That is because the readings came out accurate when tested with a different CPU.ĬPU temp readings from Speccy can be a hit or miss, although it is pretty reliable for other hardware interpretations. So, initially, it looks like Speccy gave the values in Fahrenheit, which does not seem logical either.

Oddly enough, the Fahrenheit equivalent of 33☌ is 91.4°. In contrast, the reading on the same machine was 33☌ from Core Temp.

From Ver 1.12.1 onwards, Core Temp can show correct CPU temp readings for most AMD CPUs.Īs per our testing on an AMD Ryzen 7 Pinnacle Ridge, Speccy claimed the idle CPU temp to be around 92☌. On the other hand, alternatives like Core Temp had the same problem that eventually got fixed. Note that they have pushed minor updates after the release of the 2×00 series, but the issue persists to date. Unfortunately, it has almost always been like that, presumably because of ignorance from Piriform, the manufacturer of Speccy.

But when it comes to CPU temps, Speccy does not tend to get along.
