Just got one myself and CPU temp is sky high compared to what i used to get with my P35-T2R, 20-23C idle, 44C load at 4000Mhz vs 38C idle / 55C load at stock freq
Could it be because i can't mount the damn TRU properly because of that lame NB heatsink? I have no where to put the fan other then at the top of the case, which of course sucks no air as there are no options up there. Anyone modded their NB heatsink yet to get rid of the thermalright stuff ?
Another thing. Any idea why my PC reboots instantly the moment i try to start Everest? I don't know if it's because of the 4870's or the mobo
If you grind 1/2in off the rear of the top shelf of the NB HS, you can mount the TRUE horizontally. Only takes a couple minutes if you have a bench grinder or a dremel will do it at tad slower.
You have to have Everest 4.20 or newer or it will reboot.
