Software monitoring, Speedfan is bad ?

I have many software to check the temp of my hardware, ( SensorsView, PC wizard, CoreTemp, Rivatuner, SpeedFan ) and they all give pretty muchthe same result, i.e. CPU ( Q6600 ) = 34c/32c/34c/34c, MOBO P5K-e = 26c

Only SpeedFan give different results, CPU =20c/20c/20c/20c, also, there's something called ''AUX'' and gives a temp of 127c, ?? what is that ? what is AUX supposed to be ? in all the other softwares, AUX = 26c, so i guess it's my mobo... but i don't know. ..

So, any guess about that 127c ''AUX'' in speedfan ?

For the AUX, i'm no help there. But for the speedfan temps, i've read somewhere that it reads the core(s) 15C cooler then they are

I'll try and find the link

Found the Guide but it's currently been updated by the Author, so it's only half finished.

Hope it's help

Yea, seems like Speedfan isn't accurate for CPU temp.

Also, is there a software that show how many cores of my Q6600 are used when running games/applications ?

nevermind, PC wizard can.

Not to hijack thread or anything, but can anyone recommend a decent temp monitoring program thats not speedfan? Heard coretemp is good, but i think thats C2D procs only.

Hi,

This is correct, and the temp reading are accurate. In speed-fan 4.33 go to configure, advance, at the drop down menu select Intel Core. At the set to DD menu enter 15 for each core and tick remember it. that's it.:)
