Legit Reviews thave thrown up a new article which examines the Core Temperatures of Prescott CPU! Here's a snip.
After posting our recent Prescott Overclocking article the sharp eyes of many review sites, online retailers, and enthusiasts noted some large temperature differences between our articles. If you have not been following our Prescott coverage let me give you a quick run down. The initial Prescott review was written by me (Nathan Kirsch) using the ABIT IC7-MAX 3 and the overclocking article was written by Jason Petermann on his ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe board.
There was a large difference in temperatures noted between the two boards and due to the feedback from this I've spent the past couple weeks running our 3.2E Prescott on both boards. After using identical settings for testing we found that the results are not only surprising, but they also point out an issue that needs to be better understood by enthusiasts!
