You sure the heatsink is seated right? Maybe the thermal compound not applied correctly? When I got the new board that I tried it without taking off the AM2 retention bracket I tried it on air and with my 9950 @ 3.2 GHz @ 1.4v I saw about 55šc full load with the factory Heatsink.
Couple of questions
1- What is more or less your ambient temp?
2- what are you using to monitor temps?
3- What were your load temps before the TRUE?
