Idle temps are 32-40C and jump around a bit depending upon the core. Core #0 seems to run 2-3C hotter than the rest. However, the U120x seems to handle loads very well. Testing with CoreTemp and Prime95 using their "Torture Test" only increases temps 10-15C max. After nine hours of P95 temps ranged from 45-55C, but mostly stayed in the 46-52C range, flicking occasionally over 50C. Never over 55C even for the hottest core.
Initially I was worried that idle temps seemed higher than most reports, and that I may have mounted the HSF incorrectly, but load temps are right in line with the best of the air-cooled reports and are nice and cool, so everything looks rosy.
