Hi
I just built a 16 core rig with of two Xeon CPUs, e5-3670 running at 2.6GHZ.
I followed this guide

but I'm using a 750 watt PSU and a pair of cheap Article cooler Alpine 20

My question:
the H/W monitor of my board reports the CPU temperature between 59 to 63 degrees Celsius, I think that's waaaaay higher than it should be.
do you think I have a bad mobo? bad CPU's?
