I have HDT-S1283 but I'm not sure I have it mounted too well as the heatpipes don't seem to warm up.

I got almost identical results... go figure, since I have an x3350 with a 1.20 vid on an ip35 pro What are your cpuvtt, mch, ichio, and ich?

btw, notice that our temps are very similar, too. I believe that graysky is using coretemp's 105c tjmax assumption instead of realtemp's 95c tjmax. Will verify with him and report back.

Here are my #'s:
