    OK - I just got my new EPoX 8K3A+ mobo, and i start it up.... temps on CPU are around 40 degrees steady after installing windows and such... I then install MBM5 and Speedfan, and both say my CPU is at a 90 Deggrees (C) temp... i then reboot, and BIOS says its 40 still..... whats goin on???

    select each one and see which one gives you a more realistic temp. I get a cpu temp of -127 on one of the mbm ones :)

    Heheh, is it running atm, if so, there your answer, its unlikly that your mobo could run at 50% voltage than it asks for.
