i recently bought a new case with blue leds nearly everywhere lol..it even has a blue temp readout on the front panel..problem is.. twice i applied the lil "thermometer" and both times it doesnt give me the right readout or none at all..when i go into the bios to check the temps its way up 130 F..when without the guage its back down to 95 F..any suggestions on how to fix that? not a big issue but i think a temp readout would look better than the letter L on the display lol

Are you placing the sensor under your heatsink? If so....DON'T!!!!
If you place it under the heatsick, then you can;t get good contact between the cpu and the cooler......that's why you get higher temps.

lol...well i guess i figured that one out the hard way lol thanks for the heads up. wheres the best place to put it? and yes thats where i WAS puttin the gauge lol ( doh!!!)

now that i know not to put it between the cpu and heatsink where can i put it? the letter L on the display doesnt look kosher

either near the base of the hsf and the cpu or in one of the fins on your hsf near the centre of cooling, depending on which hsf you have
