Help - Need a MB/CPU temp utility that will work with the D975XBXLRK and the Core 2 X6800. The Intel Activity Monitor that came with the MB doesn't work with the Core 2 X6800. Couldn't find one from a quick Google either. I want to do some OC'ing and I don't want to mess with it until I can accurately see the temp. Any help would be appreciated!

My Rig:
Core 2 Duo X6800 Conroe (Stock Clock for now)
Intel D975XBXLRK - 304
Thermaltake Big Typhoon HSF
2 GB Corsair Pro PC6400 4-4-4-15
ATI X1900XTX
74GB 10K Raptor HD
Soundblaster Audigy 2 SZ
NEC OEM DVD Burners (x2)
Gigabyte 3D Aurora Case
Ultra X-Finity 600W SLi Certified PSU

Would you mind posting your temps? I just built my 6800 system, and it's idling at 40-45C. (I'm using the stock hsf, but I cleaned off Intel's thermal paste and put on some arctic silver 5.) To me this seems a bit hot, but not terrible.

Haven't gotten the OS installed yet, so I don't know what the load temperatures will be.
