The main point there is that there should be no more than a 7C temperature rise in the air that passes through the computer case. If the air temp rise is more than that, you're not moving enough air through the case to provide the cooling necessary. Even the best CPU cooler can't do the job if the air temperature around it is too high. text/html 2004-03-22T16:04:11-05:00 Michael A. http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/23970/?l=1#116965 I used to have those kinds-of temps when I was first overclocking my 2500+. If you get a copper heatsink and fan with some AS5 then the temps will go down. Best of luck. text/html 2004-03-22T12:57:48-05:00 porkchop http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/23970/?l=1#116930 get a better hsf and some arctic silver paste<br /> take a look at some of these<br /> <br /> <a class="ext" href="/action/r/http://www.thermaltake.com/coolers/menu.htm" target="_blank">http://www.thermaltake.com/coolers/menu.htm</a> text/html 2004-03-22T10:22:29-05:00 Dustin Smith http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/23970/?l=1#116909 I just got a new 2500+ the other day, and it seems to run damn hot, or my mb sensor is screwed, runs at about 52c idle! About 58c under load (seti), funny thing is, even OC'd to 3200+ the temps stay about there, maybe a degree or two higher. Not quite perfectly stable at 3200+ tho, think its memory or vcore seeing as the temp is actually lower at load then it was when it was stock with the case fan blowing out (I reversed it)... Anyone know if most people need to boost the vcore to get a 2500+ up there? Or should I wait for a better cpu fan before I fry it. <img src="http://media.hardwareanalysis.com/smilies/smile1.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt=":)" title=":)"> text/html 2004-03-21T22:58:08-05:00 Michael A. http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/23970/?l=1#116759 50 is a little high but it should be okay. What kind of CPU is it and what kind of overclocking are you running? I don't think you should worry to much though. My friend is currently dealing with a 2600+ that likes to toast at almost 70. text/html 2004-03-21T22:57:46-05:00 Ali Mac http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/23970/?l=1#116758 50 is quite high but not dangerous at all, so long as it stays at 50 ur fine text/html 2004-03-21T22:57:03-05:00 Kevin Toal http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/23970/?l=1#116757 I dont think thats too high...I dont like mine going over 55 deg. But it depends on a few different things, like room temp. and air-flow inside your case. ..Mine get's up to about 55 at full load so i think 50 is ok.<br /> text/html 2004-03-21T22:38:16-05:00 David G. http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/23970/?l=1#0 I have CPU temps of 50c at FULL load, when it's idle they are like 33, now this seems to be a big jump. I have TT Silent Boost HSF and was wondering if I should change that fan out? The heatsink is a nice big copper one. 50c is high under full load, correct? <br /> Thanks
