For any owners, does anybody have problems like people claim?

It's the BIOS which interprets the sensor, when I read something like this:
abit guru and my bios.. e6750.. at stock.. 18 C idle 38 C load.. artic pro cooler
abit guru and my bios.. e8400.. at stock.. 4 C idle 4C load.. artic pro cooler..
I have to laught very much... because he's an idiot if he believes such values. The values I got in my test you can see in my review, because I took lots of Everest screenshots, doesn't worry me.
He should get a good board with correct BIOS and shall not trust idiotic "off" temperatures. Everyone who does overclock should always set the fan to max speed when testing.

1st and 3rd screenshot is under load, 2nd and 4th is idle, look yourself:

yeah, now all we need is someone to put some freeon in computers and we'll be good to go

In most cases where a chipset only produces anough heat to run the fan then that needs to be the point where the chipset needs the extra cooling. If ambient temp is 25C and the Stirling needs a 25C differential to operate then that means the chipset will need to rise to 50C to get extra cooling. Considering that chipsets have been running in the 50C-65C range for quite some time then we might see a use. Can is keep the chipset below 55C?

This being the first run, I expect someone will produce on that runs 80-85% eff.

I guess this fan is for those who have maxed out their PSU wattage and desperately need a fan. haha.

You gotta give them credit. They're being innovative, which should lead to a more practical version. I guess having a fan that doesn't use PSU power is a benefit in any respect.
