OK, I upgraded my motherboard yesterday from an Abit AV8 to a Fatal1ty AN8 SLi. I'm using a winchester core 3200+, not overclocked. I was extremely surprised to find that I hadn't put enough Arctic Silver on my processor the last time I tinkered - there was just a small 1cm spot of it in the middle of the processor. (I've done it dozens of times... 
)
Anyway, the cooling system was an Aquacomputer block, the XT, and the temps I was getting with the old motherboard and stupid amount of goo were 38/45C, never outside of that, and always going up and down very quickly.
It shows 21C right now, in the new motherboard, going to maybe 32 under load. Aren't these temperatures suspiciously low? The room temperature is probably 19 or 20 degrees.
