Update: I have reinstalled the cooler and applied AC5 as suggested by this article: http://benchmarkreviews.com/in...1&limit=1&limitstart=5 [Last picture] The temperatures have now dropped by 5 C. Hopefully as AC5 cures over time, temperatures will decline further.

Thank you Bonzai for the most detailed reply. Well, I put all of the components inside ThermalTake's Tsunami which has fans on the front, side and rear. I used Xigmatek's HDT-S1283 cooler along with AC5. I changed the CPU Voltage (VCore) to 1.1 in the BIOS. RealTemp had the idle...

To all those who own an ASUS motherboard that utilizes the LCD Poster Have you had any problems with this device, its wires or connection to the motherboard? I own an ASUS Rampage Extreme and initially the poster was operating normally. However suddenly no messages are being posted...

Hello Bob I had some problem with my case hence I decide to 'bread board' my build until the new case arrives. I also replaced the stock cooler with a Zalman CNPS 9700 LED. Using RealTemp, the core temperatures are now 39, 40, 46 and 46 respectively. This is still quite high considering...

Hello sgrinavi Thanks again for the response. There are two voltage values in the BIOS: 1) CPU PLL Voltage and CPU Voltage. I take it both of these should be manually set. Realtemp shows values of 48,50,56 and 56 for each respective core at idle. I wonder if the CPU is damaged in some...

Hello Bonzai It is an X48 based mobo. Well, I updated the BIOS with the latest version that was downloaded from ASUS' website. Unfortunately the problem still persists. Thank you for the reply. Regards

Thanks for the response, sgrinavi. Rampage Extreme has a voltage light near the I/O panel. The light is green which means that the voltage is normal. I also checked the BIOS voltage values and they are also in the normal range. I also flashed the newest BIOS. Initially the temperature...
