Dual core Pentium Presler XE runs fine at 4.26GHz

I FINALLY I finally had a look at a long-awaited Presler XE (Pentium 955) sample, the dual-core 3.46 GHz MCM beastie with dual 2 MB caches and 1066 MHz FSB to boot - all that put on a brand new Intel 975XBX mainboard (oh yes, don't confuse the 955X chipset with the 955 CPU, although both should be able to work together anyway).

The CPU temperature as per hardware monitor jumped from 80 C to 90 C

That's an insane high temperature for just doing nothing and running stock...
