Solved What are you're Cpu and System Temps ?

[Pash00n]

TMPIN0 is supposedly my CPU's temperature (AMD Athlon II x2 240 Regor 2.8 GHz) When I was rendering a 1080p video file, the load temperature peaked at 48'C. Didn't get any higher than that. This is on a stock heatsink, fan, and thermal paste.

TMPIN1 is the northbridge. It never exceeds 42'C, but back when I used the integrated video, it did.

I'm not sure what TMPIN2 is.. if I had to guess, I'd say it's the thermal readings?

Anything under ACPI and "AMD Athlon II x2 240" seems to be screwed up.

My GPU core heats up to as high as 70'C during a heavy game, but it's fanless too.

your gpu is fanless and gets up to 70C thats not bad 4670 ? you sure it didnt come with any fan ?

No fan, just a really big heatsink with 2 copper pipes.

That thing is huge, dude.

That thing is huge, dude.

I agree. I honestly don't know how it fits into my old ATX case (along with a PCI card on the bottom most slot!) It also has a fan header on it in the event I want to mod it. The copper pipes on the end is touching my old, blue IDE cable a bit but that's about it.

I wanted the fanless version because I don't do a lot of OCing and I have too many fan failures with video cards.

well i hope that wont happen with the card im picking up tomorrow fan failure that is

This are mine

Mine with Prime95 torture test

Here's mine. I'm a bit disappointed, tbh, because I expected/hoped for lower temps. This was not under load, I was just browsing.

 

[LiquidSnak]

Your GPU is a little toasty for just browsing, but other than that, in my experience with intel, that's not bad temps. How is your cable management?

 

[Solarstarshines]

that gpu temp is right on those cards run that on idle

I am now a proud owner of a hd6870 and the temps are the same i have more ventalation and it is the same so was my hd5770

 

[jayarte]

Cable management is nice and neat, but I agree that a cooler temp would be nice for the gpu. Especially because it is HIS turbo V Icooler, which I believed would run nice and cool.

 

[LiquidSnak]

I keep MSI's afterburner around basically so I can control the fan. Give it a try (I remember hearing it works for cards that are not MSI too)

Here's mine: AthlonII X4 @ 2.8ghz, cooled with a Hyper 212 and some Shin-Etsu thermal paste.

I have the same heatsink do you have both fans installed it runs alittle cooler then the stock i would say and i used artic silver so it is nice

Using one fan only, it took me 3 tries of thermal paste applications until i found the sweet spot, the "let the heatsink spread the butter" method

 

[Solarstarshines]

well it might have took you a few tries but it works like it is supposed to and later you still have the option to hook on another fan which is really sweet

 

[Solarstarshines]

I have a screen shot of the cpuid hw monitor to make sure i was hitting my target also i have changed gpu's since the last post i am now running a hd6870 so it might be alittle more hotter cause i was using a hd5770 before

The icons on the far left, 3rd through 5th down, remind me of sushi. Now I am hungry

As long as you are using EIST.
Browsing the i7 930 CPU should be room temp with a water cooler.

Might want to check if everything is tight, or clean and put new paste.


My i5 750 at idle when browsing is 29 degC or less, and I have a Hyper 212 Plus air cooler.


You GPU is running cool, mine runs about 39 degC browsing.

 

[DirtyElf]

i feel like my cpu runs hot... maybe not. ambient temperature is 75.8­°F -> 24.3°C


edit: the highs were during gaming

 

[Dave76]

They are OK for the stock Intel cooler.

Your max temp is about 77.7 C,

Intel® Core™ i7-870 Processor (8M Cache, 2.93 GHz)

TCASE is the CPU case then add 5 C for the CPU core temps.

You can get a pretty good CPU air cooler for about $25 and drop those temp from 5 - 10 degrees, maybe a little more at load (gaming).
