HWMonitor reported a HUGE temperature

[Nightfallen]

Hi guys,

I've been leaving HWMonitor to run while I was playing some games on my rig and I've noticed that TMPIN4 sensor reported a HUGE temperature ~146 degrees Celsius.

What's that temperature? What's been affected?

Thanks in advance!

Alex.

mobo sensors can be funny sometimes

monitoring SW can misread sensors

best practice is to use the SW from the component manufacturer

yea pretty sure your pc would have shut down nevermind your component melting or on fire by the time you even saw that degrees on hwmonitor :), as others have said above its a glitch in the sensors

Interesting temperature though... I would have expected 127 °C to be honest

If you think that's crazy, you would be amazed to see Heaven Benchmark reporting my GPU temp as 300million C.

 

That's literally hot enough to destroy the entire earth in less than a second.
