Does your CPU heatsink have a flat type thermal sensor on it? On mine I had
to glue the thermal sensor to the bottom side of the copper heatsink next to
where the cpu contacts the heatsink but not on top of the CPU. A temp of 39c
is a nice low temp. What is your high temp average of the cpu at full load?
Can you control the CPU fan speed and what is the speed at? I'm getting a
new fan and heatsink next week and will see if that helps.
