I got my load temp after playing battlefield 2 for about six hours straight with my friends.

On all high settings expect for anti-alasing with was at 2x and dynamic light with was at medium, with adaptive anti-alasing at performence.

use orthos to get your load temps, you may be surprised.

Whats orthos, can you give a link please.

sorry, here you go:

thx :giddy:

basically you extract all files into a folder, then run orthos.exe, select small fft's as the test, and then click start. Run for a couple minutes and you'll see your temps rise until they peak. Also realize that orthos is primarily used for stress testing overclocks. If your computer can run orhtos for 6 or more hours without warnings or errors your system is stable.

Is the test only for dual cores though, I only have a single.

it might work with solo cores. hold on I'll test it on my laptop.

actually here is the solo core version:

Wow. And I bought a fan controller because the noise coming from my 23dB fans are keeping me awake. And now, I'm thinking of getting a new case with a front lid because the lights coming from my fan controller is keeping me awake....

And for Stick'o ram's temps, I'm leaving it on the list for the next couple of days till its updated. BF2 temps aren't really the hottest it'll go. As for Orthos, you'll have to run it, and leave it on for a few minutes before reading the temps.

I ran orthos for a full ten minutes and I got a new high: 90 degrees (f), or approx. 32 degrees (c). I ran it on cpu stress.

Remeber my cpu is based on the newer 90nm core (Venice) instead of its ancestor Newcastle and Clawhammer which were 130nm and the cpu is still the same size meaning that it has more room.

Having the newer core means they can fit more stuff in the same space, but it doesn't mean that it would produce less heat. The reason miniturization usually produce less heat is because they can reduce the number of volts going through it, but since they usually pack more stuff into it anyway, requiring more volts, this advantage is moot.

Its akin to drawing a picture with a blunt 8B pencil, and then drawing the exact same picture with a sharp HB pencil. If you don't add any details, its the exact same picture.

Anyway, I've updated the load temps. I'll accept that your load is 32C, there's really no point in lying anyway. Just get back if you ever notice it getting any higher for any reason, the idea of this thread is to note the highest possible temps reached with those settings.

Got myself a new CPU and HSF

AMD Athlon 64 X2 5600+ @ 3066Mhz x2/Coolermaster Hyper TX/1.4/38c/48c

*edit* manged to get the voltage back to stock (1.4v)

*edit* due to stablity issues had to change the CPU frenquancy

E6600/Stock/Stock/46c/52c

updated, keep them coming!

Got a secound rig up and running it use my old AM2 3800+ singe core that I got to 2.75GHZ, here what ive got it at atm

Athlon AM2 3800+ @ 2.64 GHZ/Stock cooler off a Athlon AM2 5600+ x2/1.35v/39c/45c

I would of put it straight to 2.75ghz but I cant change the vcore

Might have a bit of a play and see if I can get it to 2.7ghz, tonight

e6750@4.4Ghz/1.47v/40c/55c/ coolit freezone(modded)

AMD 2 6000
CORE 0: 24 C
CORE 1: 30 C

And the over cloaking begins
BTW water cooled with 6 case fans

Here is mine, note CPU is at 2.66ghz, and I have sub 20$ TMG i1 cooler, but it is badass and is now like 30.



GPU: Stock cooling, but is gonna be replaced with water this week.

P4 478 Prescott @ 2.8Ghz. Idle temp 20-22C depending on ambient, 29C at max load. Cooled using a Thermaltake BigTyp 120 VX with 120mm fan. 2 Case fans. Can run at up to 3.4Ghz but not very stable because mobo is no good for OC, temp at load is still 29C when at 3.4Ghz.

Erm.. i might as well as naive as a newbie as i have no idea on how to get the temperature for "Load"

but as Idle
I got my temperature from SpeedFan 4.33

Core 2 Quad E6600
CM GeminII
Seven Fans, two on the side, two on GeminII, one on top of the Chassis and Two Comes with the Chassis (one bLowing at the harddrive and one behind the Chassis).
Air Conditionered Room @ 20 Cel

Temp1: 34C
Temp2: 43C
Temp3: 25C
HD0:30C
HD1:31C
Temp1: 40C
Core 0: 18C
Core 1: 18C
Core 2: 18c

Readings from PC Probe that comes with my mobo reads that
MB :43C
CPU: 33c(lowest is 31C/highest reach is 41C(No AC, window opens and it was noon and windless))

I don't know if Everest is accurate but here it says
Mobo 21C
CPU 31C
Aux 17C
GPU 56C
First HD 30C
Second HD 31C
