I updated my bios from August 2008 to a new one for the first time, and guess what! My temps dropped 10+ degrees!! From 73-75 load to 63-65! I'm loving this and am so glad I did this.

Could have been poor handling of the temp sensors by the old BIOS. That's why you should always be on the latest one.

could have been the motherboard's "auto" overclocking function giving it too much voltage.
