    Yeah, but you're using the ++ correction factor. The reason 100*C Tjmax was originally selected by most programmers is b/c of idle temp readings relative to ambient. So CT may be indeed be correct at idle, but at load it would be off by ~5*C b/c of an incorrect Tjmax. RT should be correct at load, but needs the correction factor to be accurate at idle. Again it goes back to the theory that DTS doesn't scale linearly.

    Seems to work well with vista64. Shows temps within 1C compared to U-Guru.

    Idle temp calibration also affects load temps

    0 calibration
    55-52-56-51

    ++ calibration
    56-55-57-53

    EDIT:
    To be on the safe side, im opting to use ++ calibration even it affects my load temps.

    I request again, if possible, to have an idle calibration separate for any core, in order to correct my DTS sensors in E8400 that work but one of them is very badly calibrated.

    Thanks,

    Thanks,
    +1. thanks for all your testing so far and looking forward to your Q6600 G0 results.
