Temperature problems in TMPIN 6 and 8 displayed in HWMonitor, it registers 115°C, what do these temperatures correspond to? my board is an ASRock B450M-HDV R4.0 AM4 I would like to know what is the reason for this, do you recommend to return it to amazon? my build is ryzen 5600 rx 6600 msi 650 W bronce m.2 1tb ------------- juana |

HWMonitor is a 3rd party monitoring app, it does not read all the board's sensors correctly. This is often the case with 3rd party apps. HWMonitor could be reading any number of sensor outputs that have nothing to do with temperature and misinterpreting them. It's not correct and it isn't something to worry about. If you are concerned you can try the official temp monitor for your board "ASRock Motherboard Utility ver:3.0.499": https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B450M-HDV%20R4.0/index.asp#Download" rel="nofollow - https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B450M-HDV%20R4.0/index.asp#Download Be sure to select the correct operating system from the drop down menu. -------------

| I'm having this exact issue on this EXACT model of board. Latest bios version. TMPIN6 is registering as 104c (108c max) and TMPIN 8 is registering as 97c (101c max). Both sensors are definitely working properly as they're going up/down, and the motherboard is even shutting my computer down because it's hitting the thermal safety. What are these sensors correlating to? |

(on HWINFO64 it's registering AUXTIN1, 2, and 3 are all ~100c, at 103, 101, and 98c respectively.) I have a Ryzen 5 5600, 32GB of DDR4 3200, and a 5700XT, all of which are NOT under load |

I would recommend you open a Support ticket with ASRock on the matter here: https://tw.asrock.com/events/tsd.asp" rel="nofollow - https://tw.asrock.com/events/tsd.asp Also, are you certain it is a thermal shutdown not a power related shutdown? More often than not, shutdowns point back to an inadequate, faulty or dying PSU. A bad PSU can also cause thermal issues, particularly if the voltages are low causing the amps to climb and generate excessive heat. As for the sensors, many 3rd party temp monitoring apps misread sensors, even if they appear to be working they may not take into account thermal offsets or other such mechanisms present in the BIOS. As far as I am aware, sensors that report high temps and are read with an offset are set up this way for efficiency and accuracy sake. Someone explained it to me at some point but I don't recall the exact details right now. It has something to do with controlling the fans IIRC and is quite common. This is why so many 3rd party apps often report incorrect temps on non standard sensors, most boards use similar sensors for things like CPU, PCH and power phase temps so these tend to be accurate but other, more obscure sensors may not be calculated correctly in the software and read wrong. I hope this helps. -------------

| See, I know for sure it's not a PSU issue because I can run furmark's CPU and GPU stress tests at the same time, even with +20% power limit and it runs just fine. I might have to look into getting a new MB since that's currently what I find the most likely culprit. (Even if it isn't, i've been meaning to set up a server with my old R3 3100 for a while so it won't be a major loss) |
