Q9550 OC - Good idle temps, high load temps?

[spyblog]

Have my Q9550 OC'd to 3.825ghz stable, but wondering about temps.

Depending on time of day it idles between 30-35 but full load (ie. P95) is between 59-65. Seems to me that is a fairly large increase from idle to load. Anyone know why? Would reseating my HSF and reapplying AS5 potentially help? I'm just not sure because my idle temps are fine.

Thanks

The onboard sensors were not designed to report proper idle temps.

That sounds about right, I don't see any problem with those temps.

I have seen my system running in those ranges with no problems.

Great, just wanted to make sure, thanks.

my q9550 maxes out at 70c in p95 and 87c in linpack, I'm not too concerned.
