Hi all, just made an account to post this odd issue I witnessed today and to see if anyone has seen this behavior before. My system is a 3900X on an ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus (Wi-Fi) motherboard. I built it in September 2019 and it's been running great with nearly daily use. I keep HWiNFO64 open to display the temperatures and different sensor readings as I'm sure many of us do. This morning while under a very light load (YouTube plus a remote desktop session), I noticed the system getting loud. I look over at HWiNFO64 and it's reporting the CPU Package temperature at over 100C with the motherboard controlled fans ramped up to max in response. Everything else looked normal though, CCD1 and CCD2 temps are idling in the 20's C, EVGA CLC 360 AIO pump is still running. Windows is running along with nary a stutter. I noticed that the CPU Package temp was reporting 0C for a few seconds before the jump. Then over the course of a minute, the temperature walked back to its normal value of mid 20's C idle where it's seemed to have behaved normally since. Almost seemed like an 8-bit underflow. Anyone else seen behavior like this? Didn't find anything on Google. The temperatures were obviously misreported and not real. I'd imagine it's on the motherboard since if the CPU sensed that extreme temperature, it'd shut down. Hopefully this is a rare glitch and not a sign of some hardware problem. One thing is that I updated the X570 chipset drivers a few days ago to 2.04.04.111 from AMD's website. I've kept my BIOS at version 1201 though which is from 9/12. I've debated updating the BIOS to 1407 (released on 4/10) but since things have been fast and stable, I haven't felt the need to risk it. Maybe I'll try it anyway over this weekend. Thanks for any advice!
