    I agree, try coretemp or speedfan or better yet both. If this ends up being the case then I will wait no longer to order a Q6600 regardless of the stepping.

    If storm block isn't a good performing watercooled setup then that means all of us on air should give up on quads...

    G0 just cannot possibly be this bad, and I doubt even a low end watercooled kit can be this bad.
