  1. Re:SYS 55C? by yamla · · Score: 1 · on CPU Heat w/ Distributed.Net Client?
    (I posted the original question, thanks everyone for all of your answers. They were most informative.)

    My understanding (from reading bp6.com) is that the SYS temperature on this motherboard tends to be higher than the CPU temps because they placed the temperature monitor right around the voltage regulators. Because these things generate heat, the SYS temperature doesn't reflect the temperature of the motherboard in general.

    For what it is worth, I have experienced exactly zero lockups so far on my system that were not obviously driver related.

    Note that I am running two different speed celerons in my system. Using Linux 2.2.14, you need to disable the TSC skew correction in the kernel. If by chance you are in this situation, email me and I'll send you the patch I use.
