This is quite dangerous - if someone were to have their package temp locked at a low reading and then they ran something that drove the temps over 95c, I don't think it would increase the fans or throttle at all. I had it lock at 82c once, fans went full and stayed on full despite my going back to idle. CPU package temp gets locked as soon as Aida reads the sensors. Just adding that I am experiencing the same issue. At any rate, that temperature being displayed does not completely lock when I start the sensorpanel (unlike CPU package temp) but it does seem to be much less likely to change over time. So maybe it's just a single core temp? Or motherboard temp? Not sure. Not sure what temp it is honestly, I saw at one point that I had 70c package temp and only showed 38c on that led. However, it's also true that the temp being displayed where the POST codes normally go is *not* CPU package temp. I mention this because I don't think AIDA was causing this issue until I updated my BIOS to 0705, and the implementation of something directly tied to CPU temp monitoring seems to be a bit buggy, so it seems like it'd be worth investigating.ĮDIT: So I decided to experiment, and set that BIOS setting back to "Auto" so that it displays temp, and verified that Aida still locks the CPU package temp when sensors are turned on. No one knows what that means or why, but it's probably just a bug. This does not happen when running Ubuntu off a USB, it stays "AA" in that case, so it's definitely something in Windows triggering it. There does seem to currently be a bug in BIOS 0705 where, if you set it to "Show POST codes only", the LED shows the normal and expected "AA" code only briefly while Windows is loading, only to permanently change to "81" in the middle of the load. As I am already displaying CPU Temp both elsewhere on the motherboard and on my CPU cooler, I personally immediately changed that BIOS setting to "Show POST codes only", which was the default behavior before this latest BIOS version. On the latest BIOS version for my ASUS Crosshair X670e Extreme, BIOS 0705, they modified the BIOS such that the 2 character LED that normally displays Q-Codes (POST status) on Asus boards now displays CPU temperature by default instead.
