ps. BTW, TC's stink for accuracy. Their only positive point are inexpensive and a very wide temperature range.

Wow man, who busted out the crack today???
T/C's stink?? I can get some lab calibrated T/C's with +/- .01C accuracy. I can get standard grade T/C's with +/- .1C that are calibrated....
You think Thermistors are accurate??? ahhahahahahahahah they change value by how much wire or solder is used to connect them to the reader.
EMC, I have seen 4 XP's read 4 different temps on the same board, same Vcore, same HSF, same thermal paste and same ambient temp. By a differences of 5C +/- Same batch XP's even Same thermal paste application method, same fan RPM.
SO you tell me whats so accurate about them? Also what about AMD's claim that they havea +/- tollerance of 3Deg C?
T/C's are not accurate.. hahah thanks that was funny
Edit: I am talking about Thermistors that Geeks are using just FYI, I know lab Thermistors, Thermal Diodes, Thermal Transitors, adn T/C's are in an entirely different ball park than what geeks use.
