The Conroe CPU Temp. Thread

[Chunkers]

Same temperature weirdness here.

E6600 B2 @ 3000
G.Skill GBPK 2Gb
P5B Deluxe
1900XT
Arctic Cooler 7 Pro
Akasa Eclipse 62 case (big!) with 2 x 120 mm fans
Tagan PSU (580W I think)

Ambient : 28 C

Idle (333 x 6) : 46 C

Load
Orthos : Coretemp / TAT 57C, Asus 65C
TAT Stress test : 68 C <---- Toasty!
Dual Prime : 57C

No stability issues.



System is stable, no extra CPU volts (NB tweaked a bit) and CPU will definitely go higher if I can get the temps under control - happy for now though!

Cheers

Chnks

My idle temps are fine, it's just the load is a LOT hotter for some reason.

Processor: E6600 @ 3.2Ghz | (Retail, Stepping 6 B2) | 1.37v
Motherboard: Asus P5B Deluxe (BIOS 0711) with custom NB HS
Memory: Corsair XMS2 PC6400 (4 4 4 12)
Cooling: Scythe Ninja Plus | Sharkoon Silent Eagle 120mm | AS5
Case: Lian Li PCV-1000 Plus
Idle (MB/CPU): 30/37
Load (MB/CPU): 34/68 max Dual Prime (CPU stress test)
Ambient: 22C
All temps with Asus Probe and CoreTemp (both give same temps)

37->68 is a massive jump... the biggest on this thread AFAIK.. what gives?

The HS heatpipe isn't even hot under load... don't know how it suppose to be at 68C?

i also have a 30c delta, with a SI-120 and a Panaflo M1, the IHS looks kinda OK though, it must be a bad contact between the core and the IHS

[ssabripo]

well, I reckon its best to have 30C deltas than smaller deltas at higher temps!

at least you are idling (which is the bulk of your time) at 40 and below.....many of us are idling high 40's to 50/51C, and load to high 50's to mid 60s.

I'm at 47C-55/56C idle-load

man there is no way a delta of 30c is better than anything........that is rise above the idle temp when under load........big delta = high temps

for me with my idle of 45ish that is 75 under load (core temp)

no no...I didn't say is a good thing

I said, I would rather have this:
34-63 idle/load

than this:
50-61 idle/load

guys ... when your CPUs are on load for a while, lets say leave it priming for an hour or so, is the heatsink hot to touch ? at over 50C it should be ...

my Core duo shows 55C but when I touch the heatsink its not HOT at all, certainly not as hot as the block on my celeron D which runs at 51C , when touched, my fingers burn.

touch fingers = burn
>60-65C for sure (hot coffee temperature)

When you are using the probe on the heatsink it will show a little less than the actual thermal probe on the chip. I think the problem is more that the temperature for the CeleronD is UNDERstated.

wow didn't realize this took off. I added a link to TAT up there. Thanks for all the posts!

I never got above 64C running Orthos dual prime for 44 hours.
