Milamber: Thanks for posting that picture. I re-posted a link to that test today in the E8400 thread. Even with overwhelming evidence, some users still like having CoreTemp report their 45nm chips at least 10C hotter than reality. I hear things like, it's better to go with the higher temp because that is safer. I think they're afraid that RealTemp might be proven to be a big hoax next week or next year. I think my tests speak for themselves.
The picture you posted was of an older version of RealTemp that shows the Idle calibration factor used. Both cores of my E8400 need a minus 2 because it reads too high. Both cores read pretty evenly from idle to TjMax which seems better than many pictures I've seen posted.
In the near future, I plan to allow numbers after the decimal point for choosing correction factors. This should give XS type users a little more flexibility without scaring anyone off. Thanks for spreading the word about RealTemp. It has caught on well during the last couple of months, mostly through word of mouth.
