Different Temps Reading On AMD Laptop CPU

_Hustler_One_

I've posted this long time ago about my laptop temps problem

All the possible troubleshooting attempt has been done but no result..

 

Until I installed RealBench, I installed it on this laptop just now..aaaaaaaaaaand............

Found that HWMonitor and Realbench read the temps way too different!

Which one I have to trust? OMG.. Why I didn't do this far long ago.. ?

It's unlikely your CPU hit 116c, it would crash before that, so I would say RealBench is correct. You should use HwInfo btw, HWMonitor is garbage.

Is this it? https://www.hwinfo.com/download/

The lattest version is 5.90 correct?

@schwellmo92 I installed HWInfo and showed like this.. HWInfo shows both temps on HWMonitor and RealBench, so what does this mean? Im getting confused..

CPU (Tctl) reading is the correct one, the package temp reading has a 49c offset by the looks of it, not sure why.

I'm running benchmark on it at this moment.. here is what it got this far, currently still running unfinished.. It still doing OK with max temp on RealBench is 95C, 80C average, and maximum temp on HWMonitor is 145C, 130C average, while HWInfo confirmed them. ?

In HwInfo the CPU (Tctl) is the correct reading for your CPU, the same sensor that RealBench is reading. The CPU Package (TSI) is not the correct value, for whatever reason it is just your CPU (Tctl) reading + 49c (offset). Don't worry about it, everything is fine, your system would crash at 100c on the CPU.

So the benchmark is finished without any problems, but the temps are not my liking.. Here's the result..

I had to reapplied the thermal paste with my TG Kryonaut leftover from my other PC build, but apparently this is just a miss place temps reading by the software..

Your CPU temp got up to a maximum of 95.6c under the stress test, that sounds about right for a cheap laptop, they'll usually hit 90c+ under heavy load.

That wasn't stress test, but benchmarked for a single run. It might get higher temps if I stress test it for 30 minutes
