Hemidare Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Hey my cpu is hitting the low 70's while running Orthos. Is that to high for comfort? Or should i try and reseat my heatsink? Its the stock one of course. I upped my voltage by the smallest amount possible. So it is just barely above stock voltage and it is running @ 3 ghz. I have a very good case for air flow. So are those the temps i can expect with just the stock heatsink or should like i said above reseat the heatsink? I am so lost on this motherboard and cpu. I wish more people had this motherboard. :sad: On this forum anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
killagorilla187 Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 70's are too high IMO how do the temperatures compare on all four cores? If they are all the same you should get a new heatsink. If there is more than a 8-10 C difference you need to reseat the heatsink. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemidare Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Yeah i let it prime all night and the temps are all roughly the same. I let it prime all night like that. But it is stable and yes i have a artic freezer on the way for it. Yeah i know not the best one out there but it should suffice until i choose either WC or extreme air. I want to make an entry into the OC database but my pic above is showing the wrong clocks. I am running @ 3ghz right now for 11.5 hours as shown in the pics. Should i reinstall and do the chipset drivers again or what? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Are you using an old version of CPU-Z? It should be reading correctly. If it's current, it looks like you have C1E enabled. Drops the multi and the voltage when not in use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemidare Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 I turned off c1e no use in having it on i dont think. Anywho i have cpuz reading it right but not coretemp. Oh well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
