MCP is the chipset (GeForce 8200), so it measures the chipset temperature. GPU is the temperature of your video card (GeForce 9600 GT).

On your motherboard Aux is actually the CPU temperature. We'll fix the temperature labelling (and also the voltage values) in the next EVEREST version.

hi ,i have my temp on aux 122c and i never knew that it was bad or something i use the motherboard for now like 3months and everything is fine with that 122c on aux
but what does that aux mean?(i have asus p5kc)its definetly not the psu cous i had same reading with old one.maybee its steam processors or something? plz help thnx.

In the case you have an Asus P5KC, then the Aux reading is a bogus value and should be ignored.

Hi !
I'm new here, and dont know if I'm posting in the wright place...

I want to ask about the "AUX temp"

I have an ASRock P4i65GV mother board with an Intel Morgan Hill i865GV chipset and a Intel Pentium 4, 3000 MHz CPU
Two ram memory cards from Kingston, total 1024 Mb (PC3200 DDR SDRAM)
Onboard Intel 82865G Graphics Controller + nVIDIA GeForce 6200 (256 Mb) at AGP slot

CPU Thermal Throttling is ENABLED at Bios Setup Utility/CPU Configuration
EVEREST v.2.20.405 reads the following:
Mth.Board: 21ª C
CPU: 37 / 40º
Aux: 47 / 52º
GPU: 31º
HDisk 1: 33º
HDisk 2: 34º
I have recently added two more fans to my case. This makes three 8cms sided fans plus the alluminium dissipator over CPU.

BUT SYSTEM CONTINUES TO SHUT DOWN. WHY ??

I suppose it's because the enabled feature of the BIOS. But would like to know if AUX temp. is related to this.
Also, what is AUX temp. in this ASRock mother board ?
Maybe there is another unknown problem ?

Thanks a lot

I think Aux temperature is a bogus reading on your board. The shut downs may be caused by not overheating, but a power supply failure. P4 3.0 and faster processors draw a lot of power, and they quickly make cheap value PSUs go wrong.

Thanks for answering, Fiery.

Could be PSU, although was bought new last week (as well as motherboard).
The fact is I had a crash (or whatever is called when components burn) while closing the system correctly. PSU, motherboard and one of the HDD were burnt. All three were replaced brand new. ASRock mb has this "throtltling feature" which the previous Foxcoon 865A01 hadn't, and never before, during four years with P4, happened this sudden shut downs. They make me CRAZY !

PSU is "Media Magic" brand, if this says anything to you, 500W, 12v supporting intel V12 version2.0, Magneist technology and upgrade circuit sustaining greater loading with higher conversion rate, SATA support port, super mute 12cms. fan with low noise design, auto adjusting equipment on speed prolonging the using life......ALL THIS INFORMATION is provided in the package box. I am not an expert, so please tell me, do you think this is a really cheap value fan ? It cost me 15 euros.

Anyway, I'll check up tomorrow with the retail shop. See what they say.
If you have any NEW SUGGESTIONS I'll be glad to read them.

Thanks again !

Sir what does my Aux mean in my motherboard? I have an ECS A780GM-A v1.0 motherboard and I don't know what my Aux reading is all about. Thank You and more power

It could either be the CPU temperature, the motherboard temperature, or an invalid reading. Try to compare the values against BIOS Setup values; or run EVEREST System Stability Test and see how Aux and the other temperature readings change under heavy system load.
