I just know that I am missing something blatantly obvious here. Clues for the clueless here are always appreciated. Also, if this is the wrong area to post this issue, please direct me to the correct location. I apologize if this is so.
My current hardware is a Core i7 920 on an EVGA X58 A1 motherboard running bios SZ2E. I am running Windows Vista 64 bit Ultimate.
When running RealTemp 3.00 it would report what I felt was the accurate temperature.
When running RealTemp 3.40 it reports a 15c drop in temperature.
When running RealTempGT.exe included with 3.40 it shows three cores but displays the same temperature as RealTemp 3.00. Yes I understand I am not running the six core Gulftown processor which realtempgt.exe was written for.
I assume that I am doing something completely wrong and that is resulting in a different temperature than I expected.
Please advise on if I am doing something incorrect or should revert to an earlier version of RealTemp.
