Cool .Thanks for that , I wont worry then .

Ok Ill make another attempt ,I'm still having this problem among other things ,but well deal with one at a time.All cores are threading properly ,the problem is that 3 and 4 core do not fall below 32 deg. C.So when I first boot I am seeing 1 and 2 cores temp. rising slowly from 22 deg. to idle...

Just installed a Noctua NH-D14 push , pull on to a Q9550 and # 3 and 4 cores read , at start up and idle 32 deg. celsius.When loaded they finally wake up , but when unloaded again they settle back down to 32.# 1 and 2 are reading 22 at idle and are fluctuating normally,as I am writing this there...

Walnutmon:Did u ever figure this out? This is one of those issues, that has been elusive for me also, and I am at my wits end.

Take all the advice you gave me absorb it. The cpu will be fine for a couple of weeks until I make a decision.I got what I came for ,my quads temp are fine and I guess thats all that matters rite now until I decide to push it.Thanks great advice.I'll recommend it to all My friends.

You raise some very valid points .I guess I should just stick to the conventional and not try to in Your words"Reinvent the wheel" After I thought of it minute the condensation thing popped up.I to am running a VRaptor.The push pull idea is interesting but gets away from my goal of keeping down...

Just to clear up some misconceptions, here are a couple of photos; http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/5720/h50post.png I'm really set against having a conventional cooler .There so obtrusive looking like something that should be in my furnace's plenum.There something to be said for the...

I think I'm going with the Corsair H50.The review that I seen showed on I7 stock Intel cooler at hi 80's at 100% load.H50 at mid 60's at 100%.Plus it cleans up the case quite nicely.Ya I'll have to pull the motherboard but that will give me a chance to route and sleeve the rest of the...

Yes that could have very well been the issue.Not a big fan of the push pins.The fan that came with the core duo the picture shown here / http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/1336/1002203p.jpg was different in that the raised ,circular ,copper is absent.This slite difference caused a bit of...

Repost the pic./ http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/7183/oldtemps.png hope this works

When the quad was first put in on friday it was running in high 60s low 70's.I should have kept the pic. your gonna have to take my word for it.All is well now though.Actually check the pic in the 8th reply it shows the readings before I fixed the problem .There are a couple of issues I would...

Oh ya suggestions for cpu coolers if u have the time Thanks

Thanks very much for the thorough reply.You can probably understand my skepticism when someone says ya go ahead no problem its fine with nothing to back it up.But and I don't mean to be disrespectful you said that there was no cause for concern when I first dropped the CPU in and temps were...

Well I fixed the problem and sure am glad I was persistent it payed off.I posted the temps.Thanks for your help http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/6595/awesometemps.png

Just copy and paste the url.I'm trying to figure out how I could by a cpu off the shelf with the required fan installed with proper air movement and get numbers like this?If u get the pics working I will send more of my rig.Should i see these numbers as soon as i boot up? I just cant help but...
