Hello,

I recently assembled my pc and installed Hardware Monitor.
When I opened it up I noticed that the 'k' was missing from my i5 4690k and that the temps on it was 10 degrees Celsius off ASUS AI Suite.

Does anyone know what is going on?

The i5 4690K is a relatively new CPU so it most likely isn't fully supported by HWMonitor yet hense the missing "K". As for the temps, that could also be related to not being fully supported. Although if I recall, when I had an ASUS board my temps were also different between the two, one could just be wrong or one is reading the max/lowest temp and not the average.
