Hello!
If you take CoreTemp, which temps you have?
You saw maybe my posts with my temps...?
Friendly greetings!
EDIT:
I saw you use Arctic Silver 5...
How you used it...
You took only a small piece to the heatsink, or to CPU too?

Asus Probes reads 56-57c, Coretemp reads 80-82c. I believe the difference (anybody correct me if I am wrong) is that Probe's reading comes from a thermal diode in the cpu package the same as the bois hardware monitor does, and Coretemp is reading the DTS information directly from the cpu. My understanding is that tthe DTS information is actuallly a more accurate reading of the actual cpu die temperature.
As far as the AS5 goes, I have lapped both my cpu and the bottom of the TTBT cooler that I use (I did not see much difference between lapped and non-lapped temps, but was making other changes at the same time, so did not have a direct A-B comparison). I usuallly apply the AS5 to the surface of the cpu and then spread it out by using the edge of a credit card (a razor blade works well also) back and forth until I have a very thin, smooth coating of AS5 across the entire face of the cpu I then mount the heatsink and remove it to check if I have the paste transferred evenly from the cpu to the heatsink, ensuring that the mounting is even and I have enough paste to join both surfaces. You want to use as little paste as possible while still assuring full contact between the cpu and heatsink. When this looks right, I than use the credit card again to carefully smooth the compound out on both the cpu and heatsink, and do the final mount.

But hey...msattler....doesn't that give you razor thin performance margins???

If you are asking my if my OC is on the edge, the answer is YES. If I raise the fsb only 2 mhz, it will start to reboot every couple of hours. Currently it will only reboot mebbe once a day, but still does not generate errors while Seti crunching.

As CPU cooler I'm using Thermalright Ultra 120 with Noctua 1200rpm fan. I have in PC Probe II about 43°C in full load and Core Temp tells me that cores have about 60-67°C thats ok I thing (Tjunction is 100°C).
With case you are right I must do something with airflow. Now I have 1200rpm intake and 800rpm outtake fan. And it's not enought I think.
Fast,faster,the fastest crunching... (by Intel) ;D
P.S. How fast you are going with QX6700? And with how high Vcore? I tried 3.2GHz @ 1.4V (QX6700 B3 revision ES)
Thanks

Nice! ;D :o
I'm running at stock speed on the same board and the highest speed which I reached was 3500MHz 350x10, ram was at 450/900 ddr speed, 4-4-4-12 timings vcore 1.45 was set in BIOS. It has problems after few hours of ORHTOS Prime test.
I will try add some volts ;)
But I have worries about cooling I'm using Thermalright Ultra 120 with 1200rpm Noctua fan.
Your CPU must produce much more than 130W on stock ;D. What cooler do you use?
I love this machine, it's performance is incredible.
