My brother said he needs 2 hex cores (not sure if he meant 1 with hyperthreading, or actually 2 with hyperthreading).... he's a 'computer scientist'. Not sure exactly what he does, but I think the use is mostly for compiling code, and for that, you always need faster. It's not a greed thing...

One other thing I just noticed... OldFormula=0 and OldFormula=1 seem to have no detectable difference among them, and they both still seem to be affecting temperatures pretty significantly above 70 degrees. Basically what I was trying to do was not change my temps above 70 while calibrating...

unclewebb, I decided I'd just post here instead of sending PM. The new version 3.68 is working and will save my idle calibration & TjMax corrections. Thanks for the fix!

Thanks so much for the help. I understand this better now. EDIT: I tried a bunch of things trying to get the RealTemp calibration to hold, unfortunately it wont. I did however test other options like the alarm temperature and colors and those are all persistent changes in the ini file. Only the...

EDIT: Deleted a bunch of stuff because I was being brain dead and not using my own head to answer my questions. In RealTemp, why is it that I enter calibration settings and on exit everything gets reverted to default? Nothing else in the program settings window does this. I have to play around...

I just had a clever idea.... could I go into BIOS, and disable the core, and then go into Windows and note the difference from it and ambient temp? That way there would be no switching from C states and all (some of which I have disabled, btw).

Thank you for the reply. I just downloaded RealTemp a couple weeks ago after I built my PC, and I thought I had the version that supports SB, I guess I overlooked that. Thanks for letting me know. I got it running now. If the thermal sensors well for thermal throttling (which depends on how hot...

So I have a new i5 2500k .... I usually get at idle: 33/30/33/41 ... with ambient at 27 (that would be avg for stock settings). The temps are good but the 41 is bugging me. I've reseated the stock cooler once and just installed the Hyper 212+, but I was really careful and did right. When I...
