You must have redeemed your loyalty points.
Patience pays...my dear man
I bought the Noctua U12P SE2 from rahul of The ITwares without the Noctua NT-H1 thermal compound @3550+200=3750 shipping...Normal cost was 3750+200 shipping....I was the last one to buy...next U12P shipments will come in 2months acc to Rahul...
The Hyper 212+ is 1.9K and another nice fan should cost somewhere between 500-600 bucks...However,the Hyper 212+ is out of stock in Kolkata at present(enquired yesterday)...will come in a weeks time
thanks...well wishers like you went a long way to help..the waiting was killing me

^^nice, now two things odd there.
1. Download and use IBT 2.51, its giving me 83GFlops. Test yours with that.
2. You are suffering from the Turbo scaling bug, the Bug I mentioned long ago, sandy bridge turbo is supposed to be like this:
If you are stressing with all 8 cores then your proccy should max out @ 3.5GHz, look at earlier screenshots I provided, you'll find that mine maxes out at 3.5 for all cores.
Now you are directly going to 3.8GHz and staying there, no proper scaling, also keep cpu z running in background and do mundane tasks, does the multiplier jump to say 24, 28, and finally 38 or straight to 38? Its the turbo bug, no scaling.
Temps are nice though, idle is lower than mine, your third core is a bit hot but a few chips turn out that way, my second core is hotter than rest.

About issue 1,solid copy bro...downloading IBT 2.51 right away....
About issue 2,its got something to do with BIOS settings...I had selected Turbo Ratio>By all cores...then selected>38 as multi...will check that out and report...
BTW...are the TIM n Cooler doing good? The TIM settled now?

So that's the issue, you are OC'ed, that's how sandy OCs, select auto in turbo settings, the multiplier will be automatically set to 38(it'll show target freq as 3800MHz on top), no need to manually set multiplier in stock.
Like this:

Yes, TIM is doing very good, 1-2 deg lower idle than mine, nice. Its settled, enjoy.

Is it possible?
Why is the disrepancy between CPU-Z and Realtemp VID readings? Which one to trust?
