Thanks.
I Downloaded the monitor, although i didnt really believe what it was saying. The BIOS was saying that my comp was running at 52C Tempretures (at 2150MHz), but HMonitor said 43C. So which one should i believe??? Thanks

i'd believe bios before anything else.
oh yea, my 2800+ Barton (OC to 2278 from 2080) is said to run full load at about 44/45 C at 21C room temp. bios quotes the temps a few degrees higher. that is with a Volcano 11+ at about 2800 rpms and Arctic Silver Ceramique

Yeah, i think the BIOS is gining the temps a bit higher then they actaully are, becuase when HMonitor says 40C and BIOS says 50C. i touched the HSF and it did not feel all that hot.

as long as it's stable you don't really need to worry, barring anything 60C or above, because then you're just decreasing life span.
Prime95 and sisoft Sandra are good programs to check stability if you're unsure.

'Normally" copper core heatsinks will conduct better heat, therefore dissapatting it faster.
In your case, why not try then both out and seee what one is the best for your setup. Chez
