Hope I'm making sense. It just seems I'm missing something.
My evap idles at -54c and goes up to -51c under full load at 5ghz HT on.
There is only one reason that it is showing as -6c in Real Temp, that is because i'm running CPU PLL at 1.2v as opposed to 1.425v or even the 1.8v that you see peeps running. This only applies when i'm running Linx. If i run Prime Blend at 5ghz, then CPU PLL needs to be at 1.425v and the load temps in Real Temp then show as 10c/8c/8c/4c. This then shows a Delta of 61c under full load at 5ghz HT on. But of course the evap is still at -51c, which shows that even at this load the SS is coping easily with the load and can handle more.

Hope that clears things up for you a bit Norman.
