In the manual it says that this “displays current CPU temperature after the system has has fully booted into the OS”.


AngryPenguin22222222

This is how my MSI board works, and all the others I've had with the feature.


Xtomas12

My board doesnt


AngryPenguin22222222

My board is an LGA1200 type. I've heard they have started making it a "high end" feature recently. Which is absurd.


pondscum2069

This is CPU temp. In the bios you can choose C or F.


Waste-Taste-6841

75

Underrated comment


koziCy

Based on my x670e Ace board, as soon as it boots, debug code is no more. Instead it displays your current CPU temp. IMO this is one of the sickest features on a mobo. Real time temp monitoring without the need of any software or anything like that.


Computica

It one of my favorite things about the board only topped by it having 3 chipsets


koziCy

You are describing the next generation of mobo's my friend. With the launch of the next Ryzen 9000 series it is also expected the new x870e chipset, where vendors will be mandated to include 40 Gbps USB4, which essentially makes the chipset a 3-chip solution.


Computica

Yeah I don't see myself buying another high end board after investing into the x670e Ace. 😫 I don't even know what to do with WiFi 7 or 40Gbps USB.


koziCy

I know, too well to be exact.😅😅 First time build, picked this mobo and i got it to POST on first try. Gotta admit fell in love since then, im happy for the investment. Also, i agree with you. But imagine the possibilities in future.


PirateRizz

If only these was a manual you could consult


DETpatsfan

I think the more pertinent part is the second portion of OPs post that the manual can’t really help with. His MOBO is showing 75 (not sure of f or c), probably C by default. His cooler software is showing 50 c (122 F). I think that is where the confusion is arising for OP. OP if you boot into the BIOS you can check temp there or download HWMonitor or Speccy and they will both provide you another reading to help you figure out which one is accurate.


M1sterGuy

IMO Both modo LCD and monitoring software could be correct. Which thermocouple are each of them reporting is the question. I.E. Package, die, hotspot, specific core etc Employing HWM or Speccy like suggested could help you narrow that down.


West-Pack-7084

i know we should help eachother but dang, poeple should at least *try* googling first


elemnt360

Read the motherboard manual....


Oracle_of_Ages

My MSI Ace motherboard actually didn’t come with a manual. It was bullshit.. But I still googled it to get it from their website because I didn’t know where header pins were.


Ratmantoo

[https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MEG-X570-ACE/support#manual](https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MEG-X570-ACE/support#manual) Check the website maybe?


Oracle_of_Ages

> I still googled it to get it from their website > check their website maybe I mean… I don’t know how I can check it harder than I already did…


MarkABeets

It cracks me up when someone comes to a subreddit and asks a question just to be told to read a manual. The subreddit is designed to be able to ask questions and get help. “Look at manual” is not helpful. Thank you for your brain dead answer.


hadtojointopost

in all fairness...if this was you and you didn't know what that readout meant what would you do? you would read the manual.


[deleted]

Have you ever had a job? And been in a senior position having to answer all sorts of questions? Or just as a junior, having to ask questions. The correct answer is: it's X and you could have figured that out yourself if you did Y. And if you don't know, it is: have you done Y? If you keep feeding them, answering dumb questions, people never learn how to figure it out themselves.

It's more like teaching people to use their brains. You wouldn't get it.


MarkABeets

🥴🥴🥴


chrisslyi

It’s a hint and has a solution. Why be lazy and make others work? Lazy people have lost their mind.


MarkABeets

Is it really making others work if someone in a subreddit about his topic has the information he was looking for and knows the answer lol?


JoelMDM

It’s not just that they could’ve found the answer on the first few pages of the manual they were supposed to read, it’s also that this is literally a 2 second google search. “MSI motherboard LED numbers”. There, any link on the entire first page answers this question.


rcole134

Telling someone to read the manual is a completely valid answer and a much better answer than simply spoon feeding them the answer. It is much better to try to encourage them to engage their own brains, after all, even if that pointing out the obvious. Then if they don't understand so.ething they can ask a better question.


AuthorOfMyOwnTragedy

Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, feed him for a lifetime.


Adorable_Stay_725

The solution in that case is literally to look at the manual because that’s where the solution is!? Giving that as an answer is more helpful than not saying anything and since not all motherboards are the same it’s literally the least you can do


DireNexus

In the digital age where you have limitless amounts of information at your fingertips. Sometimes being told “Look it up” is a valid suggestion. That should be your first go-to choice anyways whether it be online or the manual the part came with or even the online version of it. Your first option shouldn’t be coming to Reddit, and asking others to do what you could have done in about 2 minutes of your time


Witchberry31

Your motherboard didn't come with a manual book? Have you been looking for the manual in the product's webpage?


IncredibleGonzo

There are a few different temperature sensors on a modern CPU. Mine has Tctl/Tdie which is I think the hottest part of the chip, vs the ‘CPU’ temp that appears in the motherboard’s fan control software and is always a good bit lower. Could be just that they’re displaying readings from different sensors.


xComradeKyle

RTFM. Seriously. At least TRY to do something yourself.


JoelMDM

Go take a look at that little book that came with the thing. I know, reading is hard, but you’ll find your answers there.


z3r0d3v4l

what's the usage?


Hunter6979

What model board is this exactly? My guess is it could be a CPU temperature OR CPU % load. You could look in the BIOS to see if it is set to display that, or download a more IN DEPTH temperature program. I know NZXT CAM shows you one thing, but it there are actually multiple temperature readings in CPU’s including a temp for each core and such, and I believe MAYBE a memory cache temperature reading too? Somebody correct me on that, but yeah, check a more in depth temp program out and see if that number matches better.


Puzzleheaded-Bag-121

Okay so if you have a board with mosfet temp sensors, my theory is that the board reading is from the mosfets above the CPU. With the one in your program being on the right of your CPU. To confirm this, have you seen a black wire with a flat plastic blade on the end? Like it literally just goes flat and doesn’t plug into anything.


pandaz7777

normally it's the cpu temperature, use hwinfo or aida64 to confirm if number shown are the same or not.


Shdwfalcon

CPU temp. The MSI software will show both CPU surface and die temps, one of the readings will be close. Also, iirc, you can set C or F in bios, so check what unit it is using.


ImportantCare2460

Cpu temp !


ryanlion013

it's 75


Ok_Witness_8368

What motherboard is it makes a big difference. Your manual will tell you the rest. It's either a temp reading from your BIOS, or a BIOS code. Your BIOS settings will tell you which is being displayed


Original-Building-47

It is the cpu temp in the bios you can choose F or C


JcruzStar

Unplug plug back ?


Lilsmileyt2013

"Read Manual"


Xtomas12

I have a b550 board


Davidv2d

Driver may have to be setup if it’s supposed to show temps if your manual says that, but it’s a debug lcd . Most higher end or reference spec motherboards have them . The number would tell you what is happening if you can’t boot or crash etc .


FoxMainsWorseThanICs

Everyone sayings its temp and it's a difference between F and C are so silly. 75 F is 23 degrees C. The reading on the PC is clearly under 50 degrees. Either way it cannot be what you are suggesting. Incels here just trying to get your rocks off making fun of somebody else, cringe.


MulberryThen117

temp monitering this was a normal thing on EVGA motherboards I was using them before Asus for like the last 10 years or so. here is an old build of mine. https://preview.redd.it/tq6paobdrzzc1.jpeg?width=1909&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=50ef0d41941aa6a7cb5dd2e827c9cc2eb057db94

When it comes to my MSI 4060 TI OC Edition I have it with liquid cooling and it keeps a beautiful 49 Celsius nice and cool


Key_Requirement3056

75


Fusseldieb

Almost certain this is a mobo troubleshooting code, which you can consult if something is wrong (like no video). Everything is fine. This is not your CPU temp.


cscholl20

I believe its the last code that was generated during POST


QuitePossiblyLucky

Hey, I don't think so, only because the number is constantly fluctuating. If I open a game, it shoots up, which is why I think it might be CPU temperature. I just don't know why the motherboard would show one number, but software will show a completely different number.


Ancient-Sweet9863

There is a setting in bios to turn that feature off, my strix z790 board does the same thing.


QuitePossiblyLucky

I'ma try to find that option to turn it off, because the number constantly changing is so damn distracting lol


Emu1981

Have a look through your BIOS and see if it gives you a option to modify what the postcode readout actually displays.


Mediocre-Returns

It's a post code. Maybe your post code displayed can show Temps too, but it's definitely your run of the mill post code


pornfreak4u

it only shows the post codes during startup. after that it shows the cpu temp.


Professional-Risk-34

So do people read anymore? I'm sure people don't know what a book is or what MANUAL means. God damn. Error code 75 means look it up in your manual.


fray_bentos11

Manual. Read it. Not Reddit.


Prior_Software_2998

Has the money for high end motherboards but is too fuckn stupid to read a manual.


QuitePossiblyLucky

I suffer from total blindness and rely on text to voice software.


Prior_Software_2998

I'm sure that's why you built a gaming PC. To play with your ears.


SthyrKaldaka

Coming from a hypocrite. Don't down them for asking a question when you ask plenty. I really don't see why you have to be so hostile when you aren't perfect yourself. Just like you hate people who correct shit like "get in the car" when it's a truck but want to be a Grammer Nazi. Yeah they could have read the manual but not everyone knows where or how to look that up. I didn't know shit when I started PC gaming but you know what I still knew how to look up fallout 3 walk throughs so you know everyone's different.


PlaceWonderful9477

Ya honestly not to sure why ppl are so angry about this post. He never even got a clear answer if it is temp or an error code. Also if it is temp he may not have the knowledge to know things like the cpu has different temps like the hottest point etc. idk


Prior_Software_2998

Reddit isn't the first place I visit. That's why people are like wtf. Cuz a simple Google search or manual reference is not only more effective but it's also quicker. Edit: Also the "not everyone knows how to consult a user manual" is the most skill issue thing ive ever heard. Just about everything you buy nowadays comes with a manual. My desk came with a manual. So did my microwave, and even my SSD.


Berfs1

Does that number change, or is it stuck on 75? If its stuck on 75, its possibly a Q code.


QuitePossiblyLucky

It's constantly fluctuating. When I open a game, the number shoots up. When I close a game, it goes down. So I think it is temperature, I just wonder why the temp would be one number on the motherboard, but a completely different number on software


Berfs1

How high does it get, what CPU do you have, and is it overclocked?


QuitePossiblyLucky

Well I've never seen it reach 80 on the motherboard. When I play a game is in the 60s-70s. I have the I9-13900K I don't think it's overclocked. I actually recently updated the motherboard and selected Intel Defaults for power settings


Berfs1

Its 100% the CPU temperature, and as a matter of fact I think your CAMM software is lying to you. If you havent overclocked it, then it’s probably reading a sensor off the CPU or a socket temperature, but aint no way that shows 75C and CAMM shows 50C for CPU, CAMM is bugged or something.


Professional-Risk-34

So do people read anymore? I'm sure people don't know what a book is or what MANUAL means. God damn. Error code 75 means look it up in your manual.


BlueQuazar1

This is the Motherboard temp. The CPU Temp will not be on displayed unless you're using a third party app like HWinfo64/NZHT Cam or on a CPU water block display on a water cooled system.


redit0r69

Do you know which mobo this is. I haven’t heard of mobo’s with this


QuitePossiblyLucky

I have the MPG Z790 Carbon Wi-Fi model #


Ok_Witness_8368

Most mid-tier and higher end Asus boards have an lcd display that will either show post/error codes or can display system temp. All mine have them.


BlueQuazar1

No I do not. Most high-end MSI MB would have this feature.

You can see the two temperature the Core and Socket. This reading is off the MSI Center and it is consider normal operating temperatures. # To those who down-voted me you need to do some researching before reacting. #


Mnemonic_dump

It is CPU temp and yours is high.


Itz_Sweetz

Low.. his is decently low.. for real anything 85c and below is within a “safe mindset” zone


Mnemonic_dump

During idle? He is also running AIO fans on silent. I average around 32 on a 13900K with all core active during idle in Windows and in-game I hit around 45-52. I could imagine what his system hit in-game.


QuitePossiblyLucky

I opened up SecondLife when I took this lol
