ordered some liquid pro thermal paste from germany to use on my 9700. hopefully that'll drop temps 5c, and then i can squeeze out another 100-200 mhz.

hi what cooling are you using?

ah well it is at 3.4!!! those temperatures are fine (atleast IMO), that puts the Tcase at 56 (71 - 15) doesnt it? intel say recommended 61c max . so that's fine... anyone like to confirm that's right for Tcase?

merlin, you can definitely drop your vcore back a lot, that'll make a big difference what kind of cooling are you using?

the fact the Tjunctions are different says otherwise. seems L2's run hotter?

allendale temperatures are different, hard to compare the two.

3.24 at 1.38v, 71c load in TAT/Coretemp. using a zalman 9700. makes me wonder if i put the damn thing on correctly

i've got a ds3 2.0 and my CPU temperature is lower than TAT, but that's to be expected since they're reading from different places. and the Tjunction is Tcase+15.. so.. i think that's right.... ill have to do some double checking (tat/coretemp vs easytune).. yar...

What are you comparing EasyTune to? If it's CoreTemp, are you using 0.95?

The next question is, when intel give a guideline of 60 degrees. is that cpu, or core temperature?

I'm not convinced. I think they're reading temperatures from different places.

intel was reporting higher temps. coretemp now agrees with it.

isnt easytune reading from a different sensor to the other software though? i thought easytune reads from a analogue sensor in the cpu, and the others are digital sensors in the core. comparing apples with oranges?
