my bad
i am currently using bigtyphoon XV with artic silver 5. i notice other people got lower temp while using this hsf..u think i have prob with my cpu temp?
Maybe you try to reinstall the HSF and reapply AS5 and see how...besides, your casing air flow also affect the performance of the HSF... and cable management also affect the air flow in a casing... there are so many factor... anyway, just try reinstall it first... Added on April 25, 2007, 8:13 pm

Ok guys, i got a weird problem here. My gf's laptop used to be running very hot. I mean, when i put the laptop to a chair for about 15-20min and take it out, you could really feel the heat at the chair.However, i didnt really test the temperature at that time.
Anyway, we went and get another piece of 1g ram for the laptop (previously running at 256MB) as well as a laptop cooler (Zalman NC-1000) yesterday in order to help decrease the temperature. When she on the laptop without using the cooler (inserted the 1g ram), put onto a chair for about 1hour, the chair aint that hot. I mean, the heat produced is less already compared to last time where you could really feel the heat produced.
Then, i installed PC Wizard to test the temperature and its just showing 36c. What might be the problem before?Cause i am pretty sure it must be running higher than 36c even when turn on for 15min.Could adding a ram help the problem?
And when the laptop cooler was used, it drop the temperature to a mere 30-31c. Great buy there..lol...
The laptop spec:
Pentium M 1.3Ghz
256MB DDR233 (Upgraded with another 1G)
I think last time it will be hot is bacause the ram have only 256MB, so it will use virtual memory when more resourse needed, so there will be more activity for your hard disk, so more heat produced... anyway, this is just my guess...
