I noticed awhile back in this thread some people were complaining about the power temp going to high. I had the same problem with my quad core in. Runs alot cooler with the dual core. Quad under full load was going well into the 50c range. I still havent found any good info on this but my guess is it is for the 16phaze power design. I added a 120 fan blowing around the CPU area and i can now keep that temp to depending on room temp 41c to 44c under full load with my quad. I still am wondering where exaclty that sensor is and if maybe adding some ram heat sinks might help the issue ...anyone have any thoughts on this ..Thanks
EDIT:was thinking about this after my post Some people have complained about not being stable with the power temp over 45c, Mezzro When going over 420 FSB on your overclock is your power temp below 45c? Maybe this is the cause for the FSB wall
