How is this possible? The minimum temp shown is 14C, which is about 57.4F, my ambient temp is 71F, 22C.

It's not. It is software reading it and the software is notoriously wrong, especially at idle temps. It gets closer the higher the temp though. Thus, why I don't trust what we see as CPU temp.

Just messing Gary, not too sure mate. You been messing with LN2?

It was a joke based on his RMA history Bill lol.

No, I just can't believe he's gonna delidded his core again.. (teasing)

By the way...
Today i spent four plain hours to clean the leftover flux residue on the back of my motherboard, 'cause some spotted sticky parts on edges, all along E/S plugs , Usb plugs and behind heatsinks, along some PCI-e_x. A two month old Mobo!

Used Isopropyl alcohol only and many many cotton buds that all cames pretty dirty from flux residue in that yellow brownish color, until the PCB have a glossy look. Brushed it with a toothbrush to remove cotton fibers as final.

I'm used cleaning with light alcohol parts of PCBs (mostly laptops back then) 'cause of dust & smoke area, but readed that some Overclockers do have also that manner for flux, in purpose of better oc'ing thing i wasn't totally aware before.

It tooks me more time than i thought!

No, this CPU is what got me into the green section. Under prime the temps run from 76C-82C, so 6C difference. As Steve said idel temps aren't real accurate. I think it was Ryan who said at a temp 25C and less the accuracy goes away.

I've had readings on mine of 17-19*C before and I can tell at about 24* and up it becomes much more accurate based on other components and room temp. Just a little buggy. Unless you've unlocked beast mode on your cooler and entered a phase change dimension while the flux capacitor was fluxing around the multi-dimensional vortex causing a paradigm shift of electrons to the adverse polarity of the rotational density of pi........you didn't do that, did you??

A little. I do have 2 Vortex fans on it rotating in parallel tachyon pulse width mode. I added a bit of a neutrino cascade fountain too.

I am taking notes for new OC methods
