At least you've tried the other method, or you're so categoric just because you "feel" that your method works best because you've always used it?

I have, it sucks in comparison. Why can't people follow simple instructions published by the company who actually makes the product?

Well if we did that no one would be overclocking their chips

LOL, good point. I used the line method and get the temps in my sig.
