I have an AMD Phenom II x6 processor which is overheating very easily, especially considering it's water cooled. I'm trying to monitor the temperature (in Windows 7) to see what's going on, but I can't seem to get a good reading on the core temperature.
I've tried two different programs: HWMonitor and : Core Temp
Both of them just give readings of 0 degrees C for all the cores (obviously an error).
So I'm curious:
- What could be causing these programs to not measure the temperature?
- Is there any program that could monitor the temperature?
- Could this lack of temperature reading be associated with my computer overheating?
- If so, how could I remedy it?
