How are you guys keeping your N/B temps down on your non SE boards. If I try to run 400 fsb my N/B temps go up over 52 deg. while stressing with Prime95. From what I read at the start of this thread you should not let it go over 47? I have a thermal sensor on mine ran to the front panel. With a 3.2Ghz overclock on my Q6600 (356x9) it runs at 45 deg while stressing, and 40 idle. I'd like to try 400x8, or maybe 3.6ghz once my ultra 120 extreme gets here, but the N/B temps worry me. Don't want to fry this thing.
