i might be wrong but it might be the total average usage percent of all of them?

Makes sense but dont think its that as its updating real quick but it said like 37 31 31 32 and it showed CPU 37

Unless its updating too fast and it has a bit of a delay idk

CPU is the package temp. Core temps are...core temps.

for the purpose of overall temp measuring I believe highest temp is the most important one, core temp works the same way. will show temp of each core but on taskbar the number is always the highest.
dont think it's package because it doesnt make sense for package to = the temp of one of your cores

For AMD the temp to go by is the core temp. For Intel, you go by package temp.

/e Actually Intel is probably either or.

Another question

I've put fans on auto which reach around like 50C on average when playing PUBG with gpu on high performance (1070)

I saw if I close software, it remove the automatic fan

I dont wanna keep the program open, so If I click "apply" and "apply at start up" does it become on auto everytime without starting the program manually?

Cuz i'd assume so but I dont think I hear the fans more idk

Yeah its not working without loading msi

I was on pubg, alt tabbed, open speccy, gpu at 65

Open msi, gpu goes down to 51 on auto 2 mins later

I believe there is a setting in MSI Afterburner that says: Apply overclocking settings at Startup.


They should not have included the word overclocking, but all it means is w/e settings you set in Afterburner, will be applied when you boot the computer.
After you tell ASfterburner to: Apply overclock settings at startup, then you won't have to manually open Afterburner every time you reboot.
