My system with an ASUS A7A266 is showing higher temps that I believe, about 50 degree's C with a Swiftech 462-A heatsink and high output fan on it.

This is much cooler than my Alpha PAL6035, but still much warmer than I expected. Do you think that my motherboard sensor is way out of calibration, not that I could do anything about it except add another probe.

Could it really be that hot? This is with the case open and only 1.8 VDC on the core.
I have seen the temps as low as 125 degree's F. when the case is open and no real load on the CPU for a long period of time.

Mobo temp indicates about 85 degrees F. and the ambient room temperature is probably around 75.
