Thanks,
I am beginning to believe that there's some "bad" monitoring going on with the ASUS probe utility.
I was rooting around in the BIOS last night and came across the temp. reading under the power section and it reads: 48 degrees while the probe in Windows reads 57 degrees all at the same time. (Unless booting up into Windows raises the temp. by that much)...:-).
Anyone know if these two readings are taking from the same probe/thermistor or what?

Also immediately after boot up (30 sec maybe) the ASUs probe utility reads 50 degrees, which in my opinion should be more like 30, being more in line with the ambient room temperature .
I have not been able to raise the CPU temp. by loading it , playing games, DVD's etc. does not increase its temperature at all.

I run the A7V/800 Tbird in the low 50's and its very stable. I wouldn't worry.
