dfi x48 t2r. i expect all my temps to be higher than the average you see online. cos i live in the tropics. ambient is already 28C. i just need to know if it is too high. cos i just upgraded from a 2.8C Northwood last week (yes i know its old :P) and idle temps were mid 40s @3.3GHz..

readings from CoreTemp btw. and yes, the whole heatsink doesnt feel warm at all.

im running my 8500 at 4.35GHz (3.16stock) at 1.33V. ambient temp is 28'C, idle temp is 54'C, load is ard 65'C. up to 69 on prime. most importantly im running TRUE120 with >70cfm through it. unlapped. are my temps too high?
