QUOTE(Kataro @ May 14 2007, 03:53 PM) I think he means your mobo which you have very high temp have problem...even thought both mobo is same, 1 of it might have problem in the temp probe... Yup. That's what I mean. You were thinking that your E4 had that problem but it was normal when you switch rig. Ever consider switching the E6 to the E4 rig and vice versa?  Wow! Isn't 63'c for one core high? BTW, noticed that your TCaseMax is 67'c. What is the recommended safe max core temp? |

QUOTE(gsan @ May 14 2007, 05:26 PM) erm... I was thinking to do that before but it really kinda trouble to make it, somemore have to waste the AS5 Sorry. What I meant was how close can we get to TCaseMax without increasing the risk of damage to our CPU? What would be a recommended safe range? e.g. if my TCaseMax is 65'c, should I OC until 60'C or can I go higher? btw, we always wish to get the highest TCaseMax value in order to overclock to the max. the higher the value, the longer range of the proc reach that value before it prime fail. eg, if the TCaseMax is 65'c, mean that your proc mostly will prime failed when around that value. the TCaseMax of my X2 E4 is only 59'c, that's why it only can hit up to 2.5GHz since priming it the temp. is around 58-60'c. |

Welcome back irangan!
 Since you're the noctua expert, can I just ask whether the Noctua NH-U12F would be more efficient if I stuck a heat-sink at the flat base? I mean, there's such a nice empty space at the base!!!  |

So did anybody try to stick a heat-sink at the base? Seems like such as waste of space!!!

QUOTE(akachester @ May 30 2007, 01:49 PM) Yea, that is the one. The problem is, Noctua did not label that 3pin connector as the ULNA adaptor. I thought it was like an extension for 3pin connectors so i use it..LOL... LOL! Luckily you found out!!! I just cannot imaging you coming to this thread and started saying bad things about the Noctua!!! Maybe irangan should state it clearly in his post about what an ULNA is. Some noob might just also think it is an extension! |

For those with the noctua (NH-U12F), I've noticed something interesting.
I realized that the steel clips for fan mounting can be mounted higher or lower. As such, you don't have to put your fan at the centre of the heatsink. I mean, look at your HSF. Because the heatsink is squared while your fan is rounded, your lower outer fins are not in direct air flow. And another thing, notice that the top most fins are usually at room temperature!! (meaning that they do not need the fan up high) So what I did was lower the fan as close to the bottom as possible so that more fins are exposed to direct air flow!!! (the steel clips allow you to do that)Dunno whether this will affect the cooling power of the HSF but I believe it would. Just that I can't get a constant ambient temperature to test this....... |
