Safe Temp

[Epicurus]

am running SuperPI 32mb Calc and as you can see from my webtemps its risen to +3 deg max

Will download prime95

 

[aXeR]

righto

 

[Epicurus]

+3.. is that ok or not???

 

[aXeR]

not too sure, id try with prime 95 for like 20-30 mins first see what result that gives. U got a mach 2 or ST?

 

[Epicurus]

got an ST

 

[aXeR]

hmmm i wud of thought u cud get a bit more out of it than that, but then again the actual case temperature is hot too, high thirties is quite hot mate. Well in my opinion anyway, but then again it is a shuttle

With my Suttle AN50R I noticed my case temps went up a little - to be honest, the best A64 socket 754 mobo is now the Asus K8V - its certainly the quickest.

HI Phil..

So are the CPU temps right??? or not?

Use Prime defo. On new p4's with HT run 2 X prime the second one with the switch A1. After their both running check that affinity is set correctly to each instance of the process

using 1 thread alone seems to heat the CPU up as hot as it gets anyway tho, doesnt it?

 

[Epicurus]

now that I know that I can re-use my string i am going to finish work a little early and take the head off and reseat it again

What temp should I get getting on idle??? rough guess

 

[standin wave]

Temperature?

If you know the heat output of your CPU then shouldn't you be able to use these graphs to see what temp you should get?

sw

Have taken the head off and used a little less string. I have then put it all back on and then off again to checked to see if there was a good contact and there was. A good imprint of AS was on the head

I am now using my laptop and on my PC I am running Prime95 for 1 hour

temps seem to be running at -5/-6 is this OK

all bios setting are default and CPU is not OC

 

[Epicurus]

OK..

I am now running Prime95 with the following setting

223x11=2455

Temp = 0deg

this guy is using an a64 shuttle mobo with 1.75vcore @2500ghz

temps are -4c underload.

Hi Epi, I've been doing a little research into these boards (and phase-change) and they basically report the temperature a little differently to the majority of other boards. It's not a fault, its the bios and cpu diode temp reporting. In actual fact, this is probably more accurate than most - so dont worry about it.
