Hi folks,
I have a slight "problem" with my BIOS (currently 2719, upgraded from 2619 didn't help)
The problem is that the temperature in the BIOS is being displayed about 23C higher than MBM5 does.
For example, I put my pc on and within 10 seconds I'm in the Health section of the BIOS, which then already displayes a 53C temp of the cpu.... within 10 seconds :( :(
This can almost not be true, the heatsink is attached very well (I've done it more than once in my "Athlon period :D")
Why does MBM 5 display an idle temp of 47C while the BIOS displays 70C ?? WTF is wrong with it...
I have an Epox 8K3A with an Athlon XP 1800+ @ 1700Mhz
(even when it's not overclocked it's "53C" idle according to BIOS
I have 256 MB DDR333 TwinMOS memory CAS 2.5
Could anyone tell me what the cause of this "heat" may be?
BTW I haven't had any crash due to overclocking yet, so I'm very pleased with this board except the "heat" problem.
Thanks in advance,
Garrett
