Cpu Temp

howdy

i just got my new com.

and i'm wondering

whats an acceptable cpu temperature for darwin?

i got a volcano 9 and set it on manual to run at about 4200 rpm.
usdm gives me 51 C if i leave the case open and 59 C closed. add an extra couple of degrees if the cpu is on load.

oh yeah, its an athlon 2800 barton

Thats a bit warm, but still an acceptable temperature.

yea thats pretty normal for an amd.

yea like these boys said, but i would be trying to get it to a lower temperature :) its always good to have a cold cpu.

i recon that temp is too high
should be around the 35-50 mark i recon
did u ably artic silver?

Well providing he doesn't have a monster case that screams like the latest offering from Airbus Industries, or possible enough fans to make personal intercontinental travelling possible and it's in Darwin. It is a fairly good temperature. Considering of what he's also running in the case. A hot running graphics card and other stuff will run up the CPU temp. I've got a silent case here in Melbourne with temps indoors around 16C with the CPU running 59C on load.

Your in Melbourne>?

My 3200 + runs at 50 max under full load, but then again, I have 4 case fans, 1 exhaust fan, 2 fans on the PSU, 2 fans on the HS and a 3 fan HDD cooler ...... :?

From that comparation, I reckon that temps not too bad and least ur computer doesn't sound like a stageing aircraft :?

My 2100xp sits at that in a unacconditioned room.

yup artic silver has been applied

there are no case fans or power supply fans or chassis fans or any whatsorts.

this com is run in a non air conditioned room

i can get it down to around mid forty's if i pump the fan to ultra high, but i just can't stand the loudness of it

We have a cooler PC forum for this kind of thread..

thanks.

Though I thought Cooler PC's was more for the hardcore aspects of personal machines and enthusists section (moddes). This is a hardware forum and a discussion regarding temps is good.

And yeah I'm in Melbourne for uni at the moment will be back at end of year.

Yeah the cooler PC forum is more for mods and O/Cing, how to get CPU temps lower is hardware

melbourne is air conditioned.

Yep my athlon runs around 40 C all the time in a shuttle case with a HDD practically right on top of it :)

I got a 2200+ with a volcano 7 attached. Me case has 2 fans, one in window and one at the back. I have arctic silver III applied.

I get about 50-55 and prolly higher under load i guess. A couple times (rare) when we had a cool dry season morning it was in the mid to high 40's but didnt stay there for long because the cool air didnt hang around for very long :(.

My 2100+ is using a Spire FalconRock II running at 35 degrees, no case fans..

I laugh at joo !

hrm, since I changed my case... upped the temps 5 degrees from 35-40 to like 40+ full load.. 30degrees case temp, goto re-apply the thermal paste.. try that, make sure ya get the edges :D.. Also dont truse some mobos temps, ther fuxord..

And the SK6+ is still pimp :D

i laugh at joo!!! one of my machines is running a volcano7+ on an Athlon 2400+ with no case fans cept an antec psu and it sits on 28 degrees under full load so ner ner ner!!???!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

NOW THAT IS FROSTY FOR AN ATHLON BOYS AND GIRLS!!!

EDIT: back to the topic mate that is quite acceptable up there, besides amd state that their cpu's can handle up to 95 degrees although i have never seen this happen!!!

can't laff at this because my fan is a lot quieter and doesn't use a powerful fan like the whiney bitch that is the volcano 7+ :P

39deg for my 2700

mine sits on 38 degrees in a a/c room... bur right now its sitting on 50 ish. and mine is a athlon xp.....
