Ok im sure my sandiego was around 46c in the bios at 2.6 I think I need a better cooler, or is 51c ok?.
 
Tried a reseat, no luck backed off to 2.4 and its showing 54c idle i wont be playing any games untill i replace this cooler lol i need a heatpipe I think
 
Ok problem solved it was 59c so I went out and bought a evo120 from a local store, not my first choice but i needed to test now, threw it in and the temp was 47c, still high i thought for idle temp, then i realised folding@home was running, so I turned it off and the temp dropped to 42c so Im sure i needed this cooler to keep it under 50c at load. Might try some giel paste I have its copper colour, has copper and silver in it, i used a white stuff supplied with the evo looks like standard silicone
