A few questions (680i + E6400)

Alright, I'm running at 3.2Ghz stable for 6 Orthos hours with voltage set at 1.38. At the moment trying to reach 3.4Ghz with voltage set to 1.42.

E6400, 680i, G.Skill DDRII800.

1.) About the temperatures:
Ambient temperature 27c, sometimes as high as 32c (Puerto Rico)

Tuniq Tower 120 on the CPU. Fan set to max speed.

At 1.38v Core Temp idles at about 53 each core, and climbs to about 74c with Orthos. I dont mind much since its perfectly stable, but I wish it was lower. It was worse before but it seems the thermal paste has settled.
FSB voltage is set to Auto which chose 1.4v. Should I leave it at that, or will I get better temperatures by lowering it to 1.3?

2.) I set the FSB to Memory speed ratio to Synch, and it choosees 2:1, 1600 to 800. If I choose 1:1 it hangs on bootup. Is this perfectly normal, or should it work fine 1:1?

More questions are coming. Right now I'm Orthos testing 3.4Ghz with voltage at 1.42v and Core Temp shows 77c and 76c per core.
