High AUXTIN Temperature in SpeedFan: Intel Core i5-4690k, MSI Z97 Gaming 7, MSI GTX 970 Setup

Question

Does anyone know what this AUXTIN in speedfan means? It worries me that the temperature jumps up to 130 even

CPU usage is also quite large because 25 is probably not the norm and everything is turned off (???,)

Hello !!
Found on the net, but maybe it will help you.
AUXTIN is a temperature sensor placed most often in the power supply (less often on some element of the main plate) and in most cases it shows temperatures from space (for me it was even above 300 degrees). These indications can be ignored without fear.

This is the temperature of the power supply, although you have a good one. You don't necessarily have to worry about this, usually these readings are not correct, but you can put your hand to the air exhaust from the power supply just in case and check that it is not blowing hot air. The consumption is not that high, and you don't have to worry about it either.

And those -60 don't bother you? ... You have HWmonitor so you can remove this funny fan because it is not useful anyway.

-60 hehe I just noticed it. Thanks for the answers, I decided anyway to dedicate today to cleaning the computer inside.

Since my colleague is sure that this is the temperature of the power supply, could I ask you to explain to me how it is read from this power supply? Because for such fun you would need a sensor in the power supply and some connection to the monitoring system on the board. And while I assume the occurrence of a temperature sensor as possible, I wonder how the power supply would communicate with the board in this matter.

2-pin cable ?! I just wonder where this sensor should be placed? I have a sensor in my power supply stuck in the rear grilles, which would blow the air from the power supply on it and it shows something there

dt1 · Answer

But where do you connect this cable to the MSI Z97 Gaming 7? The board has no connectors for connecting external sensors. If you mean connecting strange cases to the front panels with a large LCD inserted there for a fancy, these have nothing to do with the AUXTIN indications, so I'm curious how AUXTIN is to measure the temperature of the power supply in such a computer, on such components

badboy84 · Answer

Asus thought about it and left such a connector as for the readings, I only checked organoleptically and I have no objections.

PCG_PL · Answer

I honestly don't know, that's just how I read it it could go through a 24-pin, or the program would somehow estimate it in terms of voltages.

dt1 · Answer

It could not, the specification does not provide for this

PCG_PL · Answer

I will suggest one more guess, maybe it's the power section on the motherboard and not the power supply? This is probably a more realistic option.

badboy84 · Answer

It is definitely not a power supply, it does not look like the power section either, because the temperature is too high. It may well be the temperature of your neighbor's fireplace. I really would not be influenced by what this program gives, but to use the software provided by the manufacturer.

PCG_PL · Answer

As far as I know, the section can get so hot sometimes, especially when it is not cooled. And the fact that SpeedFun should not be suggested is another matter.
