I've got a Biostar Tforce6100-754 that I run with a Sempron 3100+. When I was doing the OC testing with Prime95, I noticed that the temps would spike from the 31C idle to 43C almost immediately, then pretty quickly climb its way into the mid 50s. When I stop Prime, it drops in a second's worth of time down to 42C.

Is this kind of temperature behavior usual? Is the motherboard temperature monitor off? I'm using a slightly better than stock cooler so I know it's not that great at keeping the chip cool... Suggestions for remedying this problem?
 
i've got the same problem w/ my FX55 and my Abit 32X mobo...

lol unfortunatly i can't help you, but if anybody could.... you'd be helping a whole TWO people at once :D
 
Does it peak at around 50C? For an OC and running prime that doesn't sound rediculous.
 
mine does the exact same thing, with the exact same temps (generally)

except i'm running watercooling....

:D
 
I have high readings with my abit at8 32x mobo as well. I'm beginning to think the board just reads temps high.
