BeemerBiker Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 The temp shown (42.1 in the pic) does not seem to correlate to any temperature sensor. Selecting different sensors in the pull down dialog box has no effect. One would think that if "core 2" was selected the temp would change to match core2. When crunching BOINC setiathome, the temps on the i7-950 goes up past the max to where they have to be throttled but I never see the 42 degree temp change other than 1/2 degree either direction. I assume this is not normal. Thanks for looking! xps 435mt, win10x64, i7-950 http://stateson.net/images/corsair-prob.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xMacias Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 That 42.1 would be the coolant temp of your H80i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeemerBiker Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 Temp did not seem to match actual temps. However, I finally got around to replacing the motherboard. The Dell XPS-730 (alienware brand) was replaced by eVga SLI3. I went from 790i & Q9650 to X58 & 6 core zeon which I needed. This was a clean install of OEM win7pro followed by free upgrade to 10. After install of iCue the corsair cooler was recognized as H100 instead of H80v2. This was totally unexpected. In any event the temp of the water seems to match the temps of the CPU which is a good sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Coolant temp will only match CPU temp in near zero voltage (Vcore) moments. On more recent offerings, that almost never happens. On a X58 you might get pretty close when doing idle work on the desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
