Processor Core 2 Duo e6300 @ 3.2 (Highest OC 3.6 Stable)
Motherboard Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3
Cooling Zalman CNPS9500LED + 5 Case Fans (overkill)
Memory 2gb Crucial Ballistix Tracer DDR2 5300 (want 2gb more)
Video Card(s) Connect3d X1950XT (Stock Speeds)
Storage 250gb Hitachi Sata 2 8mb cache
Display(s) Proview 17" LCD (Looking for a new one)
Case Jeantech Aqua
Audio Device(s) Creative Audigy 7.1 SE
Power Supply Hiper Type R 530w Modular
Software XP (again) will go back to Vista later in the Year
I have my e6300 sat at 3.2ghz with my vcore @ 1.28v (1.325 in bios) and idle temps 43 and 44 with load temps at 62 with a zalman cooler running at 100% all the time, the one in my system specs (cant remember the model off hand).

I also have 5 case fans and 1 extra one on my PSU for case cooling. My CPU has silver based thermal paste on which is only a thin layer.

Do these temps sound about right or something wrong here? as people are always saying theres runs in the 30s idle and 40s load with a higher Vcore than mine to.

I have re sat the HSF about half a dozen times now and turned my case fans around in various ways to see the best result and its always the same temps.

Core Temp, and Speedfan give same results and have attached speedfan screeny to show idle temps.

Any advice will be appreciated...
