I had an A7V... what a pain in the... nevermind that. It was one of the early revisions, so it had the thermosistor on a wire (like compunurse). I would get ridiculous temps until I read a tip that said to plug the thermosistor into the header for the PSU temperature (I don't even know why that was on the mobo). Instant 10-15 degree (F) drop. Hmmmm :P

Asus basically fudges the core temp since they know that the thermosistor in the socket doesn't actually measure the temperature of the core.
