Well, I was curious to see that kinds of CPU temps you guys run. Currently, according to my BIOS update, I idle between 25 and 27. You can look in my "My Computer" thing to see my cooling setup. You also have to remember that, even though I run 2 Tornadoes I rarely, if ever, push their RPMs past 2200. I have found that the difference in temperature between 2200 and 5400 RPMs is only about a degree and it adds 25-30 db so I just leave it low. Anyways, your turn.
Stock Speeds (2.6GHz) 20*C - 24*C IDLE 30*C - 33*C LOAD Overclocked (3.15GHz) 25*C - 28*C IDLE 37*C - 39*C LOAD Using an Arctic Freezer 4 and a decent case and extra fans for good cool air inside this heap.
Overclocked Slot 1 P3 700MHz running at 933Mhz Case Temp 30-32c CPU 28 - 30c This is achieved with no case fans whatsoever!
Idle 44°c - 47°c At games 55°c - 60°c I also think i have a faulty reading those Numbers are from MBM5 on a MSI k8n neo vers 1.2 CPU AMD s754 3700+
with my current system 28.2. c idle - 36.9c work load not really as cool as it use to be...... (sigh)
i have new idle temperatures of 28-29 degrees, they used to be 33 degrees, but since i changed the case back to my old jeantech light fusion case, the temperatures are cooler, the thing is, i have 2 fans at the back, and 1 fan in the middle of the side of the case, and all are sucking in, and before i had 1 at back sucking out, and 2 at side in front of the cpu sucking in, and my temperatures were higher, i would of thought they would of been higher. also i have placed a temperature sensor into the heatsink, and its reporting at 29, pretty accurate .
Well, the temperature probe on the heatsink will give you dramatically lower temperatures than an on die sensor.
I have a 37°c on Idle and 42°c up to 51°c in Gaming from die sensor.I have changed to Salman 120 mm pure Cooper heatsink and fan type CNPS7700-CU and new termal grease and it seems to be 5°c to 10°c lower heat now and i am quite happy with it. And at least Happy new year and may it be a good year 4 U all Greetings from Iceland Falk65
I have my temperature probe directly on my processor and i have my hdd probe in between the rubber and the hdd itself thats on seagate drives
no, those temperatures were form the on die temperature sensor! falk65, i think it must be a faulty temperature sensor, becouse i am even using the stock heatsink and fan. with the temperature sensor on the heatsink, the temperature is usually 1 degrees higher when the cpu is closer to idle temperatures, and when cpu is near load temperatures, the temperature sensor on the heatsink is about 3 degrees lower.
my last 64bit machine was overclocked by 800Mhz (2.0Ghz - 2.8Ghz) and i was running @ 33-38C with 18-21db. ask anyone around here whos the "silent cooling" fanatic, and ull get my name as an answer hehe
i was running: AMD64 3200+ 90nm OEM + Artic Freezer 64 HSF 2 x 512MB Crucial Ballistix PC4000 (heatsinks) 2 x 80mm Silent Vantec fans @ 2200RPM @ 24CFM at the front 2 x 120MM Silent Vantec fans @ 1800RPM @ 28CFM at the back a ThermalRight 480W Silent PSU with 2 x 120MM silent controlled fans one at back and one pushing cold air from the case through the psu. all PSU wires tucked back with wire ties. Rounded IDE / Sata cables A Vantec GPU Silent Cooling kit for my Leadtek 6600GT 128MB An Overclockers Silent HardDrive mount for my sata and a case full of case phoaming (to silence vibration and hide wires) @ DDR 2.8V / CPU: 1.475V Willhub, follow my overclocking guide and you will find the best overclock possible at the lowest temperatures, do it the wrong way and you'll find that you get a lower overclock than you thought and you'll have limited the CPU's overclocking due to the wrong technique used to overclock. It took me about a month to get a good stable overclock then another month or so just to get the case quite. and this was with all the grills cut out for less turbulance and better airflow. (using a jigsaw).
heh, seems like 2.8ghz is the max stable overclock, some reviews say that, and people say that, no matter how hard i try, i cant get 3.0ghz stable unless i put voltage at 1.65v. i am 100% stable at 2.8ghz, i ran prime95 for 8 hours and 40 mins withought any errors or warnings, load temperatures is 37-40 degrees, idle is 25-30 degrees.
If you are getting errors you are NOT stable at 2.8Ghz. you should lower your overclock so that you get NO errors, a stable overclock is 24 hours with no errors on prime95. Otherwise you will eventually damage your cpu.
Ive just built a new rig I think there is a problem with the TIM? My rig is a Dual Xeon 3.0ghz 800mhz FSB, Acording to BIOS and MBM5 CPU1 runs at 82 C CPU2 runs at 61 C My Temprature/Fan control reads Heatsink1 31.2 C Heatsink2 32.7 C Is this normal, cos im gettin woried??
