    The OEM cooler is barely adequate. Your temps look like it might not be seated correctly. Have a look at that and run CPU-Z to make sure the core voltage isn't too high. You've already got two cores thermal throttling which isn't good.

    IcemaN22: What CPU? Download the latest RealTemp version from a couple of posts ago and click on the Defaults button in the Settings window to see if that changes it. TJMax documentation does not seem to be 100% accurate.

    Anyone that doesn't like to see their multiplier jumping up and down should head to their bios and turn off SpeedStep and C1E or head into their Power Options and set it properly so these features work as intended.

    On my E6600 default TJ max accoring to real temp is 85 and on E8400 95.
    Both of them are around 35 degre idle, not sure what is wrong or correct...
    I used to follow this: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/intel-...ews-29460.html

    People need to ignore the data in that article, it's way off. Even if it was "fixed" it wouldn't really be fixed. *grumbles*

    Well Cpu-z is showing voltage is jumping around 1.152-1.232 around full load. As well I did cover the entire contact of the cpu with artic silver 5 with a flat edge, trying to get it as thin as possible. I just took a look at the instructions on artic's site and they suggest running a thin line across the cores and letting the heatsink spread it out properly and thin. I'll give that a try and hope it shows somewhat of a improvement.
