PC shuts down during prime95 test (unlocked 4th core test)

[25kovacikpeter]

Hello,

after unlocking 4th core and then running prime95 test for about 20-30 seconds my pc shuts down.
I checked temperatures (HW monitor) during the test:

motherboard
TMPIN0 37°C
TMPIN1 54°C
TMPIN2 68°C

CPU
all cores more than 90°C, then pc shut down, i read that after unlocking core the temperatures are not showing correctly ???

i also played dota 2 without problems, the temperatures looked like this

motherboard
TMPIN0 39°C
TMPIN1 52°C
TMPIN2 54°C

CPU
all cores ~88°C

Is there any solution to this? Should i lock the core and overclock the CPU or buy new cooler because now i am using stock cooler


motherboard gigabyte m68mt-d3
CPU athlon II X3 445 unlocked to phenom II X4 B45 (L3 is not unlocked)
ram 4GB
GPU Radeon HD 5670 1GB

Thanks.

You should buy the aftermarket cpu cooler, because you unlocked the cores. And your MB can support up to 125W TDP cpu, the phenom II X4 B45 has 80W TDP, so the MB is fine with unlocked cpu, keep in mind, not all the MB can do the unlocking.
