![]() ![]() Nonetheless, this is the temperature shown in BIOS, and on some recent motherboards is shown on the two digit "debug" display. Present Method: Core i Sockets 115x, 1200 and Extreme / X-Series Socket 20xx processors do not have an Analog Thermal Diode, but instead " substitute" the "hottest Core" for "CPU" temperature, which is a contradiction in terms that can be confusing. ![]() ”CPU” temperature is typically inaccurate and can vary greatly with BIOS updates. The monitoring utility provided by the motherboard manufacturer on your Driver CD displays “CPU” temperature in Windows. The Analog value is converted to Digital (A to D) by the motherboard's Super I/O (Input / Output) chip, then is calibrated to look-up tables coded into BIOS. Previous Method: Core 2 Socket 775 and Core i 1st Generation Socket 1366 processors have a single Analog Thermal Diode below the Cores to " substitute" for a thermocouple sensor. CPU temperature is instead a single measurement centered on the external surface of the CPUs "Case" or "IHS" ( Integrated Heat Spreader) where the cooler is seated. Core temperatures are measured at the heat sources near the transistor "Junctions" deep inside each Core where temperatures are highest. Intel Desktop processors have temperatures for each "Core" and a temperature for the entire "CPU". ![]()
