Just a thought, From a few post around here and other forums it seems that the heat spreader on the core 2 duo may be the issue with the temps, Even when I am playing fair with no oc'ing, I am idle at 41 or so, well into the lower 60's when I prime. Now when you actually start playing, the temps get out of hand quickly, so we are held back by our phobia's of burning the cpu up, well I am atleast.
How long is the RMA process and is it something that could actually happen. I want lower temp reading but I dont want to lap the cpu to get them. SO lets say I verify that my heatspreader is concaved, is this enough for an rma, or even a recall?
