i owe you and gigabyte an appology. all this time i thought these gigabyte P35 boards wasnt totaly compatable with the 45nm chips.well come to find out it was a bad CPU that was causeing the heat issues i had(hey i like that HAD). but haven a new board is nice also..lol
not a bad ratio 3 board 3 cpus in 6 months time frame...lmao!!!!

guess he only thing i have to complain about or OCD about is this dang stuck sensor at idle speeds.

An E2180 I could maybe understand, but a CPU as powerful as the E8400, that's terrible...

Yup!! That's the POS-775 Model! ROFLMAO!!
You should have seen the one that came with the AMD 4800+. Must have cost AMD all of $1.99 to buy! Weighs about 1 Oz.! I guess that makes it a POS-AM2 model! LOL!!

Then again, this is the heatsink that came with my XP 3000+ PC. This was considered big back then, too right for how much heat those chips generated!

78ºC at stock clocks in the summer before I upgrade my case! lol

It is, the Ultra 120 comes with the clips required to attach it.

rick, did you have a look at wireshark? I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for, but it gives extensive network stats.

Oh, also, utorrent tells you its total figures for download and upload since installed.

I was wondering when that was going to happen. Took too long, imo.

So...who wants to play TF2 with me?

must be. ;) You had to put big billboards on your screenies to be seen. ROFL.... :P

I immediately saw the LOWER temps but NOT the "stuck" sensor. So is everything going ok with the "new" build. ;) So how is the "old" mobo doing?? Just curious. ;)

I thought I'd give the stock cooler a try as it came with the CPU. Go figure who thought INTEL knew what they were doing.
I have a Freezer 7 pro that I originally bought to go on the CPU, but figured Intel to send an adequate cooling fan
This is your case? link

If so the "air flow" seems a little weak in there. ;) I would either turn the side fan off OR take it out OR make the side fan an exhaust fan and take the fan shroud off too. ;) So to recap; front fan in (intake), side fan (if you keep it, exhaust=out), rear fan (exhaust-should be able to leave it be). See if that helps air flow and temps at all. ;)
