nit sum help from here...
i using coolermaster cpu fan...model i forget...
oni remember is silent model...under 20dB
now my cpu temp is 70...
when play wc is 80...
izit tat normal...?can any1 tell me wut's da ideal temp...??
bsides...any1 can tell me which fan better...?
i change tis silent bcoz the original fan was too noisy when high temp
thx for help...thx lot!!!!

I think your cpu temp high leh.
What cpu u are using?

wat processor u using? Intel Presscot? they run hot...mine with coolermaster vortex runs at 60 + idle...and when play WC it goess 75 above....but i change use Coolermaster Thermal paste too....
presscots are built to run hot...but not sure how hot lar..

Dun over 70C. Its could damage ur Mobo my dear.
I guess ur CPU HSF is "COOLER MASTER X-Dream III" rite?

Check ur Processor model with CPU-Z... google around ....

usually it woulnt be that hot for newer series of processor ... but for prescott over 3.2 ghz .. it is otherwise condition ....

maybe u need to clean the heatsink and apply a new layer of cooling ceramic...

need more details!!!

i using p4 2.8e processor

What HSF are you using now? Did you change the HSF yourself?
Did you re-apply thermal paste AFTER cleaning away the old layer?
Anyway you should run with open casing and take a look if any of your casing fan / HSF fan not connected /dieded...

coolermaster hsf...the model is mention silent 1..
price is around rm70 like tat..was bought 1year++ ago
i not sure izit the thermal paste prob...
coz last time waste my 1st time change myself so i din apply da all thermal paste that it giv me..

Well the thermal paste you need is just a paper thin layer. Don't need to use all of it.......but buy some Artic Silver 5, it should help temps as well as a re-seat of the heatsink is good.

KC

how much does it cosT?

I think RM20 if not mistaken.

=.= sigh...google for this program called CPU-Z and it might provide us with a clearer picture of your problem.

Btw..im having a Prescott 3.2 ghz and my idle temps are at 40'c and full load only reaches 46'c at stock speed... Did messed around with my FSB with ClockGen but couldnt reach a stable OC due to my PSU... I clocked to 3.55ghz and the temps were just a sly high at 44'c at idle and 54'c at load...

You really should look into ur air circulation in your casing and go for Artic Silver 5 dude....

i using speedfan to check my temp..
there got 2 temp..
got 3temp..
temp1 : 34
temp2: 67
temp3: 128
can teach me wut da meanin of tis temp...?
thx~!!!1

post a screenshot la....who knows what you are talking about wei...lol

sorry..i duno how to post screen shot
if u use speedfan software..den u wil kno wut i mean by temp 1,2,3

to speedfan user..
is there any posibility tat the temp2 bcum the chip + motherboard temp??
i read the speedfan website seems like mention sumthin like tat

btw...wut's u all cpu fan speed?
2.4k rpm..izit tat normal?

well if ur a prescot proc 2k kinda low...my frens almost 4k rpm.its deafanning to y ears how many fans u put in ur casing?have u clean up all the dust at ur hsf,casing fan?

I believe you have not applied your thermal paste properly. Either that or your CPU cooler is failing....

I believe so too...there's no way on idle a properly installed processor can reach that sorta temp...less u put it near your living rooms window and having direct sunlight

Reapply your thermal paste...but before doing so, please do a proper cleaning first~ use those lint free cloths and dont RINSE your cloth...keep it dry...wipe all those paste and reapply them. Should do the trick.

yeap I agree, Best is use Arctic Silver 5.... haha... to the threadstarter, if ur hse is near mine, I can help you apply for a very small fee. I bought a 12gram one now so much left still

Don worry i'll come in handy later.i bought a smaller tube but i just gave some of my frens who need them when installing a new proc.i rather share it than later it MIA

can help me c which 1 temp is whcih 1 ???
thx!!!!!!

#pong

try installing the latest version of speedfan u know which is which ok?

#update

P4 630 + Gigabyte G power pro 2k rpm idle at 41c load 55c.weird i tot temp shud be lower since this chip not so hot as my 520 also HSF better than TT Golden orb2

tis 1 is da latest i tink??
the 4.32 beta i read d...
jes add in sumthin nothin special...
i wil post my comp spec later...
i oso wonder y 66 so high
can tell me which temp means which???
thx~~!!!!

It's hard to know which temperature is for which hardware if u're using Speedfan to monitor it...

I suggest, go download a copy of PC Wizard 2006 from:
http://www.cpuid.com

Then install it, run it, then click on the icon that looks like a speedometer...

It's easier leh...

okok
thx lot`~~
coz i thouhgt speedfan quite famous mar..

i hv 1 question...izit possible the cpu temp could it be wrong..???
coz when i plasy dota..the temp up til 84...but no even a little lag at all..
coz my fren told me if over 80...it wil auto shutdown o warnin..~~~

Holly mother!!! y the heck ur temp is GD high?ur using stok HSF?have u clean ur pc yet?

#coz my fren told me if over 80...it wil auto shutdown o warnin..~~~
*yes if u have preset it at ur bios

This post has been edited by styloe: Oct 29 2006, 01:18 PM

I suspect is ur sensor gone spoil,cos i have my previuos rig,P4(630) running at 60 celcius and everything runs smoothly and fine...

oh yeah kinda remember this happens to a fren of mine.brother sHaWty

i am using tis hsf
http://www.coolermaster.com/index.php?LT=e...X%20Dream%20III
even if i no apple thermal paste properly...cant b idle oso up to 70 rite?

Paiseh..
Who told you to use that heatsink?

That's a sucky sucky heatsink liao...

That heatsink is a low end heatsink...

It's performance is much lower than the Prescott original heatsink that came with the intel when you buy it...

Change the heatsink to a more performer such as Hyper 48, Hyper 6+, XP90C or XP120...

um...i read da spec...tis hsf stil ok..~
bsides, my fren using same mobo wif me...same p4 2.8e
he using gigabytes G Power...but his temp oso omost like me...jes slightly lower...60C when idle..play dota 64C
izit our mobo sensor not compatible...?using dfi 865PEAL..

.......................

No it's not okay...
That HSF is a low end heatsink...

You're processor uses a prescott cores...
I even use that heatsink once...

And i use it for my 3.0E [The same core with you're processor]

Stock intel heatsink: 58celcius
CM XdreamIII: 62celcius
CM Hyper 6+: 40Celcius [My 3.0E is overclocked to 4GHz (means running at 4Ghz speed)]

Just look at it's design, and compare it with the other heatsink that is on the market and you'll know the cooling power of it...

I've used a lot of heatsink, so i know how does that Xdream III performs...
Don't believe me?

Check my successful tradelist, i've been using a lot of heatsink...
And the best heatsink so far for me is Thermalright Ultra 120 and Thermalright XP120...

This post has been edited by sHawTY: Oct 29 2006, 10:19 PM

haha..tat time out of money..tat's y no buy those expensive...summore 1st time using...lolx...anyway...i goin to buy another if case like tat...
wut's da price of Thermalright Ultra 120 and Thermalright XP120.?

i tink ultra 120 kenot compatible wif my processor...
i use socket 478...
wut's da price for xp120??
where can i buy for it?

Thermalright XP120 is already stopped from being manufactured...
It's old already...

About Thermalright Ultra 120, i don't know either this heatsink can be used on socket 478 or not...

As u're using Socket 478, my suggestion is go for Gigabyte G-Power Pro...
I've used that heatsink for my Pentium 4 3.0E before, and what i get is a performance that is much better if compared to CM Hyper 6+, when i'm using G-Power Pro, i got 38celcius when i'm oc'ed my 3.0E to 4GHz..

I don't know why you're friend get 60celcius while using that heatsink. Perhaps maybe u're fiiend didn't fit it well or didn't use thermal paste or use thermal paste, but maybe too thin or too thick or maybe he uses that heatsink on the lowest speed...

G-Power Pro are known for it's better performance if compared to CM hyper 6+ or CM Hyper 6...

And to add up, it's much much lighter than CM hyper 6+ or CM Hyper 6...

okie...
so g power pro cost??

compare the g power pro n g power lite..
wut da diferent n the cost??

G Power lite is the one that uses white fan right?

G-Power Pro is better i think...

The cost: G-Power Pro: RM165 from moderno

Advise: Don't buy at Lowyat Plaza...

moderno there dun hv wor..if got where?
regardin to da fan..got different?white fan..?

This is G-Power Pro:


This is G-Power Lite:


Notice the differences in number of heatpipes?

means da different jes da heat pipes??/
den da cost?
if not too big different..sure i go for pro..~~~

More heatpipes, higher performance liao...

G-Power Lite is much cheaper than the G-Power Pro...

hha..k la...thx for ur helpin
neways...i wil choose for lite 1..since cheaper+ i oso not plannin to overclockin bla bla..~~~

u should get g-power BL...it's a cheaper model than G-Power lite, the only difference with the G-Power Pro & BL is G-Power Pro have speed controller with maximum fan speed of 3200RPM while G-Power BL consist the fan speed of 1700rpm & 200rpm...

i bought G-Power BL for RM135...

thx for ur suggestion...
i wil go c for it..

i'm using an amd athlon xp 64, MSI mobo k8N socket 754...

my cpu temp is avg 52. system temp is around 43. fan speed idle 3.4k rpm.

is that normal? everything else is stock. and cheap 450 watt icute casing psu.

kinda high i think shud be below 50c on load.check it HERE!!!!

i bought g power pro 2nd.cheap also.the fan can go 3k rpm but u can go deaf at that speed the sound

This post has been edited by styloe: Oct 30 2006, 08:29 PM

hmmm...ok..im looking at some CPU coolers at modernopc.com

cool stuff! i m thinking of something at below rm100. i dont do overclocking , no games. just basic computing..and lotsa 24/7 dling...

whatya guys think?

pc cooler brand also good and cheap but slightly above rm100.maybe u can find 2nd like me.both my TT golden orb II and g power pro are 2nd coz cant fork out that much for a HSF

This post has been edited by styloe: Oct 30 2006, 09:44 PM

hmm...cool..
im looking at a gigabyte neon 8 bulked by moderno (only rm80).. or if i go into the 100+ range...the gigabyte Gpower or 3d rocket...

good?

but anyways i'll still look out for other brands..

Not true... I bought my G-Power BL at only RM130 which is cheaper than ALL the forumers here selling gigabyte heatsinks

Btw, I think there really is no point going for G-Power Pro unless you need the fan speed controller. Don't worry about the sounds coming from G-Power BL, its really quiet... well to me la. haha... and if its a lil loud for u, then u can use the fan speed controller cable which reduced it to 1700rpm from 2000rpm.

hmm..wld the neon 8 do fine? im not a really heavy user...just dling..no games...but my amd 64 is around 50+ idling...

Not really sure about Neon 8 but idling at 50°C for your AMD is definitely hot. Back when I used stock cooling is idle at 44°C Maybe its ur casing air flow. Your fans are not placed properly or smtg? You know what.. I think right, if you're just a normal game user not gonna overclock or anything, no point going for so high aftermarker cooling. The reason why I got my G-Power was becoz I wanna try OC my AMD..

it's been a year and a half since i bought the pc and just cleaned my dust. after cleaning my dust temp dropped from 80+ to 50. crazy.

maybe i shld fix up the cables too..airflow problem eh...

thanks anyways for the tip.

btw, i hope those long periods of extreme temperature hasnt permanently damaged my cpu...

just make sure u make a monthly maintenance.clean the dust.a new cabel management should be nice and a nice high CFM fan.get those vantec casing fan high cfm and low noise.for HSF it depends how much ur willing to fork out.Im in luck coz getting a gpower pro for 80bux only .i need to replace my rear fan seem it can suck out air due to the gpower performance to great.sighhh money again!!!

The almighty Vacuum cleaner always does the trick...however..u do need to take the HSF once in a while...using Gigabyte 3d Rocket Pro~ =) works great when u hv another fan blowing at the top to cool those copper / aluminium... 46'c Max even on full load..thats 1 thing im proud of my PC..^.^v courtessy of Moderno of coz..

Cooling for PC's nowadays are becoming an essential~ ^.^v so learn up your airflow before tackling the temperatures..1 exhaust fan always helps to keep the temperature in the casing..2 would be best...

tis is mine casing...but i duno wut's da price..do any1 can tell me da price..?thx~!!!!
bsides, can any1 who using p4 2.8E HT tell me ur processor temp+ hsf u using??
wut;s ur processor temp when usin ori last time..?thx~~~!!!!!

This post has been edited by pong85: Oct 31 2006, 09:24 AM

you have the casing but you dunno the price? maybe your parent brought for you...then ask your parent just kidding...

haha....nop..not my parents buy 1..
my cousin get it for me...
tat's y i duno da price..lolx..

its full alu retails at 3-4 hundred i think.plz go back to the main topic.

ops...paise paise...
coz i lazy open new topic..~~~
lolx~

crap my temp still not stable jump up and down like kanggaroo...one sec its at 44 then 48.suddenly at 40 then shoot to 50c.i prime like hell still like this

what a whack! so goddamn hard to install new Tt blue orb!! but it performs great i think...

I don't that outcome comes from the heatsink...
I think it's from you're motherboard sensor chip liao...

if it was faulty the temp how they say camci...hehe...dang it need to replace all my casing fan and install 2 90mm for super ventilation aka dust gathering.crap.....

ayak TT blue orb blocking ur ram slot?how can that happen?maybe u can change the cooler later when wanna add more rams.

i'm using 2.8E also, but my Temp not like ur PC so serious HOT
i'm using stockheatsink idel is 52C full load is 60C,
i'm using a normal ENLIGHT casing.. but strange enough is, when i open the
CPUZ, the clock speed it won't run full speed. the fsb always run like 199MHz and core spedd is around 2.799mhz.. only if i overclock my proc to 250Mhz = 3.5G, then it only run full speed. Got any EXPERT can story me, y my proc so ALIEN wan??

weird
my fsb owiz run more than 200mhz~

when u bourght ur PROC wan??

That's normal la...

No motherboard will report exact figure like the processor were set like...

Except if u're using a high end motherboard, than that is another story...

If your proc is set to run using 1:! divider rather than by SPD then you will be able to see the proc running at full speed 200MHz.

ya lar now i'm runing 1:1 divider..

er.. my MOBO is ASUS P4P800E DLX..
izzit a high end mb???
then how is the STORY right now..??

What psu u using? this might happen if u have a weak PSU...i spot a deluxe mobo

Hmm...
ASUS P4P800 E Deluxe is still considered high end motherboard for socket 478, but if compared to P4C800 E Deluxe, then the P4P800 E Deluxe is a defeat...

Anyway, just like what linkin182 says, it might be the problem that came from u're psu...

What type of psu are u using?

Anyway, is just my 2cents..

i'm using ACbel wor 450Watt wan bourght from LYP RM250...

Acbel oso got a few models woh~ anywayz...there's prolly these few oni loh...Motherboard under volting oso got such thingy...ram timings bo syok..too loose oso can happen...a GeForce GX2 under ur hood oso can happen~ hehehe...slowly loh..these things are very...annoying..if u cant reach it..use clockgen loh~ 203mhz fsB? not bad waaaaat~ ^.^-b +3 mhz extra FSB..:P:P:P

sorry 2 interupt
jz a noob q
proc overclockability...izzit affected by proc temp?
cos my proc tested using sp2k4...cpu temp via smartfan is <45C but failed 1024k test...haizzz
even the n/b temp is much higher...around 47C

Acbel 450WATT=RM250 that wan is a true power i think.....
203mhz like very ALEIN ler.. hahaha

ALEIN or ALIEN?

Aiyo fren, don't worry about those little FSB differences laa...

As long as it didn't run to 180MHz, then that mean everything is okay laa...

Don't worry la...

oOps sory wrong spelling..

y u all so expensive 1?
i use 480watt true power from icute oni~
price around 135

haha!! ICUTE always like to MODIFIED sticker wan..
u don't know mer?
how is ur 2.8E the heatsink changed???

You actually trust icute PSU?

haha i used it.. coz it cheep.. hehe

huh
icute so lousy mer?
i duno wo..coz tat time change casing den said my old psu not enough support too mani fans...so i change lo...den they suggest tis to me..
aihzzzz

haha~ stick an x1900xtx in it and see =) you'll know what we're talking about..haha...

Wats ur 12v amperage? combined 12v amps that is...u can check the sticker on ur PSU...

huh?
dun get ur meanin

What he mean is, try plugging in an ATI X1900XT on you're pc, and you'll know why we say Icute PSU's are lousy...

*ot* I heartache cos I cannot use 1900xt cos gotta buy new PSU

Anyway somehow become PSU thread oredi... but still relevant to temps. cos its important to select a psu with good 120mm to take out heat from near the cpu.

Pong got a decent casing there, but your temps is definitely high. Even my p4 2.8 on a SFF with tiny fan generate 50C idle, best is you re-seat your HSF to be sure. (dont forget thermal paste)

lousy stok fan thats it or his thermal paste need new application IMO.his casing definitely got good airflow only his HSF is the major problem.
