I just put together an Abit IP35 Pro XE board w/ a Q9650. Little problem is the Q9650 is unsupported on this board. Everything works and works well, but the cpu temperatures were reported as a steady 103*C. Coretemp reported ~41*C and went up and down depending on load. I emailed Abit about my problem.
Abit replied the Q9650 is unsupported.
I replied it works terrific in the IP35 Pro XE except for reporting cpu temperatures...
Abit TODAY gave me a beta bios (dated 09/25/08) for the IP35 Pro XE-E0-Q9650 temperature issue I had.
The bios Abit sent corrected the displayed temperature problem I had, and I am still running 9x450 happily!
