Sorry, i have a=20 CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.66GHz (2672.74-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin =3D "GenuineIntel" Id =3D 0xf29 Stepping =3D 9 Features=3D0xbfebfbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PG= E,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CLFLUSH,DTS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,PBE> Features2=3D0x4400<CNXT-ID,xTPR> So coretemp is not for me. While experimenting, i noticed the 1st and 3rd temperatures from mbmon to b= e updated in a fashion that seems natural.=20 [achix@panix ~]% mbmon Temp.=3D 41.0, 201.0, 42.0; Rot.=3D 3443, 0, 0 Vcore =3D 1.50, 1.81; Volt. =3D 3.30, 5.08, 11.43, -11.74, -1.69 I started to trust mbmon, and i think the 1st temp must be motherboard, whi= le the 3rd CPU, and indeed the first value varies betaeen 41-42 degrees, and the third valu= e from 39, (~ 100% idle) to 45 (0% idle). So i assume the above must be right. Yesterday i had mbmon -t > mbmon.out running all night and the highest CPU = temp was at 46 deg C, while highest MB temp was at 43 deg Celsius (if the previous assumptions ab= out the interpretation of the=20 output of mbmon are correct). Both high temps happened while running periodic daily at 03:00 (which incre= ased my trust in those). All that, was after i blew the box/case inside and closed the case. If i trust those numbers and their interpretation then i must not have a te= mperature problem (anymore). Lets see how the machine behaves. There is always the other usual suspect from the memory department :) =2D-=20 Achilleas Mantzios
