Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 running hot?

[MrMachoWendall]

I was wondering if these are normal temps for this board being @ 3.6GHz and my CPU socket is at 93 F. Back when it was at stock speeds I used three different temp programs and they all came up with different results. Bad sensors? Maybe?

93f is only 33c which is barely idle temp. That is VERY cool. I seriously doubt that is the VRM or Northbridge temp.

What does it say in the BIOS? That is far more accurate than what any program will tell you especially on AMD. And 93f is very good if thats actually the temp.

I have a FX-6300 btw sorry. Plus I did put vrm heatsinks on this board too. The LE version doesn't come with any. I'm also using a Cooler Master Hyper Evo 212

78-93 F for the socket and 50-55 F for the CPU running at 3.6 GHz

Are you sure this isn't Celsius? Your cpu is not at 50-55 Fahrenheit unless your room is like 40 degrees Fahrenheit.

Now its at 18 C and socket is at 37 C

The LE is a very unstable board , there are no heatsinks on the VRM's.

Well yah that cant be right something is wrong its impossible for your cpu to be that cold unless its freezing wherever your computer is or you have a liquid nitrogen cooled pc that you forgot to tell us about lol.

Senors maybe?

I put heatsinks on the vrms

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

That board will always run somewhat hot.

Sensors might be off , but even with heatsinks put on will still have issues.

Could I get a stable OC of 3.8?
