    readings in the 80s can't be right though. Throttling and motherboard protection turn-off occurs there.

    I'm on watercooling, for 24/7 i use 1.4v actual, coretemp gives me load temps up to 58c. I checked contact and it's perfect, i got a nice flat IHS.

    Pentium D (HOTTER THAN CONROE) with this many volts loaded in the low 40s. You know something is wrong...

    You can't compare the 2... Conroes have a NEW scheme of temp monitoring that the P4's never had... The P4's had 2 internal diodes, one for us to read if your mobo supported it and one for thermal shutdown and throttling. The one we could monitor was located near the SURFACE of the core, in a cool spot relative to the hottest part of the core where the other diode is. Coretemp is essentially tapping into the hottest part of the core and it is very cool (no pun intended) to be able to see realistic readings. I find it hilarious how people have basically had their heads in the sand about ACTUAL cpu temps. Asus probe? Gimme a break that is as accurate as a blind man and a rifle. Welcome to reality folks.
