Hello everyone,
I am facing heating issue in tmpin2 in HWmonitor after which i have tried to apply thermal paste to NB and SB den too facing the same issue,
Can anyone help me to find the exact cause and solution for the same
Details of my scrap build are as follows
Gigabyte GA-78LMT S2 motherboard,
Amd fx6300 3.5ghz with stock cooler
Woth 6gb ddr3 ram
1x 500gb seagate 7200rpm hdd
1x 500gb WD 5800rpm hdd
Galax gt750ti 2gb oc edition gpu
In iball zps 254 psu.

Edit - i used AIDA64 Extreme
after which i found
motherboard - 62C
CPU - 75C
CPU Diode - 60C
GPU Diode - 56C while gaming

What do you consider a high temp? Understand that tmpin numbers are not always right, the address they refer to is different on different motherboards so can sometimes give false readings. Hwmonitor gives me +127°C for tmpin4 and -255°C for tmpin6. Both of which are impossible temps.

i am using stock cooler can this problem be sloved by using an aftermarket cooler??
 
Most likely, as long as the new cooler is actually better than the stock cooler, many budget coolers are nothing more than fancy replacements that work basically the same, some are even worse.

Stock coolers are designed to keep cpu temps in operating range. To intel/amd that's anything under @100°C. They aren't designed to keep cpus as cool as possible the way decent aftermarket coolers are. AMD has gotten better about that, the new Wraith coolers are very decent, but Intel must have huge stock investments in those cheapo stock coolers because their coolers are still somewhat lacking in ability.

I don't know if anyone actually knows for certain exactly what certain things are or why they change names. For instance in Hwmonitor, cpu temp can be on-core or socket or under-core readings, depending on the cpu, socket etc. Tmpin can be Northbridge, Southbridge, ram, VRM's, mosfets etc. It's a pot-luck guessing game. As to exactly what Aida64 is calling a Cpu Diode is anyone's guess, again that can change according to amd/intel mobo's addressing, but at first guess it's just a fancy way of describing cpu temp.
