Hey,

Just want to see if you guys can check out this and let me know what your opinions are and if I should be concerned?

I''m using a xigmatek 1238 with as5.

q9550 @ 1650 fsb 412x8.5 = 3505mhz

max temp for load @ mid 60's for 2/3, under 60 for 1/2..

Vcore is at 1.25 but cpuz read 1.24?

Idles between 39-45.. ambients are pretty warm at night, usually 76-79f
