Hello there guys! Here is the metter: Whenever I start speedfan, it shows me some readings (Temp1, temp2, temp3, HD, Cores and so on). So far I've read in a fast research. the Temp 2 is supposed to be some memory controller which goes under high temps, but it looks way too high for me. I tried it in 2 diferent mobos (both pof them the same model: Gigabyte H97 D3H) and both of them shown the same issue: 127ºC in temp2.

Everything else looks ok, even cool I'd say, as I have a nice air flow in my case. Anything looks to be working not as intended, but still the temp looks very high, and the speedfan itself shows a flame.

I am not a speedfan expert but I believe speed fan looks for know address registers that are temperature readings. They are not always the same so it will read a the address and try to indurate it as a temperature and thus your get this crazy reading. (I would contact Speedfan to confirm this though)

As for what to do. I would use additional temperature software like Core Temp or what ever floats your boat to confirm.

Ahhh Now I feel quite dumb, but yes, that was quite of the obvious way to go. I'm doing this right now ^^"

HW monitor doesn't show anything wrong, so I guess it's not something I should care about. Thanks, anyways!
