Hey, is 75C okay for VRM temps? My mobo(ASUS 990FX rev 1) has two temp sensors, VCORE-1 and VCORE-2 which supposedly monitor VRM temps according to ASUS Thermal radar. When playing BF3 they'll skyrocket to 70C within the first 5 minutes....

Do I win?

Hwmonitor says 70C after 10 minutes under prime95 as the socket temp, core temps are 60C. I really hope these are accurate.
