I keep reading at Google that people are complaining about dodgy temp sensors on the E8400 anybody else know anything as there doesn't seem to be a solution.
 
Of the 1000's of hits that come back at google very few are solved by the motherboard or bios update and a lot complain of the temp sensors permanently stuck in the 40's even when idle with EIST on and for some strange reason it seems to be the E8400 more than any other model. ?
 
Eeeeeeeeek :eek:

The 7200 too , this is starting to look like a common problem with the 45nm range.

Some have said it only started when they overclocked the chip but others said they had it from stock.
