Wacky Temps
 

I just build a water cooling system and got an Abit NF7-S rev2 and I am running at 2.8ghz. My idle temp yesterday was 102 to 109F. Today... My idle temp s 84 to 86F. Now I do have a really nice water cooling setup that can get my sytem to these low temps no problem. but it was doing that with a xp1700.. Not a cpu that is 1.2ghz faster with a vcore of 1.95. Maybe it is reading the right temp now and was reading the wrong temp before, but whatever the case this is really wierd. Hopefully its the actual temps.

Here is a screenie of the temps and a hexus pifast run. The background is of my water cooling setup btw

What bios? What TIM did you use?

TIM is AS5 and bios is D26 Black Mantaray L12. The temps stayed the same after the bios flash.. That is until last night. The system has been together since last saturday. The 18 or 19th of september. So its been like 3 to 4 days. But i doubt that the AS5 settling in woudl provide that much of a boost in performance. Usually its a max of like 3C. Usually less. Whatever the case im happy as a clam. My max temp under load with Cpu burn-in is 95F. With a blazingly fast cpu never even hitting a 100F and having the loud noise in teh comp being the sound of a Small stream (water splashing around in the RES) I am a happy camper. (Pitches tent)
