[SOLVED] Motherboard's "CPU Socket" temp is very high, but CPU temp is low ?

[kashewnutt]

I built my system not too long ago and at first everything was fine, but I recently noticed that the temp for my motherboard's "CPU Socket" is running insanely high and I am concerned, I'm not a computer wiz nor do i know much about building PCs, if anyone has any idea why this is happening, please help me out.

Try using another app to measure temps to see if they match. HWMONITOR | Softwares | CPUID
