cputemp over 100c, 4*sp2004 benchable on Air? QX6700es B3 say yes !

[VictorWang]

random pick a QX6700es B3 and asked my partner send to my Hotel,
tested on a un-moded P5W64 and that Bad bad Zalmen 9500LED.
ambient=25c

astonished me so much, asus probe read=95c, so coretemp must be over 100c+
but...still benchable 4*sp2004
volt. can be lower, but I haven't more time for testing, busy these days.
just let vcore=defult

[VictorWang]

and, 1.43v 3.75G pi_32m ok, seems good.

[Dumo]

Nice cpu Victor
Thats inferno

[Devious]

I just returned my P5W64 because it was reporting stuipidly high temps.

[VictorWang]

no, I think it's the right temp.
only about 10c lower than CoreTemp shows.

if use a Giga's mobo, shows about 15c~20c lower than coretemp!

[HamidFULL]

Nice Victor! you need watercooling

[lawrywild]

I just returned my P5W64 because it was reporting stuipidly high temps.

lol? you returned a mobo because you didn't like what temps it reported?
AHAHAHA

[afireinside]

No way it's loading 94c. Doesn't the solder on the IHS melt in the 70s?

Also I thought dual orthos still only loaded 2 cores?

[Devious]

lol? you returned a mobo because you didn't like what temps it reported?
AHAHAHA

It was showing over 95deg when priming for a few seconds @ 3.6Ghz with 1.375v ! and probably causing cpu throttling. I wanted to push 1.6v through the chip and get well over 4Ghz, could you imagine the temps then ? Complete BS, faulty in my opinion so back it went.

@.@

HAVE YOU SAW TASKMANAGER SHOWS 4THREADS 100% LOADED ?
SOLDER ON IHS MELT IN 70S ? WHERE HAVE YOU GET SUCH INFO. ?

[ScythedBlade]

Nope ... solder doesn't melt at 70s .... it melts at much higher ... i mean COME ON ... WATER BOILS at 100C .... solder so does not melt in 70 C

did u try any other mobos, i also didn't believe my temps of my 6600 on the p5b dlx. I have a 30c delta, with SI-120 and 1.425 3.4ghz i got idle of 42 ish and load of over 70 but i also tried it on the Gigabyte s3 and the temps were very simular, ofcourse measured with core temp, it could be that u just have a "Hot running" cpu, either bad IHS or not making a good contact between the core and the IHS, or mabey (i dont know how plausabe taht is) the internal cpu probes aren't calibrated, it would be really cool if the reason for high temp was figured out

[Mykou]

what about TAT temps ?

core temp more accurate than TAT ?

core temp shows me 3° higher than orthos

[Dani]

My P5W64WS Pro shows this:

- IDLE
- LOAD

as you can see, Probe shows ~3'C more than CoreTemp..

3 other boards all with normal temps, I currently have a P5B Dlx, previously I have had a bad axe and a P5W DH, see my sig, on my P5W DH duel priming at 3.94GHz temps were 60deg in core temp.

The P5W64 was bad and others have reported the same.

[Lestat]

victor at 1.32v even with a stock cooler whch is worse than that horrible zalman temps still wouldnt be almost 100c. no they wouldnt its not possible.

the only, and ONLY explanation is that the heatsink is making 10% contact and the Zalman cooling system of the heatsink is just totally fuxxored.

the thermal protection of the cpu would have kicked in anyways and turned your system off.

you can turn that off in the bios but the cpu itself still has a thermal limit and it will shut down. and you have bypassed that thermal limit already.


you might as well throw that cpu away its toast now.

man what was core temp or tat showing, were they also alot higher than on the other boards, cause if they were that just showe that they also rely on mobo readouts not just cpu, as some ppl are are claiming

man how do you figure that,

i purposly ran my conroe to see when it was gonna shut off and it was 111c measured by probe, tat or coretemp dont show above 85, and ofcourse the cpu is fine and running 24/7

oh ya i also continously ran it above 85c (tat, core temp) with orthos for few hours and its fine

The protection is triggered from the digital measurer in the cpu, not from what the motherboard/apps register. If the Kentsfield was throttling sp 2004 would report errors and stop.

[ochw]

thats hot man

Like I said, core temp hit 95 deg in seconds on the P5W64, on the other boards it didnt go higher than around 60 deg with much higher vcore and clocks.

It would also show around 60 deg in hardware monitor in bios where the other boards wouls show 25-30deg.

Im also showing pretty high temps with this mobo on phase I thought my phase needed servicing since I was showing -20c idle and I am normally way lower than that with my Chilly ... hmm...maybe ill do some more experimenting using different cooling and chips. I appreciate you bringing this up...

I second that...

I have had a couple of occasions where my phase went awry and temps hit a peak and the CPU shut down (i always bypass temps in bios). Well my e6700 suffered no ill effects and still benches fine in the 4.3ghz range and folds 24x7 at 4ghz...

So toast???...I think not

[largon]

94ºC?
No way.

Nope ... solder doesn't melt at 70s .... it melts at much higher ... i mean COME ON ... WATER BOILS at 100C .... solder so does not melt in 70 C

Intel IHS-to-die solder does actually melt at about 80ºC.

The solder I'm talking about ofcourse is not tin solder but a alloy composing mostly of gallium with some indium and tin to make it solid under ~80ºC.

How do I know?
Well, I've melted it...

no it wouldn't, it would just keep running, you can see it throttle with cpuz, or rightmark, throtle watch doesnt show it, i know i have tried it
