This is my cpu temp using Core Temp

Spec:
Proc : E8400
Mobo : GA EP45-DS3
Cooler : Arctic Cooler Alpine

Idle
C1 : 37~41
C2 : 37~41

Full load (when encoding divx movie)

C1 : 61
C2 : 61

Is this normal. Actually I want to buy Freezer 7 pro but no stock in my town.

Last night, I try to play Devil May Cry 4 but suddenly comp shutdown (not restart). Is it because of processor over heating? But I check again, when playing, the maximum cpu temp are 47 only. Encoding divx movie produce more heat than playing DMC4.

computer shut down could be cpu overheating... and can be due to other factors as well like psu not enuf juice....

btw, i can say the load temp is quite normal for the type of cooler u are using....

I check System error and found out that System shutdown due to graphic card over heating. After I check using ATI Catalyst CC, the temp are 66~67 without playing any game! So hot. BTW I'm using Sapphire HD2600XT.

Any suggestion for a good vga cooler? Less than RM100 if possible bcoz the gc only cost RM200, so if cooler is over half of the price, better I get other cheap GC.

erm...not really sure bout GC cooler...

but can u try boost up th GC fan speed via software?

iirc the catalyst shud have right?

if not ma try to de-dust ur GC cooler first lo....normally that will help a lil
IMO

Already de-dust. Still the same.
Don't know how to set the fan speed.

u can try use software like rivatuner or atitool and see if it works.....

i only have guide links for rivatuner tho : http://www.vaguetech.com/index.php?pageid=rt207#rivainstall

Get Radeon HD3850 for RM295 lor

Finally I was force to buy VGA cooler. I bought Evercool Turbo 2 Dual Heatpipe Universal VGA Cooler . Actually the price is move expensive here in my town. But now the GC is 20 C cooler.

For idle, the temp is 48~50 and 60~62 when loaded.

But I wonder why GC chipset is more hotter than processor? Is it normal?

can somebody tell me which one gives the correct reading?

why all three got different reading?

just read the ones from coretemp as that one has its TJmax corrected to 100c already

oho.. tq tq.

very normal.
GPU can be hotter than CPU anytime.

compared a 1.6GHz E2160 to a 8800Ultra or 4870 then u know

lols, current GPUS steam CPUs anytime now.
my 8800GT fries my E8400

hi thre
my cpu temp is always stay below 40
but my system temp is always 57 while idle...(counted high rite?)
both my 4 cores always 51,51,49,44 while idle...
hdd temp always below 40 as well

do them counted high?

spec plz...

core 2 quad q9300 series
intel dg31pr mobo
kingston 2gb 800mhz ram _pc6400_
320gb WD hdd
no 3d card is installed

Hi guys is this temp ok ? on aircon room 29 C if no aircon +5C to each temp

erm actually the software u used cant provide u the accurate temp... go dl realtemp 2.75 or coretemp 0.99.3

from they way this thing is going, it seems to be a lil high if u are using s1284... do u apply the TIM too much?

Which temp u meant high 38C? but that's not real idle temp because at the time i capture this ss the temp not fully decrease yet .For the thermal paste think not too much thermal paste because i see from someone review here they apply more than mine, mine a bit less than them.Sorry for the bad english

Here

And here


Edited:Bro where got realtemp v2.75 latest one is v2.70
