hey guys

i built a new pc and everything was running smoothly and then i decided to check the temperature and something didn't add up. my cpu temp was going from -128 to 128 degrees in seconds so i opened up speed fan and it says my cpu is at 25 Celsius. its a bit tricky to explain so i took a screen shot of it. can anyone explain what is going on.
also what is AUXTIN3 and why is it such high temperature? ive done some research to no avail.

thanks in advance

If I had to guess the auxtin3 is reading a faulty sensor. I tried doing some research to find what it is and couldn't find any information. I have my doubts that anything in your system is running that hot.

HWmonitor senses the temps of most of your components such as RAM, CPU, GPU, etc., so I would install it and check to see if any of your other components are reading that high. If a component in your system is running that hot that might help narrow it down.
thanks for replying. i did use thermal paste during the installation. i checked it with real temp and im getting the same resuslts . TJ max usually in high 70's and temp between 20-30 degrees. so i am starting to believe the rainmeter skin that is saying my cpu temp is at 100% is fault.

I would agree. Rainmeter is not showing accurately. I would double check everything against your bios and/or mobo manufacturers system monitoring program just to be sure, but there is no way your CPU just jumping temps that much or even getting that high.
