Just got mine. But having problem with the high temp of CPU. They say it is the bios others is the airflow...this combo had a problem. Am gonna get a new CPU fan and heat sink and see if this will work.
I have a m3n78 and 7750 BE, Tacens Gelus II . Very happy with the combo.
But I had problems with the cpu usage (35 % idle!!, 45ºC-113ºF!!).
Simple but hidden solution: optimize for: throughput on Nvidia nForce 10/100/1000 networking Controller drivers settings.
Now the CPU idle temperature is 27ºC (79ºF), usage 0-2%
If optimize for is set :CPU, then happens the previous matter.
The usage is not really te issue here. The temp even in very low usage of each cores run around 58C-60C idle. But don't get me wrong this combo fast.
M3N78 mobo, Tacens Gelus II cooler and Tacens Tango case.
Maybe you need best airing or cooling.
I always see temps under 45ºC with 100% CPU usage.
Is a good performance.
I think is a very good combo, even without OC (I must try it out someday)
I have the same combo and notice the ASUS board says 1.36 volts and 50c, hardware monitor from CPU-Z reads 1.275 volts and 32-33c. There is a glitch somewhere.
