aleni Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 im increasing my fsb to 118 to make my p4 1.7 gigz becomes 2.01 gigz. im not using any cooler system. my mobo (asus p4b) temp is 40 C, and my cpu temp is 57 C, is it dangereous? system is running very stable this far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 I don't think that it's dangereous it just might not be to good to run at that high of a temp for to long. Your not using any cooling? Dude invest in a decent cpu fan like a thermal take and some artic silver, and it will run cooler and you will be safer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aleni Posted July 2, 2002 Author Share Posted July 2, 2002 that arctic thing is replacing my current fan? or it can be attached on other empty area on the cpu? and how much does it cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted July 2, 2002 Veteran Share Posted July 2, 2002 artic silver is a thermal paste that helps heat transfer by filling in the tiny holes in the surfaces. thermaltake is a brand of fan that would replace the one currently on your processor.

KC Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 well said bro http://www.thermaltake.com/ make sure you buy the right fan, I screwed up once. http://www.articsilver.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ziddey Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 57c isnt too hot since i get it all the time during summer with my 733eb and stock hsf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshalus Veteran Posted July 2, 2002 Veteran Share Posted July 2, 2002 Overclocking anything on your computer without first looking at better cooling is dangerous. Unless you've got a lot of money sitting around to burn on new P4s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted July 2, 2002 Veteran Share Posted July 2, 2002 i know there's a lot of debate, but generally, as long as you are below 60C, you aren't putting any severe strain on your processor. above that, and you'll start to shave hours off it's life, but i doubt you plan on using your processor for however long their expected life is (i forget the approx. number) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aleni Posted July 2, 2002 Author Share Posted July 2, 2002 geezzz scary, im lowerin' the fsb, it's 1.87gigz now, but i noticed that the temperature is just the same eventhough its on default 1.7gigz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 temp is dependent on several things, what your doing at that time how hot it is in the room ect. Here is a link http://processorfinder.intel.com/scripts/l...ALL&PkgType=ALL it has a list of all p4 models and there max temps........... your running a Asus P4b as seen HERE So I am a asuming you have a P4 socket 478 chip in fc-pga2 package. the temps run from 70-76c but that is the "core temp" so on the inside, you are looking at the temp on the surface which will be slightly cooler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aleni Posted July 2, 2002 Author Share Posted July 2, 2002 my room is full air conditioner 24/7, so it is not a problem, btw, i just restarted computer, and now the temperature becomes 40C sweet :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailgreg Posted July 3, 2002 Share Posted July 3, 2002 I would get a better CPU fan/heatsink, but it should be fine :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoLdFuSi0n Posted July 3, 2002 Share Posted July 3, 2002 get some cooling i'm sorry but are you stupid cause you never use stock cooling if your gonna over clock that much especiall a P4 which is kinda expensive.

ramesees Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 Does anyone have a link to a program that monitors CPU temperature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesys Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 I believe that would be dangerous without sufficient cooling.. But with sufficient cooling, it really doesn't matter. My neighbor overclocked his 1.6GHz P4 to 2.45GHz :o :) Originally posted by ramesees Does anyone have a link to a program that monitors CPU temperature? CPUCool.. I don't have the link though.. Sorry.. You can look for it on Yahoo :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zivan56 Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 It should not be dangerous, a 1.6A processor can get above 2Ghz (at least according to 3DGameMan :) ) with a retail cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can look for it on Yahoo :) the 1.6 you talking about is northwood built on 0.13 and that can do it eASY. but the 1.7 is old school willametter 256kb 0.18 that cant go very far.
