Well it arrived and has been installed temporarily. I say temporarily because my MX-2 tube was empty and I had to use some crap generic TIM, it will be reinstalled at a later date as I'll be trialing several TIMs (Tuniq TX-2, Arctic MX-2 and Noctua NH-1) when they arrive.
Straight up we see a difference in the TjMax between Core Temp/Everest and Real Temp, I've asked other owners for confirmation and I personally believe Real Temp is correct (TjMax of 95°C) but until I get confirmation it's just speculation. I base this speculation on the fact that my Q6600 at 3.0GHz idles in low to mid thirties so I very much doubt the Xeon at 3.0GHz stock with stock voltage is going to be 42°C as it was reported by Core Temp. One thing I have noticed though, from idle to full load is only 7-8°C difference
These things are being clocked over 4GHz with ease so we'll see how it goes.
Here's the first two screenies, all at stock, bios vcore is set to VID for starters.
Idle
Load
Now on with the show, more posts to follow.
