So I checked the tape on the bottom of the CPU's there was a little extra on both that was getting caught on the side of the CPU... clipped that off... cleaned, reapplied AS5, temps dropped about 10'C... then through interwebs research I learned that most all temp reading apps cannot accurately read 45nm chip temps... as they are set for 65nm chips... there is a TJmax setting...the max operating temp for a given CPU... and if its not correct your temps will be wrong soooooo I found out the the TJmax for 45nm chips is 85 so I changed that in Realtemp, the supposed best temp reading app ....and now they CPU's are at 42'C idle and 59'C full load...
What I learned today....
