FatalMelody Posted May 24, 2008 Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) hey, my cpu temp jumps from 45-50c resting to 60 stress. its a q6700 (stock not oc) with Thermalright Ultra -120 eXtreme+ ARCTIC COOLING MX2 (i think thats the heat sink, i might have misspelled it), and a SilenX Ixtrema Pro 120mm x 25mm 11dBA Fan , but i cant control the fans to decrees heat. im at the point that they work silently even when the cpu is tressed, i tried to use uguru but when the temp reaches 50c (the temp i told him to switch to turbo fan) it didn't switch, and i tried to use speedfan to 100% but it still doesn't effect. there is no reason why my cpu will reach that temp in rest, not with the mega cooling i bought (+5 chassis fans + coolermaster 690 chassis). help, how can i lower the temp? and how i can control my fan's speed?

jammin Posted May 24, 2008 Posted May 24, 2008 What fan are you using? Are you sure it's not running at 100% already? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatalMelody Posted May 24, 2008 Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) i wrote what fan im using, and if its running at 100% then there is something wrong, because my ac is on at 19 degrees, the fans is 100% and i have mega heat sink and still my computer is hot, it doesn't suppose to be like this, this computer was planned for oc, its suppose to be cooled when its on stock, but its so hot that im afraid to do oc Edited May 24, 2008 by FatalMelody Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammin Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 (edited) CPU Fan is reading at 1200RPM in your screenshot, which would indicate it is indeed running at full speed according to the Specs Also, in the screenshot, CoreTemp is showing 47 degrees for each core (which seems reasonable considering the load). That suggests the Abit EQ temp is pretty inaccurate if it is showing 60c. Edited May 25, 2008 by jammin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatalMelody Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 ok, so if its not clocked then its 40-45 and sometimes reaching 50. but if i overclock it, how much will it reach?, is it worth overclocking? and the load the was on the picture, was just avast scanning for viruses and itunes, if i play games like crysis im guessing the load will be 100% and 75% like you saw.

That suggests the Abit EQ temp is pretty inaccurate if it is showing 60c. Kind of wraps that all up in a nice, neat package. Overclock it and see what the core temperatures go to.

FatalMelody Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 lol, well now its cooled, but once i turn off the ac, i be it will jump to 50-55c. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatalMelody Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 hi, can anyone explain to me how my system temp is 8c, and my AUX temp is -65c? it wasnt like that before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaGUY Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 Liquid Nitrogen from space must have fell on your computer I'm not sure why that AUX reads so low.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Stew Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 i would guess that speedfan isnt reading properly Aux temps tend not to be that critical IMO, just CPU, GPU and possibly hard drives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatalMelody Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 ok, a few days ago it read just fine, but for some reason he begun to read it wrong. anyway ive got two questions: 1. i did a stress test and the core's temp reached 60c (without overclock), is it risky to overclock it? 2. if i overclock (just raise the fsb, without rising the voltage) will the temp rise? or if i wont change the voltage it will stay the same?
