Chipset temp.....!, may very well be the reason for your booting issue, is it only cooled via a heat sink, or does it have a fan?...are you clocking, or perhaps the heat sink requires fresh thermal paste |

CPU 18-27 celsius, I have latest BIOS version, and check some pics of it if you want a detailed look at the cooling. N bridge has just a block with a heatpipe through it, S bridge has a little heatsink which is piped through the N bridge to the regulators, which have a reasonably big cooler. I could try taking the mobo RAMsinks off and see if that cools the chipset a big. |

sounds like itd just be the sensor. theres no way that your cpu could be 80 degrees cooler than mobo |

Today TMPIN2 was hovering around 54 celsius, then when I started rendering in 3dsmax with mental ray(a very RAM intensive process I believe) it shot up to 96. As soon as rendering finished, it was back down to ~50. So I don't think it's randomly reporting a high number. My CPU has an aftermarket cooler, so I think it is possible for it to be lower than mobo. The thermal compund theory sounds plausible, I'll investigate that one in the weekend. |

the aftermarket cooler you mentioned, I doubt that youl get your cpu cooler than your mobo with air...you are air cooled right? |

Yep 120mm fan on the bottom of the HS. The case is open as it's just a temporary one, and cable management could be better :P |

ok what i can see of the heatsinks looks like its a decent enough setup.
First id try a few different temp programmes and if they all say the same then reapply thermal paste and post back |
