How do these temps look?

Hey everyone,

Just upgraded to a Phenom II 965 (c3 stepping), I'm using a Noctua NH-C12P heatsink and was wondering if the temps seem normal or are to high?

Room temp was kept at 23c during all testing, temp readings are taken using CPUID Hardware Monitor, and are the CPU core temps. Case cooling is really good, case is a full tower with half a dozen 120mm case fans.

3.4 GHz 1.4v (stock)
Core Temp @ Idle - 33c
Core Temp @ 100% CPU - 49c

3.6 GHz 1.45v
Core Temp @ Idle - 33c
Core Temp @ 100% CPU - 51c

3.8 GHz 1.475v
Core Temp @ Idle - 33c
Core Temp @ 100% CPU - 55c

From what I have read around these and other forums, people seem to post 100% load temps around 10c lower then I'm seeing.

Thanks,
Dave
 
your voltage seems a tad bit high.. c3 stepping you should be able to get 3.8ghz a little lower then 1.475v probably some where around 1.44v.. might want to try lowering the voltage and stability test it and see how low you can get the voltage.. also check the temps with a second program like coretemp just to make sure cpuid is correct.. but either way the temps are perfectly fine if thats what you are seeing with p95/occt..
