Problem with GA-870A-USB3 with AMD pheno ii x4 840 AM3 (Vcore voltage is floppy)

[vilu]

None of those didn't work... And im running out of ideas

[vilu]

Problem found! Cpu warms up to 65 c when i disable AMD K8 Cool&Quiet Control. I lowered Vcore voltage. How low in min it should be.

Voltages for the Phenom ii x4 840 are between 0.85V - 1.40V. Maximum temperature is 71°C

I installed new Cpu cooler. When i was installing I found about 1mm fat sensor between heatsink and Cpu. I removed it from there to other place. Just to make sure is that the sensor which monitores cpu temperature but should there be one of those and is there another somewhere else. I have Nexuses Case and it haves light to show how warm temperature my cpu has so i guess it was that so not a big deal then but was it sensor which bios uses? Now Cpuid and open moitor shows under 30 c

Hi again,

No, the sensor you are describing is one that is installed in the PC case and should never have been placed between the CPU Cooler and the CPU itself. The temperatures for CPU are monitored by its own sensors and that is why Cpuid is now showing 30C as the cooler is making proper contact.

Good just wanted to be sure. I just thought when I removed old one wow thats stupid place for sensor and then replaced it to between plates of cpu cooler os it wouldnt harras anything there and thx again for the help.
