Well I am about to snap. No matter what I do, what I try, I cannot seem to get decent and even temps on my Q6600 G0 using the Ninja Rev B. with a 72 CFM fan on full. The CPU is running at 3GHz so all I did was OC the FSB to 333 and kept the multi at 9. My Vcore is the ONLY volt I increased? all others are the lowest I can place on my board. I raised my volts to 1.225.
My idle temps are 38c, 36c, 28c, 31c. Under load if I let it go for hours with two instances of Orthos or Prime I can get the first core to 61c and others are between 57 and 50, and 47.
Asus P5KE-Wifi is my board. I am using 4 x 1024 PC26400 RAM stable at its rated 4-4-4-12 speed. Using just one WD 500GB drive SATA. One DVD-RW, and one ATI X1950XTX. PS is an OCZ 650 all housed in an Antec 182 SE case.
Anyhow I have installed, removed, installed, removed, installed removed my CPU and HS/FAN 1000 times. I have applied the AC5 at least 20 times trying everything from the recommended way, to my way, to his way, to her way etc. I tried 3 different fans. I went and ordered an aftermarket mounting kit to replace the stupid push pins of the Ninja Rev B?. I got this kick ass kit which essentially installs a backplate, and 4 large bolts with springs and the Ninja is now 100 times more secure and tight but still, not one degree of difference between the regular push pins and the new setup and still the difference between cores.
I have not lapped either the CPU or HS but man I have checked them at least 10 times for any sight of convex or concave surfaces and both look actually good. I cannot see any irregularities. I have used 3 different methods to judge it.
So? uh? is it me, the Ninja or what?
