Last week got my P35-T2R LP delivered, put it all together and started her up. All was fine, as I also got a Ultra 120 Extreme (for later), but i looked in the BIOS and the temps were 45 stock!!!. Had a look at the volts and the board had OVERVOLTED THe CPU TO 1.5v. So I changed them back to stock. I think this issue has been fixed in later BIOS revisions, but if anyone is thinking about this board just be careful. BTW the volts setting where at AUTO when I first started the computer.
 
Sometimes motherboards do this. Best to load defaults then tweak these types of things down to reasonable levels early.

From a Newegg review of the IP35-E
Be VERY cautious when installing a new CPU in this motherboard to check and see what it automatically sets its speed to. With my P4 (stock cooler mind you) it overclocked it to a ridiculous 6.256GHz AUTOMATICALLY. Its a miracle the processor survived. Minimum clock speed is 4.60GHz for me now.

It makes me chuckle every time I read it. 🙂
