From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hi everyone,

I just just installed coolercontrol recently to control my gpu fan curve then i realized there is this nct6687 sensors which report some extremely high temp sometime even 100 Celsius. I tried the sensors. Which show that nct6687 still have really high temps. Is this normal? Or is my pc burning it self even though the air in the pc isnt hot at all.

Note: I use arch. My mobo is MSI B450M-A PRO MAX II. My gpu rx 580. My CPU r5 5500

Normal under load. Not normal at idle. Check the thermal paste if it's the CPU.

nctsomething is always the motherboard. the CPU is always a different sensor group
