Guys today i`ve bought the Mobo and now i check the temps 50 degrees is the mobo temp:eek: and the cpu which is set to 4Ghz and default voltage is about 65 degrees :eek: :eek: I cool the system with home made water cooling and checked how the cpu block is placed and its good placed and the grease(AS5) is ok too.Now default freq and 1.2voltage 43-4 deg in idle mode :confused:
It seems that owners of asus P5W DH get higher temps but some don't trust anymore asus probe
My temps with it are 38° CPU and 47° MB with 27.8° ambient
I 've applied AS5 on NB and have a 120 mm fan blowing at .
Not only the PC Probe.Everest shows same temps, bios too.Tomorrow i`ll go and buy something to measure the real temps
they all read from the same sensor.Quote:

I got two 80mm front intake fans, one rear exhaust and one top exhaust fan running full speed.
What is your ambient temp ?Quote:

an yes: the NB is very hot. use a fan and u ll be at 36°C instead of 50°C. but not the included asus-fan. ;)
How do I check that? My GPU doesn't report ambient temperature (don't know why). Room temp is 28C so I guess that ambient would be 30-32CQuote:
