EVGA 680i high CPU core temperature solution found.

I was overclocking my E6600 however temperatures were completly out, even checked with Intels TAT and they were more less identical to speed fan. Turns out that the CPU core voltage is AUTOMATICALY increase as the FSB is increased. At 3.0GHz I was hitting 65C under orthos load with a storm block, the voltage was set to 1.4V. Ive backed it down, temp is 47C at 1.232V (reading from CPUz).

Yup, it does all the voltages when you o/c... its all auto.. kinda neat unless you dont know its doin it.

my 6600 @ 3.6 isnt stable unless i have 1.438 in ntune w/ 1.4375 making it.
I was able to do 1.41 with my abit at 3.6 stable.....

with my 680 @ 1.4375 i get 80c in coretemp after just 10 min of orthos Blend test.... lame.

This is with a zal9500. I ordered a lapping kit, pretty sure my ihs is wack...
