SS Temp Monitoring I7 920 ( not holding heatload )

S1N3 · 11-18-2009, 09:29 PM

I just installed my SS on my 920 tonight, I'm a little worried about my temps. Currently I'm at 21x multi 210 block at 1.32v. This is known to be semi stable on water and I thought a good starting point to determine if the SS was efficient enough to handle my heatload. The SS holds at -55F at idle and -30F under load however I can see Core Temp climb from a inaccurate -6 on all cores too an average of 20c under load. I understand that Core Temp does not report correctly at sub Zero but can I rely on Core Temp at all? I've reset the mount several times and nothings changed, the tim appears to be spread evenly and the evap seems to be in direct contact.

I'm seeing similar temps reported from RealTemp on a single stage (OCZ CryoZ) with a 920 D0 at 1.35Vish.

WOW, I think those are rated at 130watt load... I must be doing something wrong with my mount. I didn't expect such a large delta,

I also know you can't trust Tcase and Tjunction at those temp ranges though... <shrug>

Realtemp and coretemp dont work with sub zero temps i have the same problem.

Realtemp is reporting -6 idle and the temp probe says -40 on my vapochill Ls.
