cpu temp

ReDGuiTaR · Apr 21, 2005, 09:42 PM

Ok, as you can read in my sig my barton 2600+ is running on a 200mhz FSB and i just lowered the multiplier a bit from 11.5 to 11 to reach good stability ...

the thing is : what about the temperature of my rig ... is it good ? and should i read the socket temp ot the cpu diode ? I see many ppl telling their cpu running cold on air cooling ( like 38-43 degree ) are they talkin about their socket temp ?

mine read as follow according to MBM 5 ( motherborad monitor app )

case 30 celsius
cpu diode 61 celsius
cpu socket 46 celsius

pls comment

BTW : since i OC the cpu the computer has crashed 3-4 times ( in 2 weeks ) and when it do so it look like a video card problem ( image freeze and is corrupt / shaking ) .. then the only thing i can do is push the power button to reboot ...

60C is very high!

for a XP get that fixed, new cooler is advised

better get a better cooler. i was worried when my 3000+ was hitting 45C@ 2.6GHz. i would look into getting a good cooler. like a thermalright cooler.

don't worry. there is nothing wrong with your temperatures. 60°C is very resonable for the cpu diode temperature, if that was your socket temp i'd be a lot more worried. If your diode temp is closer to 80-85°C then i'd be worried.

Thanks

I think a lot of ppl are confusing the socket and cpu diode temp .. i dont think a cpu can run at 45 degree only on a air cooling system ..

If you were to get a new heatsink I would get a Thermalright SI-97. One of my friends had it and it's way chill. I'm doing a moving job for a lady so i'll have the money to buy one soon.

And right now my 2600 throughbred is idling 45 when I OC to 2300 mhz, is that bad?

um...what temp does it get to full load?

FearTheTerp · Apr 22, 2005, 12:42 AM

Actully, for some reason my BIOS numbers and my WarpSpeeder numbers are different, I'm actully idling at 38-40 and full load it is 46-48.

Thermalright is no.1!I use the XP-120.

The_Neon_Cowboy · Apr 22, 2005, 03:03 PM

^You want to shoot for anound 50C though with the thermalright cooler
I had 35 C on air fill load 2500+ @ 3200+

itchy5 · Apr 22, 2005, 06:01 PM

thermalright > all.

ReDGuiTaR · Apr 22, 2005, 09:10 PM

still ... no one is getting the point ... what temp are you talkin about ?

cpu diode temp or socket temp ? 40degree seem low for the cpu diode temp no?
if you dont get what im talkin about just install mbm5 .. it s giving case temp , socket temp & cpu diode temp ... post your result
