How comfortable you are with your system and/or IT in general:
- I'm kind of lost, honestly
- I know what's up, I could help you run some commands or checks
- My machine is fully under my control, tell me what you need
- I attended Defcon last year
Problem
The temperature on the UI is struck at 129C when my system is reporting around 70C.
System details:
Mac Book Pro, 6-Core Intel Core i7
macOS Catalina 10.15.7
Attached is the screenshot while running powermetrics --samplers smc |grep -i "CPU die temperature"
command.
We rely on https://github.com/sebhildebrandt/osx-temperature-sensor for temperature readings on macOS... Do you happen to have Node installed so we could verify it's a bug there?
Thanks for the reply. Get well soon my friend!
I just checked, on macOS 11.3.1. Here's the result of the NPM package:
{
main: 86.75,
cores: [
76, 77, 69, 76,
67, 71, 129, 129
],
max: 129
}
So it looks like eDEX-UI is taking the max temperature instead of the main one :)
Yeah but... that's what we want. The problem is two cores are reporting to be at 129°C, which is impossible because they would be literally melting.
I'll look into where this info is read from...
Ok I understand u now
