Today 36C in my 2500XP@2800 1,75V. Usually 37C, but I'll try to lower it in 2C with the ducting mod and a fan pushing fresh air into it.

Edit: using Silent boost HS+Smart fan II@2600rpm

I still find some of the temps to be unbelievalbe or off. I understand the 1.0v one being so low, but with m SK7 and 80mm fan at 3300RPM My idle is 41C, or around 7C above my mobo temp.

Thats awesome. What HSF are you running?

EDIT: Jeez your running @ 1volt!?

heh yeah, i love that nforce2 real-time voltage changing proggy. before i was limited to 1.4v minimum, now its 1.075 :D although i have to load windows (and the program) to drop to that voltage.

passively cooled with just the side intake max temp was 38C (could probably be passively cooled *without* the side intake at that kind of vcore)

obviously i dont run that kind of frequency/vcore anymore because the novelty has worn off :p

Yes sir it is. I've used 3 dif temp progs as well as a 5'25" bay insert with manual temps and actually I just for the first time went from 13x166 ---> 11x200 and its 33idle / 38 load and case temp stands @ 27. I guess I just got lucky with my stock hsf =) gonna go 220 fsb in a few but my 2100 is limiting it a lot.

The 3 different temp programs get the reading from the same exact place. I don't know where you placed the thermistor for your manual temps but believe me, they are wrong. You can't "get lucky" with your stock HSF. They perform the exact same barring any huge difference in thermal grease. The fact is, that MOBO is reading the temp wrong.

Yeah, this isn't Excelsior's mom.

Sorry, couldn't resist.... See cases & cooling, Antec Overture thread.

14C? That's 57 degrees F!
That would actually feel COLD if you touched it. I guess when you turn on the computer, the processor gets colder, unless your house temp is in the 20's, 30's or 40's...or the mobo seriously misreads the temp.

Well mine runs at absolute zero under full load.

Mine must be wrong too,.... I get 33c. cpu and 23c. mb temps first thing in the morning. It's about 65f. in the basement. Full tower case, 4 80mm case fans, CoolerMaster Aero 7+ cranked up to 3900 rpm and AS3 on a 2500+ running at 200x11 and 1.75v.
