I stopped trusting that sensor. After some hours of idle, it shows me: k10temp-pci-00c3 Adapter: PCI adapter temp1: +16.8=B0C (high =3D +70.0=B0C) (crit =3D +70.0=B0C, hyst =3D +67.0=B0C) 16.8=B0C is roughly 4=B0C _below_ the room temperature. If I'd boot to = Windows=20 right now, the mainboard-manufacturer's system utility shows a CPU temp= erature=20 of 25=B0C (which is more or less the usual value it shows for Windows w= hen=20 idle). My CPU is: processor : 5 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 21 model : 1 model name : AMD FX(tm)-6200 Six-Core Processor =20 stepping : 2 microcode : 0x6000626 running on an Asrock mainboard (Kernel is a gentoo-3.8.1-r1). My question to the list is: Could this strange temperature be realistic= ? Does=20 anyone have similar observations with AMD-Bulldozers? Sascha
