gravy Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 is there a utility to detect when thermal throttling kicks in? i cant find one yet, but i heard my cpu starts throttling at 70 degrees celcius i figured if intel didnt have a detection utility, i should be able to set the bios to warn at a high temp of 70, then slowly cut back the rpm of my hsf, ever so gradually, just enough to make it beep once or twice, then reference mbm to see what temp it is reading, that should tell me exactly what temp i am running instead of depending on mbm, but i really want to find out when the cpu starts throttling, if it indeed starts at 70 degrees because that would be the most accurrate as that uses the internal temp of the cpu? am i off here?

r_target Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 I think for Northwood, it's 70c; and I think Prescott is higher. I had a link, lemme look for it. Here you go, have a read ofthis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r_target Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 This one looks like fun too. I think Dangerous Figure took the HSF completely off his Northwood and it ran for a while w/o throttling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
