Got good airflow in/out of the case? That can cause strange high temps and normal idle temps...
You'll be okay for now
Until you have time to lap you can turn down the vcore.
You should only need 1.1 to 1.15 to run at stock and that will help with the temps.
make sure and test stability with prime.
These do run hot. temps around 70C should not worry you with the i7.
But you are running too hot.
Try with the case open to see if that helps as you may need some more case fans.
Do you have a pic of your true mount. a remount may be in order as well.
that makes me feel slightly better! i think that i will lap it when i get back from india ^^
i just need to run like....something decent on it to see what the cpu usage goes up to =p
