New Coretemp w/E4300 changes

[Forceman]

There's a new version of Coretemp out (0.95) that has updated support for E4300s. Of course, the updates cause it to show higher temps, which I'm not thrilled about, but I guess if they are correct I'll have to live with them.

On my new setup with an Abit F-I90HD and E4300, as soon as I launch CoreTemp 0.95 the computer shuts down. 3 times in a row then I was able to run it but it crashed when installed the Google Toolbar. Since I quit using CoreTemp never crashed again.

The Coolest is aware now but is clueless...

First time i tried 0.95 it crashed on me too. After i restarted I ran orthos a bit and its showing my load temps as 70C when with 0.84 they were ~58Cish. Speedfan and 0.94 show the same temp but 0.95 is showing the temps as much higher. Is the newer version correct or should i believe speedfan+0.94?

Well, with a 4300 I'd be inclined to believe the new coretemp - it agrees with TAT for me, and Speedfan reports an unrealistically low idle temp (about 2C above ambient) so I'm disinclined to believe it.
