X2100 monitoring hardware parameters CPU temperature

Hello all!
I have an X2100 under Linux SLES 10.0
I'm searching Internet for a long time, but cant get an answer.
Is there a way to get hardware parameters (CPU temperature/fan speed etc) via SNMP ?
What software should be installed (of course snmpd is running yet) to do it?
What MIBs is needed?
best regards,
Alex

Hi,
this hardware monitoring tools are not giving the real temp out. I tried Hardware doctor and it says that my Qosmio is running about 120 (!!) so I dont think its supposed to be the
real temperature of my CPU!
If your FAN is running constantly, maybe your fan and cooling system is clobbed with dust. Maybe cleaning the whole thing would be useful. On the other side, try to adjust the setting in the "toshiba power saver" and try to find settings which fit for you (performance/silence) because you have a powerful system and then its normal that your fan is running high.
He had to cool a CPU, a VGA and a little bit of heat out of the case.

  • G41M-P25 / HW monitor F71889F - incorrect CPU temperature readings?

    My old mainboard blew up (literally, the capacitators leaked) and I had it replaced with a G41M-P25. The tech guy also put a new CPU cooler on the board because for whatever reason he decided that my old one wouldn´t fit. From then on my PC became extremely unstable, according to various monitor programs the CPU temperature was ca. 60°C in idle mode and went up to 85°C (!) within 2 minutes with full CPU load then the board would shut down.
    I went back to the store and complained and got a stronger cooler. The system runs stable now, but the CPU temperature readings are still quite high: ca. 50°C in idle, up to 68°C with full load. I double-checked the values in the BIOS monitor and it shows the same temperatures. But the heat sink is cool (way below body temperature) and when I touch the spot where it is sitting on the CPU it is cool, too.
    So... what are the chances that the HW monitor is reporting an incorrect CPU temperature? Is there any known issue with the mainboard G41M-P25 and the built in HW monitor Fintek F71889F? SpeedFan also reports quite high temperatures for "temp2" under full load (up to 80-90°C), which seems to be the mosfet temperature - but I know that SpeedFan is not completely to be trusted. I just worry about the CPU temperature, according to the Intel datasheet it should be ca. 63°C at most.
    My system:
    Mainboard MSI G41M-P25
    CPU Intel Pentium D 2.8GHz
    The Pentium D is known for getting hot fast, but on the other hand the cooler is already pretty strong and like I said a touch test revealed that the area near the CPU is way below body temperature, so nowhere near 68°C. In comparison the temperature reported for my graphics card is 50-60°C which seems to be correct because it actually is hot and the air surrounding it is warm, too. Should I just ignore the temperature readings? Or is this a problem which can possibly be fixed with a BIOS update? Or maybe complain again and have the mainboard replaced?

    Well, I used Speedfan. Problem is when under load temp2 hits about 80°C thermal throttling occurs which makes my processor useless for gaming. Because of that, I changed processor for my old P4 3,0GHz and OC'ed it a little (@3,27GHz). Temps are similiar, but lower than 80°C. Here is log from Speedfan after 2 mins CPU torture:

  • Hardware Monitor 3.7 & CPU temp

    FYI,
    The newest version on Hardware Monitor (version 3.7 from Marcel Bresnik) now supplies its own CPU temperature monitor extension and no longer relies on SpeedIt, it supports monitoring the CPU temp of both cores. No it doesn't support the throttling capability that SpeedIt was or is supposed to but it at least accesses the real CPU core temp.
    As much as I thought SpeedIt would be cool, it just hasn't lived up to its potential and is a development mess. I've been using HM for awhile and love it, had to rely on SpeedIt for CPU temp for awhile, gotta love this new version.
    Cheers,
    Peter

    Hey thanks for the heads up Peter. It works beautifully as you say..

  • Monitoring CPU temperature on a Digital Audio

    Does anyone know of any downloadable CPU monitoring software out there that will work on a Digital Audio? Temperature Monitor doesn't work on this model (although I think it used to work on a Sawtooth), but it would a great utility to have.

    Hello! Welcome to the Forums!
    Sadly, there is no real way to obtain the temperature of the CPU in G4 models before Mirror Drive Doors. Those models lack the cpu sensor to report temperature. You might have to search xlr8yourmac.com or use Google to do a search for how to get CPU temperature from a Digital Audio G4.
    The technology of those G4s doesn't include a sensor for temperature reporting.

  • X2100 max CPU temperature

    Hi all
    Searching the SUN docs all I can find for the x2100 (mark 1+2) is the 'operating temperature' of 2-38 Degrees C. I'd like to be able to relate this to the results I get from the internal IPMI sensors- CPU and case temps.
    Does anyone know the reccomended max / min temperatures for the CPU and case temp?
    I know the cpu shut down safety is at 80 Deg C but I'd like to know what's the max they can safely run at for a prolonged time without damage?
    What's the max temp's you'd run your x2100's at constantly?
    Cheers for any repsonses :)

    Look up AMD's web site for max CPU temperature for your model of CPU. The critical thresholds are wrong, the CPU max temp is definitely way lower than 80 degree C.

  • Satellite M100 - I can't analyse the CPU temperature

    I'm an owner of Toshiba Satellite M100 series (Core Duo T2300, X1400, etc.). The problem is that I can't analyse the CPU temperature changes in such popular application like Everest or Notebook Hardware Control. Also any other software provided by Toshiba and already installed on my HDD doesn't include some CPU diagnostics including the temperature changes!
    The only software which seems to be working is the HWiNFO32 so there is some thermal sensor inside which reads this temperature of Centrino Duo processor, but this software is not very user-friendly :(
    There is a request for Toshiba to do something with this... I've upgraded BIOS in my model to a version 1.70 but it didn't change anything I could easily notice (or is there any?) :(

    Hi
    Like Mike said the BIOS update has nothing to do with the CPU temperature monitoring.
    The fact is that Toshiba doesnt support any 3rd party applications.
    However, all the temperature programs are not precise and dont get exactly information about the temperature. Only the programs with a physical temperature sensor will give you a exactly temperature.
    I dont understand why its so important for you to know the temperature. The Toshiba notebooks support an overheating protection and if the temperature increases to the critical level so the unit shuts down automatically.

  • Mac Pro 8-core X5365 CPU temperature

    I've got an 8-core Mac Pro which is crunching SETI@home 24/7, with Hardware Monitor monitoring the CPU temperatures and other vital stats. After reading the Intel Quad-Core Xeon Proc datasheet, I'm a little edgy about the operating temperature of these X5365 CPUs, currently registering at 65 - 70ºC on load for each temperature diode, and fail-safe temperature set to 73ºC to disable SETI@home via Hardware Monitor. I also have smcFanControl speeding up the fans because my ambient temperature varies thanks to myself being in a tropical region, my ambient temperature can reach 33ºC at times, but down to 28ºC when air-conditioned.
    My question is, what is the maximum temperature for these CPUs before they run into the risk of being fried/permanently damaged..?
    Inputs from the Mac Pro-DC/grid community are also welcomed here.
    Thanks.

    my 8-core is running seti 24/7 since may without any problem, although my ambient temps dont rise above 30 degrees centigrade...and that's using the optimised apps which make the processor run hotter
    the fans on the machine run 600-2000 rpm all day and all night, i dont expect it to lessen the life of the machine whatsoever. it should be capable of running flat out all its life, that is, after all why we spend so much on these machines in the first place !
    if you only use 4 cores perhaps you should buy a 4-core mac ? he heh just joking...
    as mentioned earlier, when things get really too hot the OS will shut the system down, and if that doesnt happen then the cpus themselves will shut down...
    the heatsinks and fans on these machines are fully capable of coping if your macine is running withing the specified ambient temp range which for the mac pro is 10° to 35° if your seeing ambient over 35 then smc fan control is probably a good idea otherwise it should be fine

  • CPU Temperature of 15" MBP

    When I run football manager, or iPlayer desktop, my MBP constantly runs with a CPU temperature of more than 100C.
    The genius bar have said that the operating temperature is 25-85... and yet tell me that this is too high. Is anyone else having this problem?
    Knowing someone whose MBP actually caught fire has made me reluctant to believe Apple when they say this isn't an issue!
    Also, has anyone with a MBP bought in Sept 07 (ish) also been through 3 batteries due to them being "bad" according to an Apple test rather than "consumed"?

    Welcome!
    The general temp numbers posted here by experts more knowledgeable than I point to ~100°C (±5° or so depending on MBP variant) as being the point where the MBP does a safety shutdown to prevent heat damage to the CPU. Fire is not the issue; the kindling point of the internal components is far higher than the boiling point of water.
    There are several things you can do to mitigate heat issues:
    1) See if any background processes are eating up CPU cycles. Quit all running user applications so the computer is at normal idle. Find Activity Monitor in Applications > Utilities and launch it. If you've not run it before, change the "Show" pulldown at the top of the AM window from its default of "User Processes" to "All Processes." There is a column for "%CPU." Click that column header to sort by CPU usage.
    If any process is using more than about 25 percent of the CPU cycles while the computer is idling, post the names of the processes and we can see if they can be eliminated.
    2) Make certain your physical arrangement of the computer and your usage patterns are not contributing to overheating. Apple recommends against using the MBP on your lap or any surface that contacts the case bottom. The case bottom is part of the heat dissipation system and needs need air. If you need to use the computer in your lap, make a simple lap board from scrap plywood. The height of the rubber feet is usually enough to let the air move but, if you are playing graphics-intensive games, you may want to insert some 1/2-inch (13mm) spacers.
    The main exhaust vent is under the display hinge on the back panel of the case. It must not be obstructed.
    Here is an Apple article on temps but it does not list critical temps fr any model:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1778
    3) Run Apple Hardware Test (AHT) on your install/restore disk that came with the computer. This can see if a fan or temp sensor is not working. If you get an error code, post it here and someone can translate it.
    As for the battery on a late 2007 MBP, I'm on my second. Mine started throwing out highly variable "remaining capacity" numbers at about 11 months and ~25 cycles. It turned out the battery was starting to leak and it was judged "defective" and replaced under warranty. Inspect the edges of the battery at the seam that join the cover to the case. I found a spot that looked like grey-blue papier maché stuck to the seam. It was the goop from inside the battery.

  • CPU Temperature Help

    Hi,
    I've run into a bit of a problem. I started running BOINC earlier this week and it's been working fine, but earlier tonight I was working and my computer locked up and didn't respond to anything. I hard reset it and it worked fine, but I'm a little concerned that it might have been a thermal event. I turned it back on to get the fans running, disabled BOINC and opened the case to cool it off, but at first glance I can't seem to find 1) how a Mac would report a thermal event or 2) a means with which to monitor my CPU temperatures. I apologise if this is a common question. Any chance someone could point me in the right direction? Thanks for your time.

    The floor may not be the best place. Not if there are pets, dust and such.
    If you have an X1900 in there, that thing definitely needs cleaning every 3 months.
    Most everyone I talk to ran SmcFanControl 2.1.2 on Mac Pro.
    The Xeon will protect itself.
    iStat is free? but not as accurate as Hardware Monitor.
    It takes at least 15-20 minutes to cool and you don't want to shock FBDIMMs with fresh cooler air, it is shock to them and those are what get HOT and why they have such large heat sinks. Sudden changes are harsh for RAM as well as disk drives.

  • K9N Platinum - Wrong CPU Temperature in BIOS

    Hi, I have a K9N Platinum (7250-020) with the latest 1.3 BIOS and an AMD X2 3800+. The CPU Temperature in the BIOS has a negative sign in front of it, and it seems to always report -48*C. I tried the latest nVidia nTune and it was reporting the CPU temperature to be 208*C, which is absolutely impossible...
    Does anyone have the same problem? I searched around and it seems I'm not the only one, but I still cannot understand if it affects only some K9N Platinums or all...
    Thanks.

    I assume you are talking about checking voltages as reported by the BIOS in the HW Monitor page, not physically checking them with a multimeter, correct?
    I'll take a look at the numbers in the BIOS, but last time I checked they were ok.
    As for raising the issue with MSI, eventually I will, even if they ask you soooooo many questions (for good reasons, I know...) that it would take me half an hour to fill that form... 
    I've checked with both and software is a little out from what a multimeter state's. Only check with a multimeter if your happy to do so. http://forums.extremeoverclocking.com/showthread.php?t=137886 offer good advise if using a multimeter .....
    The only issue I see is the AUX connector for 3.3v with ATX2.0 spec (Modular cables etc)

  • Tweak the balance between fan speed and CPU temperature / Dell M6400?

    Hi all,
    I have a Dell Precision M6400 17" laptop. It runs really well on Arch, but is a bit noisy. It has always been noisy, btw, but I recently noticed that the CPU fan was blowing a lot of air even though the CPU temperature is lower than 70°C. I also have a macbook air, and its CPU runs at 70°C all the time, which seems to be normal. I would like my m6400 to behave similarly, and I'm sure someone here know how to change that

    When I start the laptop, its CPU fan stays at its minimal speed only for 1 or 2 minutes, then increases its rotation speed to a second level. It reaches it maximal speed only under heavy load, when the CPU reaches >80-95°C. I would rather let the CPU run a bit hotter before the fan starts to blow: let's say the fan could enter its intermediary speed between 70°C and 85°C instead of 55-80°C, and blow at is its maximum speed beyond that.
    I checked the Fan Speed Control wiki page, but lm-sensors is not able to show me the status of the fans. Any idea ?
    Aurel.
    PS: the temperature of the GPU is not reported by sensors, and nvidia-settings reports around 60°C. Its dedicated fan is very quiet.

    Hi all,
    I have a Dell Precision M6400 17" laptop. It runs really well on Arch, but is a bit noisy. It has always been noisy, btw, but I recently noticed that the CPU fan was blowing a lot of air even though the CPU temperature is lower than 70°C. I also have a macbook air, and its CPU runs at 70°C all the time, which seems to be normal. I would like my m6400 to behave similarly, and I'm sure someone here know how to change that
    Hi aurelieng,
    I'm in the same situation from at least 1 month ( INTEL CORE 2 EXTREME X9100, 3.06GHz with 8GB ram, one solid state disk 128 GB, and one sata disk 500GB)
    My dell M6400 has dual boot: ubuntu and windows7. The fan works a lot and continuosly in both environment and this is the reason because I have doubt that the origin of the problem is in hardware problem?

  • [SOLVED] Question about CPU temperature

    Hi everybody,
    I just want to ask a question about "standard" CPU temperatures because my laptop (a Dell Vostro 3700) is permanently hot with the fans on even when I am not doing anything special.
    I have CPU freq scaling active with the conservative governor, and I use Gnome Shell 3.2 with an nVidia using the nouveau driver.
    Here are "stable" temperatures while writing this post:
    # sensors
    acpitz-virtual-0
    Adapter: Virtual device
    temp1: +72.5°C (crit = +103.0°C)
    nouveau-pci-0100
    Adapter: PCI adapter
    temp1: +78.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +110.0°C)
    coretemp-isa-0000
    Adapter: ISA adapter
    Core 0: +73.0°C (high = +95.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
    Core 2: +73.0°C (high = +95.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
    And this is the output of mpstat
    # mpstat -P ALL

    The fan, of course, is full speed (very annoying)
    I think that these temperatures are quite high, but I don't know what's really causing all this heating because my laptop is basically idle.
    Any suggestion?
    Thanks.

    Core 2: +64.0°C (high = +95.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
    After (after playing 8 min youtube video)

    Fan spinning is better (less noisy) after specifying the kernel parameters.

  • How to read the CPU temperatures of a RT PC [LabVIEW RT]

    Hi,
    I am programming a stand-alone RT application with LabVIEW RT that runs on a regular PC.
    I would like to monitor the different system temperatures (CPU,...) and if possible the fans speed.
    I found an example that performs this task for PXI systems but not for regular PC.
    Does anybody know if this is possible and how I can do it?
    Thanks

    Here is a solution that reads the temperature via a VBS script. The script uses WMI to access the Temp.

  • No CPU temperature sensor on Intel based Mac mini?

    Does new Intel based Mac mini has no CPU temperature sensor like the first, PPC based, Mac mini?
    If I'm wrong what universal utility should I use to monitor the CPU temperature of my brand new Intel CoreDuo Mac mini?

    Every time a new model Mac comes out, the temperature monitoring utilities have to be updated. Obviously, the insides of the Intel Mac mini is different from the PowerPC Mac mini. The folks who write those kinds of tools can't see into the future and write a utility that will work on computers that haven't been released yet. Just give them a little while to catch up!

     What you have suggested is good only if the Thinkpad Hardware of the SAME QUALITY are a available everywhere in the world, almost same prices and can be brought easily without delays  
    If you wanted a 100% perfect cpu with twice as much cache memory (compared to yours), I could probably get you one for about $10 delivered to your door (more or less depending on cost of postage). I can certainly understand why you wouldn't want to waste your old chip, but someone using a slower chip might be willing to pay $5 for it, so it wouldn't be a complete waste. 
    These are chips that originally cost hundreds of dollars and the way I see it is as cheap as they are selling now, I can't afford not to upgrade. Generally the fastest chip in any line are quite expensive even after a few years, but the models we are talking about end up being so cheap that they are destroyed in order to salvage $1-2 of gold from them.  
    However if you're happy with your performance, then there is no reason to upgrade. 
    There is one other aspect you may want to consider, if your system has the newer version of system board that supports Penryn cpu chips, then you could get a more advanced cpu chip that runs cooler, since you're concerned about running temp. If your laptop was manufactured in 2008, then it's very possible it could have a board that supports the penryn class cpu.
