Well, I'll start my ownthread so I don't have to hi-jack somebody else's thread. Anyway, here's an estimate of my temps:
Idle:
27-30 with CoreTemp/Everest (average of 27 in BIOS)
Load (during game):
58-62
Load (running Orthos for a half-hour, blend-test):
Reached 75 (I know that's not good at all >.<
I have an e6750 @ stock settings, with an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro. I didn't apply any thermal paste on my own, because I was told it's not necessary, because the ACF7 already has MX-1 pre-applied on the thermal pad. Also, there were some fan settings in the BIOS that are enabled (the fan on the hs/f doesn't spin until it needs to), but this shouldn't affect it, should it? Could the cause be a hs/f not properly seated? If it's not, and I have to re-seat it...should I wipe the pre-applied thermal grease off and apply some AS5?
