I've heard a lot about asus probe telling the wrong temps on this board. Is it the thermistor or is it the program. My copy seems to agree with the bios and MBM except for one time were it was 10 degrees hotter. The reason why I ask this is because I rally don't see too cool of temp readings from my board. I have used a PEP66 with many combinations of fans, I have tried making an alimunum waterjacket out of an old heat sink. Now I have a copper "cross" drilled waterblock and I still seldom see less than 42 degrees. My pep just couldn't keep it under 50 @ 1.89v. I have lapped all of the above AND my CPU. The copper one was lapped untill I had a tiny little mirror. I even used arctic silver in the final stage of sanding. I am using a THIN coat of silver. I just don't know what else I can do. I am in the process of building a bong, but I really don't have too high of hopes for much less than 40 degrees.
When I first started up with the new waterblock It said 35 degrees, but within 5 minutes of SETI running in the backgroud it broke 40 and soon went up to 43 finally stabalizing at 45. The highest I've seen from it id 46 after some gaming.
BTW I have a duron 700 @ 1000 - 7x143
