Wow, looks like my temperatures are on the rise after this BIOS update. Coincidence? Maybe, but idk, but I kinda doubt it.

Get this, I started up my computer this morning and got tied up doing something else for about 3 hours. So it's idling, right? Should be about 43C like normal, right? WRONG!!! 55C CORE TEMPERATURE!!! ***!!!

It takes 10 minutes of all the fans full blast, including an external fan, to get everything down to what idle temperature was before....

Well what do you know? It worked. I went ahead and corrected my memory to 6-6-6-16 and then ran prime95 for 5.3hours with stable results. Things did get a little toasty at 59C on the core temperature and 55-56C on the CPU.

I still don't know why they are different, on my laptop it seems to be consistently within 1C across the board (although it does have an Intel cpu and not an AMD) , but I do I expect from getting a Dell, almost every single cpu they offer is an Intel....

Well I'm currently working at my first job that I've had for over a year. I work at a restaurant as a dishwasher, AKA everybody's *****.

I'm sick of getting treated like garbage for such little pay.
I'm sick of having to let my boss know 2 weeks ahead of time when I need a day off... Who schedules anything less than a vacation 2 weeks ahead of time?
I'm also sick of the fact that I sweat my arse off because he doesn't A/C the kitchen. (Hit over 40C yesterday and about 38C...
