Default Mugen 2 Rev.b & Kaze Master Pro 3.5"

Hi,

I have the mugen 2 for about a year now, it's working fine, however lately, when the days here where I live started getting hot my CPU started reaching 70-80 Celsius when playing games (Idle at 40-50, normal work 45-60)

I purchased a new fan for the front of my computer case and with it I purchases the kaze master pro 3.5" fan controller.

The thing is, and I'm not sure if it's the Mugen 2 or the Kaze Master fault but the CPU temperature is completely off on the kaze master display.

I conencted the Mugen 2 Fan to the Kaze master and it shows the RPM correctly and I am able to control it but the temperature starts just right, maybe a few degrees higher than the CPU self sensor but in a few minutes it reaches around 100 Celsius while the inner CPU sensor still shows around 35 Celsius using a software such as AIDA64.

Now, this may have belonged in the forum about the fan controllers but from some reason I can't start a new topic there, it keeps ask me to log-in.

Anyway, the Temp1 sensor cable from the Kaze master is attached to the bottom "foot" of the mugen 2 heatsink.

In addition, I have another sensor cable attached to my power supply unit and 2 more just hanging in different parts of my computer case for general temperature messuring, all of which are around 100 Celsius as well while the highest individual temperature messured by AIDA64 is 54 Celsius for my GPU1 VRM (Whatever that means)

Am I doing something wrong, why are the messured temperatures so far off?

By the way, my CPU, if applicable is AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+, max temperature according to AMD website is 63 Celsius.

motherboard is Gigabyte M55S-S3 Rev2.0

I can't figure out what to do, the kaze master sensors makes no sense whatsoever, where on the mugen 2 should I position the sensor cable?

Thank you.

Please remove this topic, it seems the problem posting in the correct forums was due to needing Internet explorer 9 compatibility mode and the problem itself, well, so far it seems it was something with the jumper.
