Athlon 3200+ Temps

As for Thermaltake grease being the same as Artic Silver. That is definitely wrong. While it does the same job, it doesn't do it anywhere near as well. If you can use Artic Silver 5. And when applying any thermal compound use the thinnest layer possible. Too much can actually act as an insulator and keep the heatsink from working. How many times am i going to have to see this crap about AS. It's been proven to be BS many times over. AS5 will work no more than 1-2C better than any other decent compound. And probably no better than my $.001 a pop wheel bearing grease. Speaking of whichg i haven't updated in months. Come Sept. 1 it will be 1 year since proving this crap to people. that's when I removed my old "real" HS compound and used some 30 year old wheel bearing grease I found in the garage. A couple of days after installing it temps where actually 1C lower than prior. So how's it doing now, over 10 month later. You be the judge. Ambient temp is 25C.

You really messed something up. |

Not likely. You really messed something up. I really think you will find that Wes is a bona fide expert, rest assured of that. He doesn't have to argue and spends his time helping a lot of people. I might not use axle grease either, but that's not the point. The *average* temp of the MB can indeed be higher than CPU. Not for me, maybe not for you, maybe not often, but if the CPU cooling and airflow really works, why the hell not? The HIGH temps are 20 degrees apart and the table appears perfectly logical to me. best, Ian. |

Not likely. You really messed something up. When people are ignorant they should just keep their fingers idle so as not to prove it to the world. The above temps are correct. the MB sensor is at the back in between the bottom 2 pci slots. I've got 4HDTV tuner cards in the bottom 4 slots and an ide raid card in the top slot next to the video card filling up every slot on the MB. In case you don't know it, which I'm sure is true, tuner cards produce more heat than any other PCI card you'll ever plug in to a PCI slot. Now go see if you messed your pants. -- Want the ultimate in free OTA SD/HDTV Recorder? http://mythtv.org http://mysettopbox.tv/knoppmyth.html Usenet alt.video.ptv.mythtv My server http://wesnewell.no-ip.com/cpu.php HD Tivo S3 compared http://wesnewell.no-ip.com/mythtivo.htm |

Don't waste your breath! ;-) What I'm suffering from mostly at the moment is ambient temperature, which has been in the 30s with little moving air. I think we sometimes overlook that you need to try to make the PCs surroundings suitable, rather than solely concentrating on the innards. I just get disappointed when it's actually cold (to the hand) inside the case and the CPU hits 54. I do have a tuner etc, lots of PCI. I haev no idea where the sensor is though on my mobo. Anyway, a the moment I don't think my system has heat related issues. Cheers! |
