    Ummmm 100*C is the boiling point for water...If your system is stable, I'm thinking that you might have a BIOS that's severely miscalibrated or the temp sensor itself is whacked. If that temp sensor is acurate, you'd have a fried CPU by now.

    There's no way this is the real temperature. I think the max it can stand is 90C.

    The highest temperature that processor is rated to run (stable) for extended periods of time is 65*C (127.5*F), and that's hot enough. If your CPU was truly running at 97*C (that's 175.7*F!), you'd definately smell smoke by now... and where there's smoke, there's fire baby.
    :jump2:
    IMHO, your thermal sensor is defective. If you really want to know what temps your system is running at, pick up a fan control bay with thermal sensors. That'll give you a much more accurate idea of what your system is really running at.

    yeah 97*C, blimey, i thought mine was getting warm when it reached 50*C the other day while like 4 scans were going on at once lol, it must be a defective sensor, no CPU could run at that speed while still being stable, if i had seen those temperatures i would have jumped out of my window and left it ~runs away~
