Hi guys i just want to make sure my temperatures are correct. I think mine are too high, after installing the past three time in the last three days and three different types. I came to conclusion CORE2DUO generates extreme heat. Following are my water cooling specs:

E6300 @ 3.359 Vcore 1.36
CPU Block = D-TEK Fuzion 1/2 ID barbs.
8800GTS @ Stock right now.
GPU BLock = MCW60 in the same loop.
Swiftech's MCR320 Dual 3 x 120mm radiators. with Sick Yaat Loon fans on the top of the case.
MCP655 Radiator
Swiftech's Micro Reservoir.
Swiftech's Hydra Coolant with Distilled Water.


TEMPERATURES:

CPU IDLE = 35C LOAD= 48-50C
GPU IDLE = 38C LOAD= 45C


I am so confused why in the world temperatures are so high. I tried Three different pasts AS5, Generic, Cremique, etc, but temperatures are almost same except generic is above 50c in load.

I checked the contact, and i will post the picture later also. The contact is good, and my radiators are also on the top of my case. I mean spending $400 for water cooling and getting these type of temperatures are beyond my understanding.

I am thinking it could be the coolant? The cooling should be enough, 2 radiators MCR320. But i checked at extremesystems people are also getting same temperatures at aroung 3.4GHZ - 3.6GHZ.

So can you guys please post your temperatures, so i can match it.

You can use this format copy and paste and just fill it up.

Are you getting your values from CoreTemp or the motherboard's sensor?

How does it run at stock? It could be bad IHS contact.

My Opty 165 seems to have bad IHS contact, ~50 deg load @ 1.45V (coretemp), and ~40 deg load according to the motherboard's sensor @ ~30 deg ambient.
