err..
Digi doc sucks arse at cold temps.. this is a given..
I am trying to get an on-die (well.. as close as possible.. like you can with the digi doc.. except.. IT SUCKS AT COLD TEMPS!)
temp reading..
My asus board reads high.. plus it's this tiny temp probe and besides.. it's covered with a 1/4" thick piece of neoprene and silicon sealant.. so it's virtually useless.
I need to get a temp reading of the core with my direct die system.. I am measuring the temp now at the suction line.. 2" above the outlet of the block.. and it's reading -20F.. using a digital temp probe I got from radio shack..
Anyway. I am running a 1.2ghz Tbird at 1566mhz all by the multiplier on my asus a7v266-e. It's 133FSB x 11.5 multiplier.. Highest this CPU will go.. I once saw 1600mhz.. but when I came out of bios it wouldn't boot at that again.. and I can only do 1.85v on this board.. thinking of doing the volt mod.. anywho.. with -20F on the suction line.. and running the low side at 0PSI.. My propane should be boiling at something like -40F.. which means the block is something like.. -40F.. heh.. so I'm guessing my core is like.. -25F at the least.. It's well below -4F I think.. which is what I need.. -20C under full load..
Anywho.. The only person to actually KNOW the answer to this question will probably be aenigma.. this is just pissing me off anyway.. I tried to rig the temp probe from radio shack with a thin digi doc temp probe.. but the thing doesn't work.. it always readings 125F and up.. it won't give me the correct temp reading at all..
