just updated it now, i'm not sure I believe the temp sensor at all anymore though. I'll have to get a temp laser gun and see if the temps are close to the same.

Any other fixes besides that? I was hoping for C1E disable in the BIOS...

no C1E disable that I could tell.
I'm thinking that the Abit engineers aren't sure how to calibrate sensors. the temps definitely seemed more accurate before than they are now. I just can't see 40c full load as being realistic with a Prescott overclocked, considering my ambient temp is about 25c.

And this is showing me that my idle temp is 2* C below ambient with stock cooling right now.

well after a week of using this or so the temps are still down anyone think these are correct? or check to see if they are correct? i guess u could just stop the processor fan and see what temp the processor throttles at and go from there, ,whats an intel 640 throttle temp?
