Heat probs reported for Intel E8400s

[informal]

Why is an annoyance? If my E8400 is rock stable with a moderate voltage but the reported temps are too high, I'm perfectly fine since it's stable.

On a moderate voltage it's ok,BUT some people are considering putting more than 1.45V(which in and on itself could cause electromigration effect after long periods of time and damage the chip,even without taking the temperatures in consideration).So the temp. readings are important,but as Bail_w said in his post,the heatsink of his cooler felt cold so the chip probably has either the bad IHS contact and therefore bad heat transfer ,or the temps. are simply misreported(which could just annoy some people who are used to knowing every little detail in their precious system,and i personally can't blame them)
