Here is a comparison with my FX-55 with a MachII 404a moded by "Doctor" Ricky, running prime at around 3.350mhz with core at around 1.8V.



So, as you can see, DFI Cpu sensor (read by MBM, speedfan..) is not very trustable or accurate.

To check the good contact, better go to Bios and check the CPU temp - with the FX-55 at 1.8v I see around -11ºC with this MachII-404a.

Also note:
- The FX-55 at 1.8v produces a LOT more of heat than the A64 3000+ Winnie, thats why he only feels good at "Doctor" Ricky cascade running at 4.000Mhz
- Even runnig the fans at very low speed (almost no noise for 24/7) the MachII evap temp readings are very optimistic, with digital thermometer should be more like -50ºC idle and -40ºC load ..

So here it is my advise : enjoy your new 402 XTREME, as usual Chilly1 have done a very very good work, after all he is a XTreme Legend of Cooling
