Here are my conclusions:




Speedfan reads as follows:

HD: 47C
Temp1: 38C
Core: 52C



MobileMeter reads as follows:
CPU: 62C
HD: 47C



Everest reads as follows:
CPU: 37C
HD: 47C


Hmm. I think MobileMeter reads incorrectly for my laptop. Don't know why, but it does.



Edit: I'm willing to bet I can prime all night long. I'm absolutely sure it's the GPU, but I don't know what can be done about it (they had a placeholder that's definitely not made for dissipating heat between the metal contact on the heatsink and the actual GPU when I opened her up - I removed it, cleaned the area, and applied new AS5 onto the GPU).

Edit: Looks like Speedfan's core reading is the correct reading for the CPU temp, but why are Everest and MobileMeter so different? MobileMeter, gives me 68-69C under load. Speedfan gives me 61-63C under load, and Everest stays at 37, 38. Do you think the sensor Everest reads from is a different temp? Maybe mobo temp?
