790 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 (Asus Maximus V Gene) Z77 PCH Diode shows 43°C always... any process, any loading, any environment temp. - no change, 43°C ... I think, it`s impossible (AIDA 2.85.2406, Win7-64 SP1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpo6969 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 http://forums.aida64.com/topic/1128-pch-diode-what-temperature-it-is-normal/#entry6601 I have an Asrock Z77 Extreme4 and my PCH Diode has never changed once from 43C. That doesn't seem correct. Not even one degree up or down. 'kpo6969', on 04 Jan 2013 - 04:14, said: I have an Asrock Z77 Extreme4 and my PCH Diode has never changed once from 43C.

790 Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 We found Intel 7 Series Chipset PCH Datasheet The PCH incorporates one on-die Digital thermal sensor (DTS) for thermalmanagement. The thermal sensor can provide PCH temperature information to an ECor SIO device that can be used to determine how to control the fans. The normalreadable temperature range of the PCH thermal sensor is from 53 °C to 134 °C. Someparts can read down to 43 °C but this is part to part dependent. Is it true?

790 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 If it`s true, we should have a checkbox to disable this useless measure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 It's not useless at all. You just have to keep in mind that "43C" means "under 44C" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
