You were right, I checked the BIOS hardware monitor and found out that mbmon was reporting the temperature 20*C lower then the BIOS. This brings my avg Tcpu to around 55*C which seems somewhat high considering Intel's datasheet says my processor is rated for a max of 69*C. Should I be worried? -Yuri
