Personally, mine used to peak at 72-3 before I applied some thermal paste to it. Now it goes to around 62-5 at peak.

I made this thread to get some of the temps from other boards and users. I know exactly what temps the NB of a 990FX board should be. 55-65c is normal. Its how the chip works. However there are some users who where bashing Gigabyte about it, Calling it a defect. I made this thread to gather info on ALL 990FX NB chip's on all diff mobo's. Just so we can settle the debate's about what is acceptable or not. The 990FX NB is the new Fermi if you will. but thank you for the offer.

If AMD would have published info on the temp's that are acceptable this whole debate could have been avoided....

EDIT: your club is just as confused as my club as to what acceptable temps are, and what the sensors are monitoring......
What sucks the most is people refuse to listen when told proper info on such things.
