OK, I see. The BIOS numbers are all mostly wrong. When you are in the BIOS config (the Del or ESC key thing)...;-) The CPU is running without any IDLE cycles at all. > > I think this is much to high.

What I expect is: +45°C CPU The sensor under the CPU 'cause only the Morgan and Athlon XP/MP have the new integrated sensor but only "latest" mobos support it. Not your KT133A based one. +35°C mobo (but I haven't anyone with sensor seen so far) Could be the CPU -10°C what's sometimes the case with some mobo manufactures. +25°C System (the case temperature) With your system load. An idle system should look like this: CPU 23-25°C (with IDLE and BUS GRANT) system (case) 20-23°C (room temperature) At any time (full load) the case temperature shouldn't go over 40°C with all stuff running (gfx, disks, lan, etc.). Recommendations from AMD and Intel. > I've come to the conclusion that the lm_sensors stuff is crap, No, they have the frame work in place but need the usefull bits.
