My temps are below 65C for CPU and below 60 for the two cores at 1.4V. I guess I had a bad chip since most can get around 3Ghz at stock volts.
your not alone buddy, my e2140 needs more volts to get stable at 3ghz. 1.38v to be exact, depending on ambient temp, core temps loaded are ~65c both cores.

i've tried going above 375fsb but everytime i do, it won't post no matter how much voltage i give it, plus i'm concerned about temps so i didn't go further on it. we'll see when i get back into watercooling though .
