Hi Per, > the M/B temp is higher than the CPU temp
This might be right if your CPU cooling is particularly efficient, or your box otherwise has inadequate ventilation. I have a heatpipe cooler on my Opteron, and if I turn up the CPU fan I can make it cooler than the rest of the system at idle. Right now it's 32C system and 33C CPU with the fan running quiet. 45C does sound way too hot for a motherboard with a CPU at 36C, so in your case it does sound as though the values have been swapped. > and the > CPU temp is lower than the temp I'm getting from a probe attached > to the heatsink. That's just as it should be, because you want the heat to be rising into the heatsink and not staying in the CPU core. If it was the other way round then it would probably mean there was poor contact between CPU and heatsink, with an air gap where the thermal compound should be. Cheers!
