    does anyone have any idea why the cpu temps may be juming 7-10C while running XTU stress test?

    say from 66 - 75C every 3-4seconds. i see no throttling and CPU usage is almost always 100, rarely 99%.

    so far i have tried 3 different machines, with 3 different CPUs with similar results.

    Stress tests are designed to push the system more than your average benchmarks, games or programs might. You might see similar results with something like Furmark, where it is designed to push the system to the limits and raise temperatures higher than you would see with less demanding tests.

    100% loading is not always "100%" XTU does tend to pulse the load depending on what it is working on.

    How have they been performing when not stress testing them and just doing normal use things?
