When overclocked to 4ghz, at idle the cores are still 37/54 and loaded they reach 59/59.
It's actually quite bothersome. Oh well, what can you do?
I guess we just have to learn to ignore the temps we are so programmed to watch.


EDIT: This just in, Temps are 37/54 @ 4.2Ghz...... What a surprise!!!
hehehe...you have the same problem that i had with my 1st 9650...OH, how i wish i stayed with it!

i had the 1st 9650 replaced and my 2nd 9650 is crap with overclocking beyond 4200 mhz...WAY to much heat from the cores and heat produced through the PWM circuit feeding it the power.
