It depends on the cooler and HSF on the proc. On my system (AMD Athlon64
3200+ with a Thermaltake A1770+ cooler), my proc is 2 degrees (Celsius)
cooler than the motherboard. My Proc is 35 and my mobo is 37. This is
confirmed by both the onboard caps that register temps, and the two
temperature probes that feed the LED tempgauge at the front of my case.
These temps are with Cool n' Quiet enabled. Under load, at rated CPU Speed,
the proc has gone as high as 44 degrees Celsius.
