Kichaa Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Hello I've got two different temperatures for motherboard. One is just named "motherboard" and have normal temperature and second is PCH which i readed is the "main" MoBo temp, but it has abnormally higher temp than everything else. http://screenshot.sh/m7Qe0w3CqLTxg Which one should i take as correct reading?

Fiery Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 "PCH" and "PCH Diode" are the temperatures of the onboard Intel chipset (PCH), while "Motherboard" is the temperature of the sensor chip. Both the sensor chip and the PCH are integrated on the motherboard PCB, but they're usually far from each other. And while the relatively simple sensor chip always runs quite cool, the very complex PCH could heat up quite heavily when there's a lot of data traffic flowing through it.
