IT IS that good, Scythe Infinity/Ninja/Mine and some more coolers also. And I didn't observe temps BELOW ambient on any of E4300/E6300. Instead I can observe ambient with very precise lab digital thermometer and it's ALWAYS lower than core 0/1, CPU/SYS (whatever it means) or HDDs through SMART. Ambi...

And why NOT??? It's only a name and you don't answered the question... Not to be rude, but I can rename ANY executable WITHOUT such effects. It's probably author's joke, but if NOT - it might be infected with a virus, which is more dangerous than renaming an executable.

Thank you for your post. But I can't agree. i would not rely too much on this post over at the thg forums. there are a lot of misinterpretations in it! Well, tens of thousands of users cannot be ALL wrong... And this is not the site for tech noobs, so most of them have enough knowledge to test these...

From http://forumz.tomshardware.com/hardware/Core-Duo-Temperature-Guide-ftopict221745.html (E) Any hardware and / or software may misreport Tcase and / or Tjunction temps. (F) 965 chipsets may misreport Tcase and Tjunction temperatures with +/-15c offsets. and (I) C2D’s manufactured with conc...

There is some more light here, http://forumz.tomshardware.com/hardware/Core-Duo-Temperature-Guide-ftopict221745.html I'm afraid, that all guessing about steppings/Tjunctions (100C or 85C) isn't necessary. I have no idea about E4300 CPU/Core temps lower than ambient, mentioned before in this thread, ...

Why is it incorrect? Because I CANNOT BURN MY FINGERTIPS, touching heatpipes in the nearby of the CPU - when CoreTemp 0.95 tells 80C, and BIOS (through PCProbe) tells even more on CPU temp sensor. Physics is not only a theory, it's practice also and this is very simple "real world" test.....

TAT says me nothing, because I've disabled all TM, C1E, EIST and so on in the BIOS, a lot of bells&whistles and useless services in WXP also. TAT even doesn't start on my rig, saying it can't read something (.dll or process info, I don't remember). SpeedFan 4.32 says me exactly the same what Cor...

First of all I appreciate the idea & the work done on Core Temp. Thanks. But I've to say, that on L2 revision Core 2 Duo chips version 0.95 of Core Temp is incorrect. I've tested it on several boards (Abit AB9, Asus P5B-E) and several L2 rev. processors (E4300, E6300), starting on nominal multip...
