i tried converting 4 videos at once to give my overclocked q6600 to a max of 100%... im wondering, if this temperature is still acceptable?

im using C2Q Q6600 processor and ASUS P5K Pro motherboard, all with stock cooling, and in a normal room temperature (no aircond)

hmm.....kinda high imo....

try to use less vcore or downclock it a lil more bro.....

try to keep it under 65 if possible

for me too, is kind of a high temp.
i think if u wish to stick with it, better change ur cooling.
or u can follow what tkh_1001 said.

core temp always higher rite...instead of real temp..

Depend on tjmax
If tjmax is same,all the temp is same

i've downclocked back to my previous 3ghz... but according to core temp, my idle temp is still at 50+... but my asus mobo utilities shows otherwise :S... wats going on =.="

and the Vid in core temp seems to be different than in my asus mobo utilities as well =.="... i know i've set it to 1.216

read this link n u shall understand why theres different value between core temperature n the cpu temperature

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/666785

n the VID of ur proc is 1.3v.... VID is the default voltage of ur proc... the one shown on asus probe is cos ur mobo have auto-downclocked ur proc already via EIST..... it will reduce the voltage altogether when this function is enabled

after reading those articles you linked, i get the picture... wat i'd like to know now, is at wat temperature for core and cpu is the safest for my proc? is 70+ c for core temp considered acceptable? as for cpu, i believe 60 and below is safe.. sry im kinda new to this core temp thing >"<

well... like i told u at the first post....

normally ppl wud recommend to keep it below 65 for the core temperature

i see... i guess... ill just stick to 3ghz until i change my cooling system then T_T... thanks for the info guys ^^

by da way wat cooling u used bro... if u wan to get cooler better ask taiko tkh cause he do selling cooling system

he used stock cooling.
taiko tkh got CCF and KW for grab

TS..get new cooling lar..Better cooling-> Better temperature..

i've settled my problem!!! just by adding additional 2 fans, i've got my core and cpu temp reduced by 10% wwwwwwww... btw, what cooling would you guys recommend?

i like sunbeam core contact freezer

For ts. U should have brought this topic to the 'Air Cooling Discussion Thread V3' Here
