Well i have finished setting up the new Neo2 and 3200+

Man i had a handful, ran into issues with xp-90 and XL Pros. Having LED Activity Lights on the Pros, since the ram is higher then normal i couldnt fit my xp-90 in
So XL Pros Neo2 xp-90 combo is NO GO!!!

So i had to use my Venus for now, well maybe later ill get new ram.

Ok havent had any time to o/c, so what temps are you guys getting on 3200+ 90nm and Neo2. Bios reports 39c idle and Speedfan reports 34c. Well ill have to give a good 200Hrs for as5 to settle though and then i can compare.

Pretty pist that i cant use the xp-90 with Vantec tornado Fan, well using the fan right now on the side panel as intake, blowing right at the hsf. Man its fricking loud at full speed, thankfully my case has to fan contoller nobs.

Well so far so good, so can you guys post your cpu temps and sandra memory bandwith benchie. I got 5700/5660 something like that, use to get on the 3500+ 0.13 5900/5825 but thats 200Mhs faster.

Cheers,

33°C Idle and 48°C Load, 2750 MHz @ 1,55V. With 200 MHz on Rams i have
5850/5770 MB/s with Sandra. With 255 MHz @ Rams i have 7520/7440.

33c idle in bios?
Nice temps by the way, ahh just noticed that you not on air!

Hmmm...strange when i select vcore in bios 'Startup' the bios reports 1.36 so does cpu-z, is that normal or its just undervolting from 1.4?


At the above according to Speedfan the load temp is 46c while priming. Seems to high, maybe a bad mount but i doubt it, i think ill need some time for as5 to settle. What you guys think?

In Bios it isn't @ Idle, but there i have 37°C. Other Temps was from Aida32/Everest. Dont think 46°C @ Load is that bad with air!

Yeah i dont mind it, the concern i have is that others temps are lower.
So im just thinking bad mount or time for as5 to settle?

Like for my 3500+ 0.13 cpu i got that @ 1.5 vcore, so it seems strange.

The 0,09nm cpus are a bit hotter then the 0,13nm, thats all normal!
Bcs the dies of the 0,09nm are bit smaller!
