Ummm... I realize that. But he stated in subsequent posts that the temperature DID in fact change in the monitor. Read his first reply in this thread:

i didnt get any software or asus utilities installed in.. i do all tweaking from the bios and got the reading of my temp from there as well....

UPDATE: i've changed the cooler to Zalman CNPS9500... still gives me the same result... and now it goes u to 55 during prime65!!!! helppp!!!

The problem could still be the motherboard, but it isn't "stuck" at 44C.

All I can say, is that his temps are questionable, for improvement, but I wouldn't say it really that bad.

Heh, I just kinda wonder if it can't read temps below 44C.

Which really isn't bad at all, but as long as it responds to heat, he can still OC to see if it shows higher temps, and stays below.. well from my perference 70C.

The worst senerio, the system should back throttle to prevent damage.
