MBM and EpoX EP-8RGM3I Ok... first off let me say im not overclocking at all, mainly because this pc is being for my car pc and secondly because of the lack of oc abilities this mobo has... but i want to monitor temps on my board especially crucial being in a car, i installed MBM (Motherboard Monitor) but it didnt have my mobo's model in it so i chose a similar epox mobo... now it said that the cpu temp was round 71 celsius and the case temp was 35 celsius... that didnt seem right, isnt it the other way around or shouldn't it be? also does anyone know where on this board the case temp sensor is?

I would advise to reinstall the cooler though and put some new thermal grease (Arctic Ceramique would be a good choice). As to case temps, they are usually measured somewhere on a motherboard - it isn't usually the chipset's temperature (while many people think so). Could be everywhere, can't tell ...

yea ive switched the cpu and case temp sensors in mbm, and that seems to be correct, because idle i now have round 35 celsius for cpu, and when i set another larger fan ontop of the already stock cooling unit, the temp drops for the cpu not the case
