PC started shutting down when playing games. Figured it was the PSU, but found this monstrosity of a reading in HWiNFO..

>>5,000 rpm cpu fan in 2017
what the fuck if true.

Stock cooler fan is like, 60mm or something.
Jet engine when it goes full tilt, lol

I didn't build the pc.

>>59391933

My core 3 runs upwards of 10C hotter than the rest. I figure I'm going to repaste and seat my cooler but yeah, 3 tends to also be close to package temp which is then high while core 0-2 are much lower.

the last time i saw a heatsink with a 60mm fan was on a athlon xp in the early 2000's. upgrade that shit senpai that's your problem i bet.
>>
>>59393992
Fair enough but, i still don't get why CPU package is literally 2x the reading of everything else

>>59394073
Aye, i was surprised too. Pretty sure I have an Arctic Cooling Freezer rev 2 and some Arctic Silver lying around here somewhere; i'll try get it together.

Apart from the noise though, the stock cooler it seemed to get along fine. Semi-random shutdowns only started happening a few days ago. Thought PSU, but the suspected temp safeguards. And then found this insane reading. I'm at a loss :/

Your cooler isn't on properly. Refit it and apply thermal paste and take the AMD sticker off the heat spreader.

>some amd apus get fucked temp readings literally everywhere

Well, fuck me sideways. You're right!
Got me googling and I found this: http://www.tomshardware.com/faq/id-2122665/understanding-temperature-amd-cpus-apus.html

Tl;dr:
>Yes, Most programs can't read APU temp signals properly
>One program that's guaranteed to work is AMD's own Overdrive
>Temperatures are presented in an annoyingly indirect way though

-Pic related is temps with SWBF running as in the OP, according to both Overdrive and HWiNFO.
-"Thermal margin" = (max_temp - current_temp).
-A8-6600k max_temp is 74 C (http://products.amd.com/en-us/search/APU/AMD-A-Series-Processors/AMD-A8-Series-APU-for-Desktops/A8-6600K-with-Radeon™-HD-8570D/61)
-HWiNFO is reporting 99.4 C; Overdrive is reporting 54.2 C

Basically it was HWiNFO all along. There is no temp issue with my rig. Hooray!

>Well shit, that leaves me back to square one with the shutdowns
