TjMax for all

[The Coolest]

Very nice!
Good to see Intel support 3rd party software.

And happy birthday to you!

Yes, indeed.
From what I gathered from the last presentation about the Nehalem is that the TjMax value is going to be programmed into the CPU's IA32_TEMPERATURE_TARGET MSR for accuracy's and ease of use sake.

I bet intel wont reveal the true TJmax and say a number that is like 10C lower than the real TJmax.

Why would they do that? There's no benefit for them in lying.

Incoming dumb question: What was all the talk about the recently newly adjusted TjMax then? My E8400 now used 100 instead of 105 in CoreTemp, as I'm sure you all know.

We only got values for the Core 2 45nm range, this time the information will also cover Xeons and 65nm parts.
