Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Mine runs at 80c for days at at time with no problem. core0~=80, core1~=77, core2==~77, core3~79. _IF_ all four of your cores are running 100% something is screwy about your heatsink, except you have very nice low temps so something is good about your setup, too.

Hey, can anyone tell me what Speedfan v4.33 Temp1 and Temp2 are on a Gigabyte GA-G33M-DS2R mobo? Temp1 may be the NB, on which I have a fan so it stays relatively low, but Temp2 can go nuts under load so I'd like to get some cooling on it whatever it is. The four cores are okay.
I have to thank all of you for helping to solve my FATAL ERROR: Rounding was . problem. Indeed, when I increased Vcore to bios 1.450 (droops to 1.328 loaded by Orthos), my system now runs Orthos error free. The intensified Vcore necessitated the addition of a side-panel fan to keep CPU Tcase...
