View Full Version : My setup shutdown itself

My E6600 is setup with TEC and Apogee-GTX water block. But when overclocked it shutdown itself after few seconds when it turned on.

I put the TEC right ontop of the cpu then Apogee above the TEC.

It seems to me that the cpu overheated so it shutdown the system.
Please help me.
Duh

No cold plate between the Tec and Cpu?

yes, what is that for?
And someone says you can't overclock the c2d with TEC. Mine is 226 watts.

you have to have a cold plate between tec and cpu! also you can clock with tec but no better then with plain old water.

Hello littleowl, I've read your post that tec is no good for c2d. And I've tried, i'm not going to use tec anymore. :(

don't quite just because you have a problem. Tec works great on a c2d just not for an extreme overclock!! I just reread this thread and looked at the info a little more! This is what I am seeing you just did and is easy to fix... What I see is you need a cold plate! You are only putting the heat of the cpu on one part of the tec an the rest of the tec overheats and takes the heat of the cpu up causing it to shut down. The cold plate helps take the heat and spread it all the way over the tec so that it works right and don't over heat itself like you just did.

Hi littleowl.

I was planning for some crazy overclocking on my E6600 so I don't think I'll but them back together. But if it lets me run the cpu at 4G or above then I will.

on an e6600 I don't think you will have much luck getting 4ghz even under phase change!

You absolutely need a cold plate of at least 3mm thickness.

If you already have one and the system shutdown itself so quickly with a coldplate: Could you have mounted the TEC upside down or switched wires? So the side on the CPU would get hot and the side facing the waterblock would get a bit cooler...

Did you have the cold side toward the CPU?

how much did you read about tec's before you purchased your 'setup'? sounds like you are missing the fundamentals of this method

I hope that is sarcasm. Many hit it under water i cant even imagine phase.

not really I guess I am talking more running 24/7 running 100% load at all times. I don't think the e6600 can handle it for more than a year. I am also thinking of temps and my house temps.

Come on, a CPU lifespan of more than a year is for office PCs running Word and Excel...

Like I said I use and abuse my chips I don't just run stupid office stuff! :D

When idel my CPU get 7*C, so I don't think I inverse my wires.

Removed my TEC and now even stable at 3.9 with 2*12 BlackIce GTX and Apogee GTX block.

I spent a large amount of money to buy the 40 Amp powersupply, but my 226Watts TEC only draws 18A at 15.3 Volt.:shrug:

You can sell it to me if you'd like, what brand is it? And 24 volts?

Not so owl. Some have done it on air. Mine though will post and almost get into windows at 4G on water but its at 1.55 Volts. Im not willing to push it further without some sort of extreme cooling.

yeah I know this and the way tec works you will not be able to do that good with that high a voltage.. I can do much better oc with plain old water then I can with Tec do to the way it all works.

This set up was very similar, no coldplate, E4300. It would hold around 0C idle, but because the peltier's hot and cold side were not it full contact I would get overheating under heavy loads.

I'm testing this one now:

Cold plate is on the thin side.
