DanTheGamer11 Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 That might be it's max RPM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Physical limitation of the stock cooler.. thats why most OC'ers don't use the stock cooling solutions. What are your temps anyway? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wevsspot Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Physical limitation of the stock cooler.. thats why most OC'ers don't use the stock cooling solutions. ^ +1 The highest I've ever seen one is 2101 RPM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d6bmg Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Yes, stock cooler can't go beyond 2000rpm. Blame Intel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonerboy779 Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Yes, stock cooler can't go beyond 2000rpm. Blame Intel. Why blame them for a product that functions exactly as specified? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d6bmg Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) ^ Cause, that stock cooler is nothing but a cr@p. It would have been a better option if 2500K & 2600K are being sold without the 'cooler'.

It would have been a better option if 2500K & 2600K are being sold without the 'cooler'. It may be crap for our intents and purposes but when used as specified it will work fine and allow the chip to run within its thermal boundaries all day long for as long as it may live. Intel have been pretty good about building cooling solutions that will let their product live a long and fruitful lifespan in all these poorly ventilated builder systems.

d6bmg Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 ^ You are absolutely right. But what I mean to say when they are selling unlocked processor, they should assume that these processors are not for those who will run the chips in their specified boundaries. Ain't it right? Stock cooler will not be a problem with S or T series processors, but for K series ones, well, that's what I'm talking about. p.s. seems to be a bit more ot.

Well you do realize people can and do buy Alienware desktops with unlocked CPUs and if you bother to crack them open the stock heat sync is there smiling at you. Just because it's unlocked doesn't mean in will be overclocked. Even in a "gaming" prebuilt. Most prebuilts, the rigs the majority of average buyers have only stock cooling and too much of the time no case fans. Also companies strive to sell you crap you won't use ie higher end CPUs because you will "need it" as well as ridiculous amounts of ram which they sometimes install with 32 bit OS which is stupid. The coolers work but not well enough for the enthusiast and over clocking community. Which I don't know I guess regrettably isn't the dominant market share for companies. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 The last "K" series cpu (3930k) I got didnt have a cooling solution included with it (it would have been added to my collection of stock fhs on a shelf anway.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a lot of them get run at stock speeds Well you do realize people can and do buy Alienware desktops with unlocked CPUs and if you bother to crack them open the stock heat sync is there smiling at you.

Why do you think they did not include one on the 3960 and 3930? They knew these chips were going to the extreme user who would not use the stock thermal solution.
