You say its 52C in the bios in your 1st post.
Normally the temperature is different by around 10C by the time you get into windows. I know mine is.
Cheers
Paul.
Edited to add: I just checked mine. It's a pretty cool day here so temps are low but in the bios my temp is 39C and in windows its 27C
Missed that one Paulpicks21. The temps from just sitting in my AUSUS UEFI BIOS are a lot higher. I guess it may be because the BIOS is running the CPU quite hard??????
Something like that yeah, I think it could be that none of the things like Speedstep are active until you reach windows.
Edited to add: I would expect when the OP has installed windows he will see temps of around 40C which in turn may drop more over the next few days as the thermal paste cures.

A lot of good info thanks. I was going to wait until Mon or Tues when I received the AS5 to install 7 and set up everything but after reading today Ill give it a go this weekend. Time permitting.
@p5bdkw, Thats the first thing I checked. They are sticking through and the tops of the pins are all aligned the same.
@mjf, I checked out the web site and thats the method Ill use.
@Paulpicks21, Now thats some good news. I was hoping it would be something along those lines.
Glad I didnt take the cooler off.
Update, I installed 7 today and checked the temps with SIW. All cores were in in the low 30c range.
What is the CPUTIN temp? Thats at 60c.
Thanks again
I don't know but mine always reads 62C so for me I'm assuming it isn't a valid sensor reading....I could be wrong.
Edit: sometimes it can flash up to 127C momentarily....I ignore it.
