My cpu temp ( normally 40c) is jumping to where my alarm (core centre
by MSI) is going off (47c). It never did this before.The system temp
remains stable while the alarm is going off
I have 3 case vantec fans and the obvious CPU fan . My feeling is that
program is buggy Opinions Please

there is a very real possibility the cpu really is 47C
check the cpu fan to be sure it's spinning freely and is not clogged with
dust

btw: if the cpu is an AMD that temp should not do it any harm
 
47C is really not that high. Can you change the setting for the alarm to,
say, 60C. That is sort of a safe upper limit.

Change the alarm temp... 47C is too low, it would be better around
75C. There is no reason to be worried about a 47C temp, even 60C
temp, unless it's instable or this is a significant difference from
usual full-load temps, in which case you should check the fans for
proper operation and verify that the heatsink is still well-seated.

Interseting.....
My P4 2.8ghz 800bus runs at 39c... i thought that was about normal.....
plugged into a Intel 865PERLL board...
is that about normal or do they all vary ??

if mine was running at 45 i`d be a little concerned....
look at the CPU fan and see whats going on......

there is a big difference between Intel and AMD

Intel will run cooler

an AMD can sometimes run ok up to 60c
