Antminer's reports of temp are NOT Celsius they are Fahrenheit.

Same for Awesome miner the temps are NOT Celsius....

Americans just don't get it....

ZERO Celsius = 32 F  (oopps yes I wrote 42 at first)

So when you boards are reporting 80C ....do you really think that they are 174F...are you mining in a bakery oven?

WELL, lets educate everyone.....
Awesome miner is in Deg C.  If you click on a miner, then you click on the summary tab on the bottom.  You will see a list and at the bottom is CHIP TEMP  79/74/79 Deg C   It actually has this!
If you click on the ASIC tab you will see  ASIC 0 1 and 2    you will also see a temperature listed like 68, 61, and 70 Deg C  This is THE BOARD temp

If you doubt that it is in Deg C - I have a Rapberry pi with a temp sensor monitoring the exhaust temp.  It is around 44 Deg C  Since 79 deg is Not Deg F ( IE Slightly above room temp) this is Deg C for absolute SURE!

Furthermore I can understand why people would not know, or think other wise.  I used to think the same, because there was no Deg C written on awesome miner before, it was just a number. an update fixed that.

ALSO if you think about computer electronics like GPU mining, 70 Deg C is not that hard to believe.  if that was Deg F,  then Why the F*!$ is my house getting so hot!  :-)
