Motherboard sensors aren't always that accurate, so sometimes getting a thermal sensor with a digital display gets more accurate results. But, you then have to affix the sensor as close to the CPU as possible... Generally on the base of the heatsink just out of the way of where it will contact the processor.


I actually installed an external temperature sensor, and it reads nearly identically to the motherboard sensors. I was surprised. Almost always the readings are identical, and at worst they are different by 1 degree.
