I have flashed the new BIOS(703). However I noticed that my idle temperature is around 49-51C (60C load). Previously I had the factory version of bios (302 I believe?) and the temperature on the CPU was around 40C in idle.

Also I have noticed, when I start my computer, that my GPU fan goes for an extra couple of seconds under fully load (100%) and then it goes back to normal (40%).

One more thing... what is CPU Fetching option for? It is in the BIOS an it is set to enabled.I haven't changed it yet.


Any thoughts on this?

UPDATE: CPU Tweak was Enabled...and that was apparently giving me an extra 10 C on CPU.

Disable CPU Tweak and Auto XPress, this should lower your temps 5-8*C at least. Ive been running like this for about 3 weeks, and there is a noticable difference in temps, as well as stable 3.2ghz on my 9950.
