hmmm i got the almost the same prob with u...mine was 54 on air cond room.. with TT big typhoon on PenD 3.4 no OC...

tried - open casing, update bios, remount... haizzz... any other solution ?

I also using TT big typhoon VX on 6300c2d. The temps which i'm getting is almost the same as the stock cooler. around 48c . Quite disappointing actually.

Hi,i'm using x2 3800+am2,idle temp about 48c
when i ply carbon with full effect,it reach 60c,ez normal?
using stock cooler btw...

yes. the dualcore am2s are very hot.... urs is technically normal di if using stock cooling..

ok,since it normal,i'll adjust the temp warning from the default 60c to 63c.
the warning sound was noisy

Can i add one industrial use cooling fans on my CPU ? If not mistaken, my father get it from some compressor and it is power from alternating current.
Thanks in advance

errr.... i think industrial type produce too much heat and use more electricity. not suitable IMO

my friend's pc always freeze and i suspecting because of overheating

his pc specs


the rear fan spin at max <3000 rpm only when testing using dell diagnostics.......is't normal and ok??
using speedfan 4.31, the only reading available is HD0 or is't HDD? 60'C

and this is the original topic with reference pics and more details (not getting much attention overthere)
Dell Dimension 4700 always freeze/hang

from the picture that you posted, there is several things that you need to do to solve the heat problem.

1. Must build an airflow in your casing.
Why?
A proper ventilation will keep your casing temp low because cooler air can get in your casing and hot air will be suck out. Else, like your case the heat produced by your computer parts will trap in the casing thus increase the temp.

Method:
Remove the green panel that attached to the rear of your casing. The rear fan will act as an output for your casing. Then check the front part of your casing whether is there a fan or not. If dont have, add one yourself. that one will act as your input. After doing that, your casing will have some basic ventilation.

Of course, you can always choose to change those fan to high power type for better results.

2. Manage your wire in your casing
Why?
Wire management as messy as yours will disrupt the airflow and indirect increase the casing temp

Method:
Just make your wires out of the way tie or hide it behind your mobo is the easiest to do so.

3. Need a third party CPU Cooler
Why?
errr... how to say this? Dell stock cpu cooler SUCK!! it wont cool down your processor fast enough especially your 3.0E that famous for producing alot of heat.

Method:
Prepare a budget at least RM150 or RM200+. Read some of thread in this forum and decide which one suit you better. Thermalright, Scythe, Thermaltake and Noctua are some of the famous and reliable CPU Cooler Manufacturer.

Hope this help you.

new prob here..
recently my psu kinda kaboom!
so,my bro buy the cap ayam brand 500W,
when i try 2 on my cpu back..it always off after few secs..
i try 2 on my cpu early in da moning,look at bios..
da cpu temp's when as high as 93º
then it off automatically
wat da hell happen?da cpu is like tryin 2 boil a glass of water!
so..

Bro, irangan, you can't fit in a 3rd party heatsinks on dell's motherboard, as their mounting position is so different with what intel aligned...

I've sold 3 different type of Dell Optiplex pc, and trust me, all of them have different mounting position compared to the original intel mounting position...

What's you're full pc spec, state all the things here, even the harddisk drive and optical drive also, i suspect that you're psu is underpowered..

Bout the cpu temp as high as 93degrees, there should be a bug in you're motherboard sensor, the same problem i faced with my P5WD2-W premium before i send it for RMA purpose...

Give us you're full pc specs bro...

hmmm... i never noticed that... IMO, Dell rig cooling suck.. wont cool the processor fast enough.

maybe your heastsink fan didnt get enough juice from that cap ayam psu
the fan connector is't 4 or 3 pin type? connect to mb or direct to psu?


really?? omg
i thought wanna suggest him to buy sycthe katana cu or noctua u9 and add additional 2 panaflo fans , but now

curious
im using athlon64 3000 1.8ghz cooled with thermalright xp90 and as5..but i can feel that the temp is too hot..even idle oso reached approx 50C..is this considered normal?

i use p4 2.4ghz prescott..the first time i use it the temperature is 65 degree celcius..the im thinking to buy a new heatsink ..but eventually i checked my proc and clean the old thick thermal paste on it with cotton but and the temperature drop to 47-57 celsius...and after that i clean it with alcohol i finally got a temperature of 57-58.....but if i on the aircon in my room, the temperature is 38.......cool maybe......only using the stock hsf....

your temp is abit higher than normal. the performance of xp90 series heatsink lies on what type fan you using. change the fan to a more powerful type and you will see difference in performance

im using tt 90mm smartfan..but not at full speed as it will produce an annoying vibrate sound..sumtimes i increase the speed but not full only when playing games..

btw i barely clean properly the as5 when i took off the heatsink..
i juz cleaned it using tissue then reapply the as5..is this also a factor of my high temp?

hop dat those experts can help me out ere..which temp shd be more reliable?



thanx

my temperaute with case open 55C and close is 60C
caused by airflow?
how to improve without any chopping.....
using centurion 5, the famous bad engineered 80mm input 120mm output.....
cables all hide adi not blocking airflow

I would say that the TAT temperature would count.

80c is scorching hot! and the other core @ 75c ?? thats the biggest difference i've seen so far.

You should seriously consider reapplying AS5 to your heatsink if not get an aftermarket one.
