Hmm....

You're asking me to get everyone to pay for a premium program, so that we have a database of perfectly read temps?

And I can see that you don't get the fact that no matter how good your program is, the hardware isn't adequate enough for a perfect reading.




I'm sorry, but I think it is obvious that we're not thinking on the same level here. I think I'll just let it drop, before some admin comes along and locks this.

I'm glad the praise was sincere, but "/crowd roars" just made it sound like sarcasm.

Why does it seem like this guy works for Everest or something.
Sounds pretty biased to me, unless you can get someone else on here to use those exact words to.


Anyways, stop the fighting, lets use this thread for what its meant for.
I know from experience, when I first built my system I was really careful with temps and I couldn't get a good feel for what I wanted without going through multiple threads looking for numbers. This could be a HUGE help to newcomers, so lets keep this going with just temps, no arguments. Take your Everest complaint somewhere else.

It isn't confusing to read it as long as you read the beginning on how its supposed to be made.


Thank you
:]

This thread has 482 hits, but only 12 temps.

COME ON GUYS!

We need much more info than this. If you came in here to see if your temps are similar to other people's, you probably know your temps off by heart, and your cooling system, so just give it a post, and make this much more useful!

Decided I want to resurrect this thread. I have had cause to look at it a couple of times in the last few days, and feel that we should give it another go, and try to get enough temps to make it a sticky.

My temps haven't changed since last time... still:

A64_3200+@2.4GHz/CNPS7000B-Alcu(silent)/1.5125V/37C/53C

But hopefully we can get more temps (assuming CMH is willing to update the first post to accommodate the new temps that hopefully will be added)

Well the problem is probably all the people arguing back and forth scares off anyone who wants to add data, i agree it would be a great resource, and as for the comment a while back about case fans having no affect on cpu temps I would have to disagree for the past few days I've had the side of my case off and my temps have gone up by 6 degrees celcius idle and almost 15 under load, so surely they do make a difference.

Well, summertime here and house temps are above winter temps in an effort to conserve resources by reducing air conditioning - lots of criteria that could be added to a database like CMH was attempting.

Now have 22-24 C ambient (room), 31 mobo idle, 43 cpu, 35 load mobo, 60 cpu.
Winter room is stable 20 C.

I will update if there are posts, I'm not gonna bump this up myself. I've added a link to this on my nick, so hopefully we get more traffic here....

Also, I might update the first post because I realised 100% load on Orthos gives a much lower reading than 100% load on TAT (My load was a whole 10C less with Orthos). Why this happens, I've got no idea. Will have to look for another program to load up the CPU (I have a few in mind, but I'll re-take a look at them before editing).

Added my new chip in to the list as well.

oh the joy of summer, i dont know my exact temps but my idle went up to around 32 [i only have two case fans, i had three before, i keep forgetting to put it back in haha]. Also I noticed the first hot day, after a good 2 hours of FEAR I could feel the front of my case was just burning up, but SpeedFan wasn't on my computer at the time and by the time I got it the temp went down haha.

I have used everest and it works perfectly. I also tried core temp and it seems stable, but the Orthos program doesnt seem to do anything in the way of stressing my cpu. This thread should be only for posting TEMPS, not flaming each other on which program you use.

Maybe we should just stick with Prime95. I will edit the first post again.

edit: Prime 95 still doesn't seem to bring my comp's temps up as much as TAT will.... Can someone else check this out as well?

Yep, you're right. My CPU runs way hotter using TAT than Prime95...

AMD 64 X2 3800 @2.5/1.4v/32c/44c

I have added a line asking people to use TAT if then can.

The reason I haven't added anything to the thread is I don't feel like downloading some program to see what my load temp is. I already have Super_Pi I don't feel like getting another.

Plus as long as my system is stable with what I do I don't care if it runs hot. For example my machine at work:
CPU: AMD Athlon XP 2800+ (Barton) , 2.09 GHz
Idle: 52C

Okay, fair enough that you don't want to download programs.

If you have any other way to read idle and load temps, feel free to use them and post. At this moment, because we're not asking for screenies, anything goes.

That was with Asus PC Probe.

With PC Probe II, on a A64 X2 3600+ 1.9Ghz AM2 with stock hsf but with AS Ceramique it idles at 31C (25C ambient room temp) and under full load on both cores with SuperPi it climbs to 46C.

Interesting note, when I put that X2 system together I knew it wouldn't ever be pushed hard so I thought the stock thermal material would be sufficient. I placed it on without much of a problem, the heatsink did shift a bit as I was trying to get it latched down but nothing bad. During the Vista install at the first reboot I entered the BIOS to make sure it wasn't going to try and boot off the DVD again and while in there the CPU was at 63C. So I got out of there and powered off and cleaned that crap off and put some Ceramique on it and had a huge drop in temps obviously.

When I took the stock off there were no obvious 'flaws' in the paste, so I have no idea wtf was wrong.

On a side note I like Ceramique much better than AS 5.

I have a AMD 3800x2 @2.16GHz and it runs 40C idle and 49C underload. Can we have one of these topics about Videocard temps or are we allowed to add them in here, Yes I do see where it says Your "cpu" temps. Just a thought... anyway my vid. temps are 56C idle and 95C underload

Well, given that these databases require huge number of people participating to actually have any value, and the limited participation so far, PLUS the fact that there are way more selection of video cards than CPUs, I don't think there would be any point having video card temps here....

Besides, you didn't really mention the video card you're using....

I'll add your CPU temps anyway. (BTW, please read first post on how to post your temps, make my life that much easier, thanks )

i use mbm5 to check my temps and for my cpu it can vary a lot because i put a bfg 6800 gs oc in recently and it's upped my case temp massively but i'll post what my temps are usually anyway.

Athlon XP-M 2600+ Barton@2GHz/stock for amd athlon/1.56 (stock)/36-38/43-45

case temps can vary between 28 and 38 C so obviously blowing hot air onto a hot heatsink doesn't cool it down much but i'm going to look into some zalman cooling for cpu and gpu.
that case temp is with 4 case fans as well, 1x 120mm and 3x 80mm

o.O, a mobile processor, the first on the list
