i have a Q9450 atm @ 3ghz watercooled on a evga 790i ultra



ok speedfan is telling me that my cpu temps are around 65Cish and so was coretemp on my last mobo. im not sure in the bios where the temp monitorings are on my EVGA 790i ultra but on my Gigabyte GA-EP35C-DS4, my biostemps were saying it was around 30C while coretemp and speedfan were telling me it was 60-70C. i have a watercooling system i rigged up with a swiftech MCP655-B (should be the best waterpump available), OCZ Hydro flow waterblock (should be a great waterblock), 1/2inch tubing, standard 120mm rad and res.

another weird thing is it will say the same temps with 1.4 vcore and 3.8 ghz as 1.2 vcore and 3ghz on speedfan.

i dont get this... i also know that BIOS' today have a 20-50% load on the cpu to make sure it should be stable enough to boot the OS if it can successfully operate the BIOS so it should be a higher temp in the bios than speedfan.
I'd appreciate it if someone tells me how to get into the temp monitoring of my bios on my evga 790i ultra so that i can see if my bios now is saying around 30C

also, my 8800gtx is overheating like no other. it is around 50C idle, (was 75C with stock heatsink) and its like 85C load (was 105C with stock)

i put a duorb on it that i got for $20 open box on newegg. when i play a graphic demanding game like COD4, Fallout 3, Crysis, Fear, or somethinglike that, it will crash after a while, its done this on xp, vista, and windows 7 and on 2 different motherboards.

you think my 8800gtx is dying from 3 years of it being overclocked from 575 core, 1350 shader, 900 mem to 650 core, 1600 shader, 1000 mem?

im getting a gtx 295 within the month so thats not a huge huge issue unless its not the gpu thats causing the crashes
