user86 0 Report post Posted November 27, 2010 At times I noticed the northbridge temp detection can flake out. As of writing this it has just jumped from its usual 40c all the way to 255c then back to 40c and so on. Not sure whats up with that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fiery 396 Report post Posted November 27, 2010 In most cases such things happen when the low-level hardware monitoring module of AIDA64 collides with another monitoring software, e.g. SpeedFan, HWMonitor, Asus PC Probe II, etc. Are you running any other software, made by Asus or a 3rd party that measures temperatures or voltages?

Arctucas 5 Report post Posted November 27, 2010 Not to threadjack, but I have a similar issue with the NB temperature on my Classified 3. It will jump from somewhere in the 20s to somewhere 60-70, depending on the system load, every few seconds. I do not have any other monitoring software active.

Fiery 396 Report post Posted November 28, 2010 We've managed to stabilize the NB and SB temperature measurement on your motherboard. Please upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme Edition available at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild1165vs6mnwy3qxzip After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. Let me know how it works. Thanks, Fiery Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is there anything you can do to correct it? Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fiery 396 Report post Posted December 9, 2010 I continue to have the fluctuating NB temperature on my eVGA Classified 3, even with the 1165 BETA. Is there anything you can do to correct it? I'm afraid the current solution is the best we can do That board (and actually all EVGA X58 chipset based boards) uses a shared register for NB and CPU temperature, and uses a special register switch to switch between the two readings. AIDA64 does everything "by the book", but still, the switch sometimes does not happen, and so the temperatures got mixed up (e.g. CPU temp is shown as NB temp, and vice versa).
