Conroe FAQ'S!!! Read this before posting
As Conroe and Allendale starts to get retail, we see tons and tons of new posts always referring to the same questions and keep spamming the Intel forum.

http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...splay.php?f=70 (water cooling)
(Thanks sierra_bound)
Q: OMG my Conroe is burning up!
A: Most temp monitoring software is WAY off, especially Coretemp, and the Intel Badaxe is notorious for reporting ridiculously high temps. But you might want to check contact to be safe, because many Conroes have concave IHSs and need to be lapped.
(Thanks Absolute 0)
If your question is anything else, do not make new post yet, please try the SEARCH option before.
**Edit** Well rather or not this reference should be a sticky, as many new member didn't read sticky anyway, it should be very nice to link this thread to any "annoying thread" here. So in that way we don't totally ignore new members and MAYBE this will let them understand to do their homework before posting anything.
Well that's all for now. Feel free to enter other annoying questions with link to answer
BTW sorry for my bad english!
