New I7 920 I just picked up from NewEgg last week. Leaving all voltages at auto and only changing bclk to 180 (3.6 GHz) I get idle temps of high 50s and around 90 running Prime 95. Ive tried it at 18x200 and it does the same. Stock clock at defaults is around 45c and still hits high 70s, low 80s under prime.
I'm using a Coolermaster V8 and I have removed and reinstalled to make sure Im getting good contact and I am.
Is this common or is this just a bum chip? Its stable even with the higher temps but dang, those are cigarette lighter temps! Anyone else run into this?
