dobrinhrkr Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Hello guys, Few days ago I got A85F2-A GOLDEN (V1.0) from Elitegroup and the temperatures are scarry. I noticed that the Aida64 extreme version doesn't recognise the motherboard and I got this: http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/7290/baaap.png I tried with newer beta versions but is same story.

Fiery Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Make sure to upgrade to the latest stable version (v2.80.2300) of AIDA64 Extreme Edition available at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/a64xe After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. Let me know if it makes a difference.Thanks, Fiery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dobrinhrkr Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hello and thanks for the fast reply. I am posting 2 pictures - 1 at idle and 1 with load.

Fiery Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Please note that AMD Trinity processors implement a flawed temperature diode that is unable to provide correct temperature readings, especially when the CPU is at idle. HWMonitor apparently implements a trick to correct the invalid temperature readings, but it's definitely not right even that way, since for example on our test system of Gigabyte F2A85X-UP4 + A10-5800K we get over 110 Celsius values using HWMonitor v1.21 while running the AIDA64 System Stability Test with FPU+GPU subtests enabled. The processor would simply fry at such exceedingly high temperature, so the reading must definitely be incorrect. BTW, AIDA64 also implements a manual correction facility, so if you believe you know a formula to correct the core temperature readings on your system, to make them more realistic, you can try applying it in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring / Correction.

dobrinhrkr Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Hello and thanks again for the fast reply. I perfectly understand the situation and the readings for the awesome AMD processor. Seems that Idle temps are going crazy, while the load temps are kinda normal. Anyway what can I do to fix this problem, because I took this platform so I can test CPU coolers and like this it is useless? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose the only reliable temperature measurement would be getting an external thermal diode that you could attach to the processor die.

Ok thanks again. I will contact AMD and give them some information too Best Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Hi, dobrinhrkr, do you have any feedback from AMD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dobrinhrkr Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 I mailed them. They sent me some basic details and nothing specific. I mailed them back and still no responce. Probably the ticket is already closed because much time passed. I believe the problem is related with the Fintek sensor support for this motherboard. Anyway I am getting a little bit pissed because the motherboard is useless to me in this condition and I have no information from ECS if there will be new BIOS and no details from AMD too.
