'nuther heat question

[aeromed202]

After getting Everest and Speedfan there is this one sensor that sits at 90c called aux. Everything else seems ok. Anybody want to guess what aux is? Is it just a sensor off by its lonesome or is something slowly turning into glass?

I think it's a false reading.

Usually, the temps are: CPU, Motherboard and Chassis... never heard of a Aux... anyway, if everything works fine, I would not worry.

90° Celsius is actually a very high... too high a temp for any electronic appliance, and if it was actually not a false reading you would have problems.

To be absolutely sure, try entering the BIOS and see if any reading is off-scale (the various softwares read values into the BIOS). If everything looks kosher leave it like that. As my Granpa used to say (spanking me after I wrecked the TV), if a thing works fine, don't try repairing it.
