I've got an ASUS P4C800E Deluxe motherboard, with a Pentium 4 3.2ghz Prescott CPU. My "ASUS Probe" fan and temperature monitoring software was telling me that my motherboard temp. was 38 C... and alarming at me!
I freaked-out and bought a Thermaltake POLO HSF, 5 new High-CFM fans, and re-applied the Arctic Silver 5 (correctly this time, was "globbed on" before).
My Questions:
Are these high temperatures? Everyone talks about CPU and Case temps., but rarely motherboard temps.
What is everyones prefered Temperature monitoring software?
Side-Note: My Heatsink Fan does not work at all, using the CPU temp. probe thingy. Are these often faulty?
thanks.
