CPU Temperature Discrepancy #383

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
The below comment has been posted in Issue 4 by accident:

"There is a discrepancy between Open Hardware Monitor 0.5.1 Beta and two other 
types of monitoring software. The other two sofware products are Real Temp 3.70 
and CPUID Hardware Monitor Pro 1.14.0. The discrepancy concerns the reported 
CPU temperatures. Real Temp and CPUID H/W Mon indicate the same temperature 
±1C but Open H/W Mon indicates temperatures typically 5 to 10 degrees Celsius 
less than the other two. So, a typical reading is 55C for Real Temp/CPUID but 
only 46C for Open H/W Mon. I also notice that Open H/W Mon and Real Temp 
refresh the CPU temperatures every second whereas CPUID appears to refresh more 
frequently. For that reason, I am inclined to make CPUID the 'reference'. I 
have attached a screenshot that hopefully illustrates my point.

Please investigate."

It seems the TjMax should be 5°C higher for this CPU (Intel T5670, probably 
needs mobile CPU detection).
