Strange temps

[WizardCalledJosh]

My specs are below...I was having some stablility problems after long intense CPU usage so I bumped up the voltage to 1.85v and now my temps are alittle lower. Evertyhing is most stable also. The previous voltage was 1.80v with temps avg. 37c. Now they are AVG. 33c Probably just chock it up to the p3v4x MB temp sensor not being all that acutarte. Anyone know which is correct or is there a fix yet?

This is a regularly occuring phenomenon - after burn in, it seems that the efficiency of the chip allows a sort of smoother internal op. whereby dissipation is less. This seems mad since the volts in remain the same and the wattage (power) consumption remains the same and the WO (work output based upon positive displacement) remains the same however the tempertaure drops!!!!

It happens to me too - I'm at 35°c at 990Mhz at the moment doing a seti work unit, listening to Winamp, using excel and a few other low key apps before I go to work!!!!
