Speedfan reads the temps wrongly by exactly 15 degrees celsius, it's a known bug..

It's fixed with the Beta build of Speed Fan.

4.34 Beta 34

Have to register to get it, but it's dead on now that I have it.

Watch out for FPO/Batch L738B042. This stepping sucks. I got one today for test.
Vid = 1.325v
3.6Ghz (450x8) Stable @ 1.53v
475x7 also stable.
Temps are low for being at 1.53v. Around 60c load on all 4 cores.

But I´m getting a new one tonight. Same FPO/Batch + packdate. Hopefully its better. IF not, I just switch it for another one tomorrow with different FPO/Batch

If you download the Speedfan Beta 4.34 beta 34, the correct core temps are now correct. I have Vista 64 Ultimate and CoreTemp will not work on my Vista 64. That's why I use speedfan.

On a side note, my MSI mother overvolts the motherboard Vcore by about .02. If I set my Vcore to 1.3875 it will register 1.40-1.42v on Speedfan nd CPU-Z. The voltage on my ram is undervolted if my Vcore is set to 1.30v or less. At above 1.375v my ram overvolts my 1/10th of a volt. I guess it's just a quirk.
