Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone knows what the "normal" idle temps are for the Core i7 950 3.07Ghz? (It has the stock cooler on it. Yes I know I need to invest in an aftermarket one, will do that as soon as possible...) Anyways, core 1 has been at 135F and core 2 at about 145F... Very scary temps for idle I find... I have reseated the heat sink and replaced the thermal paste... didn't make a bit of difference... During gaming it gets even higher to about 170F... Anyone got suggestions for a new heat sink as well... Thanks
