I was racing and everything yesterday @ 4.5Ghz/1.5v with a cpu temp of 65C.......... I don't think so. It wouldn't even think about POSTing if not sub-zero at those settings. Anyone ever had a similar experience?

They can easily POST and boot at 4.5GHz even at 85C++
The Core i7's in general, and the 980X's especially can do crazy things... like

i always heat up the cpu...to about 60c.....make sure the ceramique or thermal paste spreads to the micro grooves....for max heat transfer
also if the mount is sorta angled....then a temperature difference = delta, for example greater than 10 C....means a remount is in order

The on-die DTS ( temp sensors ) of the Core i3/i5/i7 CPUs are very accurate, and is the closest reading you can get to the exact core temperature.
CoreTemp or RealTemp and you're set.
