Speedfan looks like the only one reading correctly. Seems like it thinks you have a dual processor MB one is reading no processor 11C, the other is reading 40C which is about right.

I've had a lot of trouble getting utilities to read correct temperatures on my ECS boards. If they are pulling the temperature out of the bios the bios might not be calibrated to a particular cpu or chipset. Run the CPU hard for 20 minute sthen reboot and check the BIOS temperature readings.

If the CPU is showing the proper info and getting about the right benchmarks it is ok.
 
here it is...idle for an hour....
i ran Grid Race Driver(played for 15 minutes) together with Need for Speed Undercover (i played for 45 minutes) then switch again to the other game, then other, then the other until im tired..

about the reading in the Pc health, i thought i can see dual temps for dual cores...


here is the shots :

Brisbane's do not report temps correctly. You're BIOS will usually read it right so at least you know what you idle at. I've found that what ever CoreTemp reports is low by about 23 degrees.
 
I have always found Speedfan to be pretty accurate.
You have to make sure you are setting the sensor you want to monitor as it will detect all sensors.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
