Oh Damn really? Do you have any evidence?If thats the case, what am i doing at only 4ghz. Bring on 4.2
Intel specs sheet. That 67'C is for the cpu outer shell/case I believe...the cores can take 100'C before massive degradation/failing.
It's $10 cheaper on Amazon.com =)

What recommended limit are you talking about? Intel never specifically specified any other limits with regards to the cores. If I was to keep my i7 920 under 70C I'd have to stop using it for what it's most useful for... rendering.Where you meaning to the Core brands or the individual cores in a cpu? For the brand they do have recommend temps but there just recommendations.

Look under "Thermal Specification"

Thermal specification refers to the maximum temperature that should be reached at the geometric centre on the topside of the Integreated Heatspreader. With the exception of mobile CPUs, it has no direct relation to core temperatures. For Mobile CPUs (which have no heatspreader) it refers to the maximum core temperature before throttling occurs, and usually it will be a more round number such as 105C.
If it was just a recommendation, it would not be so precise

It's summer, so room temp is in the high 20s (celcius) much of the time. I idle at 47-50C and load at around 65C. I run stock speed but I undervolted by 0.16V. At stock vcore I idle about the same but load at around 82-84C.Your CPU runs very hot for an undervolted one?
I get ~29C on Idle and ~40C on max load

you do got a point. Im always learning something new everyday.

Luckily it's actually around 100C (usually).
