPU fan and thermale compound market, which i never even knew existed. my previous system is a 400mhz p2 so you can imagine i pretty much had to get an update on the entire industry as it stands to know what i was doing! hey, i even got a BIOS savior to shield me against corruption, etc. nifty little piece of tech stuff.
all suggestions and recommendations would be greatly appreciated. i would optimally like to get my load temp down to mid/high 40s range. perhaps i'm expecting too much here?
thanks,
kevin

The short answer is that cnq will not affect your load temps, since when loaded, it is effectively running exactly as it would without CNQ.
Yes, the temp will "shoot up" more when you go from non-loaded to loaded with CNQ, simply because it is starting from a lower temp to begin with.
You will learn not to trust corecenter readings eventually - they are by no means guaranteed accurate.
If you put your finger on your cpu heatsink when under load - if it's fairly warm, that's ok - if you can't hold it there for 10 seconds without burning, it's too hot.
Edit: I see you were using speedfan - same comment about accuracy applies.

K9N-Platinum wrong cpu temp + nforce drivers problem

I have a msi k9n-platinum (ms-7250)
Cpu : Amd 64 x2 3800+
4 * 512 ddr II 533 samsung
Asus 7900 GT
6 x maxtor sata hd's
Power : hyper type-r 580 watts
pioneer 110d
lg combo cdrw-dvd
When i builded the system , i installed Windows XP + Sp2 , made all windows updates
After i tryed to install the drivers a got wit the cd.
My system was very instable (i had no problem whit the motherboard i had before)
I made the install more than once , but still got instability
So i went to the nvidia site and downloaded the drivers for the chipset from there , and also made a bios update to v 1.2
System went stable.
Tried again after the bios update with the original cd --> not stable , randomless reboot
so i'm now working with the nvidia drivers from the nvidia site , it's stable but when i go to bios i see that the CPU temp is -38°
Is it a fix for this or do i have a wrong mobo ????

-38°C , seen that a few times now .
I think you should RMA/return the motherboard .
Why , see:

https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=99573.0
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=94762.0
Not the same board as yours but all have a faulty calibraded (non workin) sensor on their motherboards .
The positive thing though is that the boards with this issue that runs on AMI bios doesn't freeze/halt as the award based ones does.

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

Quote from: Maesus on 21-March-07, 23:34:06
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?

Bios reports 62 deg C cpu temp on XP2600/KT4A-V MB

Motherboard Monitor reports the same temp within a few degrees but the cpu doesn't seem very hot at all. This is happening on two similiar systems: same mb and cpu, 350W Antec power supply, 1 hard drive, 1 cd drive, and a 64mb GForce MX4000 AGP video card, 512mb memory.

1. HSF is installed correctly
2. I'm using a thin layer of Artic Silver.
3. One system has 2 sticks of Kingston 512mb and the other one has one stick of Micron 256mb.
But as I said in my original post, the cpus don't seem hot at all. I have another system with an MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR mb/XP3000. The CPU temp on the XP3000 is 46 deg C and it is noticeably warmer in that I can feel significantly hotter air coming off the CPU. So I'm wondering if MSI is reporting higher temp readings on the KT4A-V mbs because maybe the sensor is on the dioide and not the socket.

Where to place external temp sensor?

I have a MSI 845 Ultra (6398) MB with a PIV 2Ghz processor and I have just changed case to a ThermalTake XaserII 6000. The case came with an external temp sensor that "can be placed anywhere". The reason I changed case was that my temp readings was very high (CPU Idle 50C, stressed 72C, MB 40C idle, 46C stressed, HD0 62C, HD1 48C).
The XaserII 6000 comes with 5 fans and I now have the following readings: CPU 45-50C idle, 58-62C stressed, MB 31C idle, 35C stressed, HD0 35C and HD1 28C.
I managed to get the temps down substantially with the new board but I still think that the reading for the CPU is a bit high and since I understand that there are issues with MSI temp readings I thought that I would use the external temp sensor with the CPU and see what happens. The questions is where to I put the sensor (under the processor, between the processor and the heatsink (bad idea?), attached to the heatsink) to get the most accurate/true reading?
The XaserII lets me control the CPU speed (high, medium, low) and the question is shall I do this manually or shall I leave the CPU speed control to the board or to a program like SpeedFan?
Any input is higly appreciated.
Hans

GAWD!! I purchased Yamaha MOTIF samples in EXS format and I have spent TWO hours trying to figure out how, where, what, etc, etc... to install these to use with LOGIC Express. I've searched the net, search apple, etc... still, I've yet to hear a BLEEP outta LOGIC. I get asked for permission to drag folders, type permission, but nothing will go where I'm thinking it should go....
God only knows how much I miss good ole OS9.......
