stock air on xp+2500 @ 1.71v OC to 2.2ghz (11*200) 55C idle/59C load
setup in sig same chip, volts, and OC 40-43C idle/44-46 Load (depending on ambient.)
havent messed with the temps on stock speed. but what really counts in the temp game, is voltage.

i think only several if any at all know real die tempreture. most of us rely on the temp-diode in the mobo. so temp readings are different on different mobo, with different BIOS versions, different air cooling, greases etc.
anyhow, if it will help idle temps droped by 7C and load temps by 25C. comparing original intel HSF with the WC listed below.

With stock cooling on a 2.8c i was getting 48c idle and 58 on load. I had 2 120mm and 1 80mm intake. With water cooling i can get 31c idle and 38 max WITH MY FANS AT HALF SPEED AND A 2.8c @ 3.4 and a 9800 pro at 456.
Water cooling if and only if done right is worth every penny. Its quite in my house now, and my system is better to boot.

my temps dropped 20c from going to water from air.
my temps also dropped 10c when going from a water to a better water setup.

I switched from a SP97 with a tornado and still got a 6-8C drop at full load. I'm running a 2500M at 2.7G at 2V. I also got a huge drop in the noise level.

Actually, I couldn't compare the two. I've watercooled exclusively since AMD released their 450Mhtz cpu...
But I shoot for the quietness of it. You have to strain to hear if mine is running without sitting infront of it. I often use the Antec blue LED's on my Sonata to tell if it's on, since the monitor goes black automaticly.
Just the way I like it.
