Wierd spikes in Voltage and temperatures.

[Jizburg]

i am running an AMD 8350 on a Asus Crosshair V Formula board and sometimes the Ai Suite wars me about Spikes in temperature and Voltage and fan RPM.

In Aida 64 the spikes are very noticable and goes totaly of the scale. one time one of my 200mm fans "apperantly" Rewed upp to a whopping 20 000 RPM for half a sec and back down to normal RPM.
and once the North bridge said that it was using like 30V for half a sec..... and other wierd spikes

 

I get that these spikes are totaly fictional and has nothing to do with reality, but does anyone have any idea why my computer get these spikes.

I get them on my Rampage IV Fomula on the X79 chipset, too. There doesn't seem to be much you can do, but it really doesn't matter anyway.

I have lost my confidence in AI Suite to provide accurate information with my CH5..It tells me that my CPU temps are at -128C..and that my voltage is at 0.00v..I have found that Open Hardware Monitor or HWmonitor give a better stable account..

I was going to say, it's more likely a software issue than a physical board issue.

 

Alot of motherboard manufacturers software isnt that good (exception being MSI's).

give these a try : http://openhardwaremonitor.org/

Or : http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html

Or: http://www.hwinfo.com/

I use Open Hardware Monitor..I find that it gives me all the info I need and seems a bit more stable than HW64..
