magg Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 What the crap, you have 52 idle and you have WATER COOLING? Dude, you did something wrong, my Winchester doesn't even go over 40C [got it as low as 26C idle in a 70F room yesterday ] and I'm on air cooling...

Dude, you did something wrong, my Winchester doesn't even go over 40C [got it as low as 26C idle in a 70F room yesterday ] and I'm on air cooling... is yours overclocked? mine is staying at 50c right now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtc_hunter Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 startup voltage set to 1.4v cpu voltage to 1.375v special to 123% should = around 1.64v then reseat your waterblock cause you are way too hot, I have air cooling and I never Ever go over 34c-36c under the heaviest loads at the above settings.

magg Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 Yes, mine is overclocked. Check what it's at in my sig... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdminRUFF Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 i think i might have put to much thermal grease on the waterblock. you think that might be the problem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtc_hunter Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 Take the block off carefully. When you take it off, look at the "foot print" that the block made. That should tell you if it was seated evenly. If the foot print is uneven, then you were not making good contact. Thermal paste should be very thin and even. It is only supposed to fill in microscopic discrepencies in the metal surfaces. More than that just makes for less contact. AS5 is the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdminRUFF Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 i have reste the water block and it looked to be ok. maybe my volts are to high in the bios Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdminRUFF Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 i have reste the water block and it looked to be ok. maybe my volts are to high in the bios kinda lame to quote myself but yes i had the volts both 1.550 the highest! i dropped them botch down to 1.45V and also dropped to 46c!!! almost room temp. 46c=114.8deg. my room temp is 89deg. time to stick the air on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
magg Posted May 15, 2005 Posted May 15, 2005 Holy crap, an 89F room... I would be effin dying. My room hits 80, and I'm like OMG IT'S SO HOT. I just moved into a new apartment down by my college, and the utilities bill hasn't kicked in yet, so I've had the AC cranked 24/7....room is at like 68F lol. Gotta love it.

cronocrash Posted May 15, 2005 Posted May 15, 2005 yeah trying to get the maximum overclock on mininum voltages is key, it will cut your temps down a bunch. i was shocked when i saw that you were at 50C with water cooling. i hit 43C and cut my voltage down a touch and now i top out at 40C on air.
