AMD tempetature - too hot?


Recommended Posts

not too sure about this.

what is a standard temp for an athlon xp 2200?

mine is reporting 37C?

not sure what to think of this.

thought, opinions?

thanks

if thats a correct reading its pretty good, ill assume you are on air too and that means its really good. so dont worry about that. when you get up to like 60 degrees celsius id say thats the time to start worrying

if your not running a REALLY GOOD hsf, and your cpu is not the new one that AMD just introduced (i think it was the 0.13micron Thoroughbread???, correct me if im wrong)...

then it actually could b a fault in your mobo, so b carefull and try to use some other means of testing the temp. without using the mobo sensor, somefin like a multimeter?? (im not sure jus suggesting)

btw my 1800+ runs at ~52 with a standard HSF..

my mates 1600+ runs at ~45 with a standard HSF..

and in my field of work, ive never seen a xp2200+ run at 37c with a standard HSF.

so jus be carefull.

amd cpus are supposed to work until 90?Celcius. my proc. is at 60?C too when it does alot of things @ once, normal temp is like 45-50. i have two 6000rpm fans,decent heatink and a 6000rpm cpu cooler (asflon 1800+).

The temp of my 1500+ is 39?C

I run a Zalman 6000CU in a Coolermaster 201MX

I run VCool & Coolmon to check on a MSI K7T266 MoBo.

The temp of my AMD used to be 52?C in a Aopen HQ45 with a Volcano 6.

So cooling is not only the proc.cooling :-)

CPU temp 28C

MB temp 30C

my board is hotter than my proc is....

My AMD 2200+ XP is running at 30C and am only using air but also have a monster air cooling case.

where are you running your computers, in the frezzer, please guys, you are not running your CPUs at room temperatures, water cooling does not even do that good.

I'd upload a screenie of my monitoring software, but I have no where to host it from.

sorry, no Athlon or P4 runs at 30C room temp unless your room temp is around 15C, also did you even think that the software that you use to check your temps is misconfigured

it is physically impossible to have the motherboard temp cooler than the CPU temp, you are wrong

the best you can get is the thermalright AX-7 or the new SK-8

i dont know why thermaltake is so big at neowin, it is a cheaper brand and does do that job, but not the best you can get
