    Could anyone answer my questions? Would the PSU be causing that much vcore drop or is it the mobo? If it is the mobo then is it ok to set a high vcore, lets say 1.5 volts just to get 1.43-45 volts when under load? Last, s it common to see a 10-8C diff. in core temps?

    1) It's the motherboard

    2) Yes, set the vcore higher in bios.

    3)Yes, it's common to have difference in temps. Check that you're hsf is seated properly.

    Thanks 4x4, Im getting my OCz Ram cooler today so maybe i will try re-applying AS Cremq. and re-seating my D-Tek fuzion block. I did scratch the bottom of my block when trying to seat it the first time, could i have damaged the copper base by scratching it which is affecting temps? Also, do you think that using AS5 will lower the temps any? I will post back later when i have more results.

    Thanks ... Scott
