no lar..last time i'm using WC... and now changing to hyper6..juz for fun..huhuhuh...

idle around 50-51..
60-63 when full load @ 3.9 @ default vcore.. but, the temp..can consider high edi..

Greetings all 478er'

I'm using stock cooling for my Soc 478 3.0 (details as per my siggy).

This afternoon after finished playing my NFS Carbon, i opened my Abit EQ and was shocked. Temp was 97C , so I let it idle for a while but temp still remain at 96C Does anyone have this kind of prob before ?

Pls not tat system was stock and totally no oc. another thing, when u start the system and check on Abit EQ immediately, temp is 57C-60C izzit normal ?

Do i need to chance to 3rd party HSF, any recommendation ? or if anyone wanna sell theirs can PM me.

Thx.

97 degree C? Won't causing restart?

abit eq sux! i dun used it.. hav bugs mebe..

wao...62'C on hyper 6??

i cant believe it......too impresive!! i think is on extreme cooling in order to get 5GHz. Really hope that my stepping is E0.

Where to get new S478 Motherboard now?

Most of the shop don't sell already.

I don't think that's possible. The processor gets restarted whenever temperature reaches 80 C. Processors don't go up to 57C - 60C without load.

Something's definitely wrong with your temperature sensor.

anyone any suggestion on replacement of intel original fan which is extreamly noisy. ?

go for watercooling

at stock with 97C??? i think over 80C already hang or restart the computer. Is the reading not correct?? maybe you can try touch the heatsink with your finger, if you cant ly your finger on it for 5seconds, then its time for you to get a better HFS.

I think not all mobo can support this feature, some mobo still can operating at high temp but some will automatic restart or shut down directly...

but if the reading is correct, then cpu should be throttle at that temp.

When i chk Abit EQ on CPU temp setting, max temp is 80C.
on restart, tat's d funny thing, system is still stable even at 97C.

like nezla_ax & wishbone said, might be bug in abit eq. bty anyone got any suggestion which software is better to monitor the system ?

used my finger to test the hsf, but hsf doesnt feels very hot, only normal (touchable). unfortunately my last finger got hit by the xtra 120mm fan, now blue black, luckily didnt break / cut off my finger.

Ouch, sorry for that. if the temp is not so hot, i think is the reading problem. ever try to flash the bios?? maybe newer bios will give a accurate reading. I think most software temp monitor the temp from the reading of bios, so if bios temp is high, software reads high also. Just my 2 cents.

Tot i saw one thread about 478ers stating their proc type & speed, cpu cooler type, mobo, gc atc.

can some1 pls provide link to tat coz its good reference for ppl like me to c which cpu cooler to buy ba. Thx

@ekestima ,IS7-E loading for so high temperature is preety impossible,even a prescott core also not going for so hot.What version of bios is your IS7-E using?

get those great performing coolers like Noctuas or Thermalright Ultra120

why not try to use speedfan or everest home/ultimate edition to monitor ur temps?97c can almost boil water already lor..or a good way to know if its really 97c,just touch the mobo

I think could be system bug. Tried again but manage to get 43C idle and 56C load.

like u said i think need t chk bios.

43C idle, 56C load is more acceptable. haha....like Pengster said, Get Noctua from irangan or get TR Ultra120 from ShawTy.

Make sure your casing airflow is good enough. Bad airflow easilly rise up the cpu temp.

wahlao.running disk defragmenter,disk cleanup,speedfan and firefox = 100% cpu usage no background apps except antivirus somemore.

time to change my rig
