gpu temp: 41C
Fan speed: 41%

Using SpeedFan I noticed the "aux" temp is 52%; there's a little fire icon near it.

A little off topic here but I just noticed that the Nehalem chipset is out there now.  When the hell did that happen?  Like within the last couple of weeks?  I knew Intel was targeting winter 08 but with all the delays it just kind of caught me off guard that it's actually rolling out.  Seems like a pretty quiet launch for something as significant as this.

I was surprised as well and they seem to give a nice upgrade against the Quad cores.

Maybe its the fact you have to basically change your entire system to run it so its not getting more hype  ???
