How are my temps...

And why does speedfan report my temps higher than TAT/Core Temp? Which one should I believe?

I'm using an Arctic Freezer 7 Pro.

Idle Temps:

Load Temps:

im using a 4300 and a freezer pro aswell, my temps idle @ 50 and load @ 70 =/

Yours look ok, voltage is v low i must say! Im going to reduce mine a bit more tommorow i think, aswell as reseat the sodding heatsink. Thinking about buying some arctic silver.

as5 knocked 12 degrees off the temp of my xp64, not a c2d i know but it does make a difference

these arctic freezers are supposed to take a while for the compound to harden(increase thermal conductivity) though, so ill give it a chance first. Its always around the 70c mark, no matter what voltage and overclocks i use, so im guess its just a conductivity thing really. 70s hardly going to destroy my system, but itd be nice getting it all running cooler inside.
Currently on the brighter side of 2.9ghz with my 4300 now anyway

at full load on both cores its currently 71-73 though, scary! im going to have a look inside case 2moro and see if theres any ways i can improve airflow. its a pc-7, wasnt expecting to have to do this

70s mark? That's too high. Make sure you've installed the pins fully.
