    I'm using a thermalright 120u, its STOCK idle temps are about 30-35 (usually lower than the chipset!)... Load, its about 40-45.. sadly I did a rush job putting the thermal paste on as I had something to do, so I may reseat it when I cba...

    What about everyone else? I may ahve to get overclocking this f*cker

    Not stock setting at 3.2GHz but it runs 26C to 29C idle depending on how hot it is in the room. Under load 35C to 38C. I use a Vigor Gaming Monsoon 2 Peltier Cooler.

    depending on room temp, it was pretty low idle like 35C, loaded in folding was only 42C, Oced to 2.88GHz stock volts it was +4C only, this is with an Ultra120X and low rpm fan

    edit - my bad the above is for an E6600

    Your loads can't be that low. When all 4 cores are loaded up 100%, my temps easily go up 20C. And there's no way a Quad core on air idles below 30C. Use CoreTemp 0.95 or SpeedFan 4.32 to get the proper readings.

    I'm on a Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme w/ Scythe "F" 120mm fan + Ceramique. SpeedFan 4.32 Idle 44-45C, Full load 67C.

    My temps are the same as SilverFox's, 42c-45c idle and 65c-67c under FULL load.
    When i'm just playing a game like Titan Quest, my temps never go over 52c.
    I'm also using the Thermalright 120 extreme, 65cfm Fan.

    To all the guys up there with the low temps, what revision did you guys get on your cpu's?
    B3 or G0?

    I've heard and read that the Monsoon Peltier cooler is actually a bit worse than the ultra 120 extreme, any truth to that?

    Thx.

    If that is correct, then that's amazing!
    What revision is your quad cpu?
    What temp program are you using?

    Thx.
